For years we have been told about the benefits of fish oil. The average baby boomer can attest to the grief of having to take that daily dose of cod liver oil, because Mom said so.
Well, it turns out Mom was correct about the value of fish oil, but she was wrong about the source of that fish oil.
The liver of any animal is where toxins gather as they are removed from the body. That is what the liver does--removes toxins. So eating the liver or oil from the liver can be a big mistake.
We have to be kind to Mom this wasn't common knowledge years ago and fish didnt carry any where near as much toxicity as they do today, nor was were these facts understood so well.
Over the last 2 decades a ton of research has been devoted to the study of the 'omega 3 essential fatty acids including DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) & EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid). Science has learned these nutrients are absolutely essential for good health. Our western diet can be lacking in omega 3s.
DHA & EPA can be found in small quantities in a few foods. By far the greatest source is cold water ocean fish. And the benefits of fish oil derived from this source are mind boggling.
Omega 3 fish oil has been shown to clearly help in the prevention and treatment of:
Heart disease
Strokes
Lupus
Crohns Disease
Colon Cancer
Kidney Disorders
High Blood Pressure
Diabetes
Depression
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Other research shows--one of the most significant benefits of fish oil is the slowing of beginnings arrhythmia and prevention of sudden heart attack.
Evidence gathered shows that folks who eat fish on a weekly basis, reduce their chance of sudden heart attack by up to 70%
EPA omega 3 fatty acid helps reduce blood clotting. At the same time the combination of DHA & EPA dramatically slows the speed of diseases like atherosclerosis (plaque deposits forming inside arteries)
Another benefit of fish oil, it has been shown to lower triglycerides and LDL (bad) cholesterol levels while maintaining proper levels of HDL (good) cholesterol. Unlike most statin drugs which tend to lower all cholesterol levels--Good & Bad.
Omega 3 DHA fish oil has the added benefit of enhancing brain function. Your brain requires fatty acids to work properly and if it cant find omega 3 fatty acids it will use any fatty acid it can get.
With so much BAD fat in our modern western diet it easy to miss out the quality that omega 3s bring.
How can you guarantee you are getting the right amount of DHA & EPA omega 3s? Especially if you hate eating fish.
Simply start a program of omega 3 fish oil capsules each day. One in the morning and one in the evening. Is fish oil a miracle cure? Absolutely not! But it will help you to look (yes it also improves the look of skin) and feel better -- If you give it time!
