Most Americans are lacking in the wonderful fat called Omega-3. This nutrient is found in foods like cold-water ocean fish (salmon, mackeral, herring), and lake trout. It can also be consumed in the form of walnuts, flaxseeds, spinach, avocado, canola oil and soy products. A diet rich in those foods will provide the added benefits of Omega-3 fats that include:

Fighting off aches and pains: Omega-3 beats inflammation.
Researchers found that two-thirds of patients suffering from chronic neck and back pain were able to stop their anti-inflammatory medication after taking Omega-3 fish-oil supplements for 20-30 days.

Keeping off the weight: Omega-3 keeps moods stable and prevents the need to binge on high-fat foods…….

Feeling fine: Another form of Omega-3 called DHA makes up 25 percent of the body’s brain fat and manages the production and flow of serotonin-the feel-good chemical. People who suffer from depression are often DHA-deficient.

Breathing easy: Omega-3 helps reduce the inflammation associated with asthma. Patients in a recent Indiana study took Omega-3 supplements and were found to be better able to control exercise-triggered symptoms of asthma.

Staying heart healthy: Omega-3 may also lower blood pressure and reduce clotting. And because Omega-3 also lowers blood sugar, it may be a key component in fighting diabetes.

Important in increasing the Omega-3s in your diet is also decreasing the Omega-6s which actually increase inflammation and compete with the precious Omega-3s for your body’s attention. So, for best results, increase your consumption of Omega-3-rich fish, plant-based foods and fish-oil supplements while decreasing Omega-6 foods like crackers, chips, and full-fat salad dressings.
