Fish oil contains EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). Both EPA and DHA are known as essential omega-3 fatty acids because the body cannot make them on its own. Humans rely on strictly on their diet and/or nutritional supplements to meet their daily requirement of Omega-3 fatty acids. Fish oil provides one source of these important Omega-3 nutrients. Fish oil supplements are derived from a variety of sources, including mackerel, herring, tuna, salmon, cod liver, halibut, whale blubber and seal blubber. Fish oils may benefit the skin, the brain, cardiovascular system and lot more. Fish oils offer high concentrations of polyunsaturated fats called omega-3-fatty acids which have myriad healing powers.
Many studies find some beneficial effect of
omega-3 fatty acids, especially against heart attacks. Fish oil benefits happen as a result of the long chain omega 3 fatty acids EPA and
DHA found in Fish oil. These are not found in flax seed or other vegetable oils. Scientific evidence reveals a diet rich in long chain omega-3 fatty acids helps support healthy joint movement, a healthy immune system, a balanced mood and sense of well being, healthy kidneys, a healthy brain, strength and stamina and helps maintain cholesterol levels that are already within the normal range.
Scientists are constantly discovering new health benefits for Fish oils. In addition to its more notable properties as heart-healing substances, there's evidence that the fatty acids in Fish oil ease menstrual cramps and the pain and heavy bleeding of endometriosis. Omega-3s may even aid mental disorders such as schizophrenia. Preliminary findings in people with manic depression (bipolar disorder) link fish oil supplementation to fewer mood swings. The beneficial effects of omega 3 Fish oil on coronary heart disease (CHD) have been researched for more than two decades. Omega 3 fish oil; has important metabolic effects, such as inhibiting platelet aggregation and lowering serum triglyceride levels, which could play a role in the prevention of CHD. Fish and Fish oil, rich sources of omega 3 fatty acid, have sparked extreme interest in both epidemiological studies, which recommend a beneficial result on coronary heart disease
(CHD), and metabolic ward studies, which show a remarkable recovery in lipid profiles in hyperlipidemic patients. The American Heart Association recommends healthy people eat omega 3 fatty acid from fish and plant sources to protect their hearts. Increasing omega 3 fatty acid intake through foods is preferable. Intake of omega 3 fats, especially from Fish oil, may decrease blood pressure and thin the blood. Omega 3 Fish oils are considered anti-inflammatory and helpful for arthritis, asthma, depression and bipolar disease. In some studies Omega 3 relieves both arthritis pain and inflammation. Fish oil protect the heart by preventing blood clots or keeping other fats from injuring the arterial walls. They not only relax arteries but also help to decrease constriction of arteries and thickening of blood. There is now clear evidence that dietary supplementation of omega-3 fatty acid is essential for normal eye and brain development. Deficiency of omega-3
long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs) in humans has been shown to produce subtle adverse effects on visual and neural function.
Extensive scientific research has concluded that Omega 3 fish oil uses include:
Omega 3 Fish oil uses as an anti-inflammatory treatment for conditions such as Rheumatoid Arthritis, Menstrual Pain, Lupus, Immune Response, Hypertension, Diabetes & Cancer. Fish oil may be helpful for various psychiatric conditions. Fish oil helps in Lowering LDL (bad) cholesterol levels in the body. Fish oil aids in stopping the buildup of fatty deposits (triglycerides) in the arteries. Fish oil Increase the body's HDL (good) cholesterol level. Fish oil reduces inflammation in the blood. Fish oil has also been used to treat conditions such as depression, eczema, IBD, macular degeneration and arthritis. Fish oil benefits the heart significantly, as well as the rest of the body.
Consuming excessive amount of Fish oil capsules can result in excessive bleeding, gastrointestinal distress, anemia, or strokes. Other possible adverse effects are very high doses of fish oils may cause your body to emit a slightly fishy odor.
