Staying Healthy with Omegas
Filed Under (Insurance) by ravi on 02-01-2010
Well, it has been a while since I revamped by diet. But just last week, during the Christmas when I went to lunch with a friend, he told me about Omega 3.
Yeah, I hadn’t heard of that either. But since my friend had recently completed a course in nutrition and diet, I just had to listen to him.
He told me that Omega 3 is a fatty acid that the body requires but it can not be produced by the human body. There are some particular food items only like fish oil (yes, they are supposed to be really rich in Omega 3, according to my friend).
Omega 3 helps our body in controlling our cholesterol levels (which ultimately results in lesser risk of a heart disease), prevents allergies and certain types of cancer.
I wanted to verify this information and I searched on the internet and my friend was correct. You can also see the information at Omega3.org
So, friends, if you are health conscious like me, I would recommend you to please go through the information about Omega 3 and make necessary adjustments in your diet.
I, for one, have started consuming more walnuts and fish oil. And so should you! To find more information on the subject please visit Omega3.org.
