Omega 3 Fatty Acids
Now a lot of us who are middle aged and overweight have to worry about when exercising, “I might have a heart attack or a stroke.” I have heard it from dozens of my clients. In a way they are right on the money. Having high amounts of fat and bad eating habits can cause clogged arteries. With clogged arteries heart attacks can occur among other things. With Omega 3 is in your diet you can eliminate so much just from this supplement alone. For example ill make a list of what this single element can do for you.
-Reduces inflammation of the entire body
-Keeps your blood from clotting excessively
-Eliminates the risk of becoming obese
-Helps prevent cancer cell growth
So are you blown away yet? If so I haven’t even hit the tip of what else it can do. Omega 3s play a huge role in prevention/ treatment of the following:
-Alzheimer’s disease
-Asthma
-Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
-Bipolar disorder
-Cancer
-Cardiovascular disease
-Depression
-Diabetes
-Eczema
-High blood pressure
-Huntington’s disease
-Lupus
-Migraine headaches
-Multiple sclerosis
-Obesity
-Osteoarthritis
-Osteoporosis
-Psoriasis
-Rheumatoid arthritis
Where Can I Find Omega 3s?
Naturally they are found in salmon, flaxseed, walnuts, mustard seed, cabbage, and much more. But instead of doing that, I would suggest running to your local market and picking up a fish oil pill, or a flaxseed oil. I recommend the pills they are much easier to put down then the liquid form. I recommend these at any age. Mainly to the middle aged crowd. Especially those who are overweight.
