Omega 3
There is almost no part of your body that Omega 3 fatty acids don’t help.  The long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA)  in Omega 3 are good for virtually every symptom associated with aging, including preventing heart disease, lowering the “bad” LDL cholesterol and raising the “good” HDL cholesterol, lowering inflammation levels in the body to prevent or lessening the impact of arthritis, and improving brain function while lowering the risk for developing Alzheimer’s disease.

Brain function
There’s a reason why fish has been called brain food.  The gray matter of the brain has a high concentration of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and requires a steady supply for proper functioning.  DHA helps the brain cell membranes to function properly.  By keeping it bathed in DHA, you can help prevent the problems associated the aging, such as mood disorders, memory loss and even Alzheimer’s disease.

Heart Health
Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) remains the number one killer of both men and women in the U.S.  Each year, more than 500,000 Americans die of heart attacks caused by CHD.  The essential fatty acids in Omega 3 oils, especially EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), help keep the walls of your coronary arteries soft and supple.  Eating foods rich in EPA is one of the best things you can do for your heart.
