Physiological and biochemical aspects of using black lion fly larvae as a source of biologically active and nutrient substances by M. S. Talan, I. S. Dokuchaeva, M. A. Mukhamed'yarov

“…Introduction. Functional foods are products that, in addition to taste and nutritional value, have a physiological effect on the human body. ω-6 and ω-3 fatty acids, when consumed in the form of triglycerides from various food sources, undergo digestion in the small intestine, allowing absorption and transport into the blood and subsequent assimilation into the body, including the brain, retina, heart and other tissues. …”
