Health and Fitness
Healthy eating habits are an important part of an active lifestyle.  The health benefits of Omega 3 fatty acids are not exclusively for the very young or the 50 plus lifestyle, but for those who are physically fit either through fitness training or through playing sports, mountain climbing, bicycling or whatever your favorite activity is. 

Omega 3
Omega 3 fatty acids are not just for the young and old.  The same benefits to the brain, heart and joints are good for active adults as well. 

Heart health
Omega 3 fatty acids are beneficial for your heart, keeping the lining of your blood vessels flexible while fighting the buildup of plaque. 

Brain function
The gray matter of the brain has a high concentration of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and requires a steady supply for proper functioning.   DHA can help improve your concentration while also helping to prevent mood disorders like depression. 

Joint function
When you exercise, you place a strain on your joints.  Omega 3 (EPA+DHA) has natural anti-inflammatory properties.  Eat plenty of Omega 3 rich foods to help keep your joints lubricated and shorten your recovery time from workouts.

For a great general overview of the role of Omega 3 fatty acids in promoting health, see the University of Maryland Medical Center website: http://www.umm.edu/altmed/articles/omega-3-000316.htm

The Mayo Clinic provides a list of the medical evidence for the health benefits of Omega 3 and gives each on a letter grade from A through F based on how well the scientific evidence supports the claim.
