Omega-3s For Your Health

omega-3Many research institutions show that omega-3s play an important role in central nervous system, cognitive, cardiovascular, joint, immune, and metabolic function.

The two major health promoting omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, EPA and DHA, have been shown to promote good physical and emotional health, reduce the risk of cardiac disease, and exert powerful anti-inflammatory effects. They can be found in certain cold-water fish, such as salmon, tuna, and mackerel. Unfortunately, they also contain high levels of mercury, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), dioxins, or other contaminants, achieving an optimal amount of omega-3s through fish alone raises serious safety concerns.

Omega-3 supplements are free of environmental contaminants. They offer a safe, alternative way to obtain the health-promoting benefits of EFAs. The experts agree that a highly purified omega-3 supplement is the safest and most efficient way to get your omega-3s.

Not all omega-3 supplements are created equal. Most omega-3 products on store shelves are full of lard and other bi-products that can be dangerous. Place a few of your current omega-3 supplements in your freezer for 24-hours. If they turn white and cloudy, it is a sign of lard content, which means impurity.
