Omega 3's
Omegas 3’s are mostly found in Fish oil, krill oil, and Flax Seed oil. Unfortunately, almost every American is lacking in Omega 3’s due to the society we live in. We eat foods that deplete Omega 3’s from our body and that are overly high in Omega 6’s. Omegas 3’s are essential fatty acids; they are considered the healthy fats, the fats our bodies need. Omegas 6’s are so overly abundant in our diet that it is essential we balance the Omega 3: Omega 6 ratio by consuming more Omega 3 fatty acids.
Some of the benefits of incorporating Omega 3’s in your diet include:
Heart health
Reduced Inflammation
Brain food
Reduced risk of Alzheimer’s
Good for your skin
Lower Blood pressure
Natural blood thinner
Lower Cholesterol
Lowers triglycerides
Helps prevent cancer
Some of my favorite supplements for Omega 3’s include Neptunes Krill oil, Metagenics OmegaGenics EPA-DHA 720, and Carlson’s fish oil.
