Your Good Health

Millions of people have a nutrient deficiency they don't even know about — not enough omega-3 essential fatty acids (EFAs) in their diets. Most North Americans eat plenty of foods containing omega-6 oils (from meats and most vegetable oils) but not nearly enough of the important omega-3s. A balance between these fatty acids is important for good health. A dietary lack of omega-3s has been linked to serious health conditions such as arthritis, stroke, high blood pressure, skin diseases, diabetes and an increased risk for heart disease.

Cardiovascular disease is primarily a disease of the blood vessels that supply the heart with oxygen and nutrients. Atherosclerosis, or the hardening of the arteries due to buildup of plaque and cholesterol, can severely restrict the flow of oxygen and blood to this most important muscle. Risk factors for heart attack and stroke include high cholesterol levels, high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes and lack of exercise. Hundreds of studies show that the essential fatty acids found in fish oil can lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels thus reducing the risk factors for cardiovascular disease.

Most importantly, essential fatty acids support cellular health. A diet deficient in omega-3s, particularly EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexanoic acid) that are found in fish, can affect cell membranes so they lose their ability to hold water, vital nutrients, and electrolytes. They can also lose their ability to communicate with other cells and to respond appropriately to regulating hormones. Because cell membrane dysfunction affects nearly every aspect of health, the protective effects of omega-3 fatty acids are extremely important - for every body.
