Omega- is a prefix derived from the Greek letter omega, primarily used in chemistry and biology to indicate the position of a double bond in fatty acids, counting from the methyl end of the chain. This usage has become prominent in modern nutrition science, where it highlights essential fats like omega-3 that play key roles in health, though it's often misunderstood in everyday contexts as just a buzzword for 'healthy' foods.
