Omega-3

A vital set of nutrients required for a healthy body, are the fatty acids.These nutrients serve several functions, including the make-up of the majority of the protective membrane that surrounds every one of our cells. They are also used by the body as major building blocks for the creation of body fat, needed in appropriate amounts to cushion and protect our internal organs and keep us warm. However, not all fatty acids provide the same benefits. Scientific research has linked the consumptionof saturated fatty acids, found predominantly in animal fat, with increased levels of cholesterol and a higher risk of heart attacks, while the unsaturated variety from vegetable oils do not have that effect. Forever Living Products has formulated a superior nutritional supplement to take advantage of the latest research into this important area of nutrition. By combining Omega-3 with Omega-9, it provides a safe, balanced, mercury-free supplement that can favorably support healthy blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Forever Arctic-Sea Super Omega-3 is a breakthrough in terms of a balanced supplement, using both vegetable and mercury-free pharmaceutical-grade fish oils to derive the benefit of each. Omega-3 is an essential polyunsaturated fatty acid found in salmon and other seafood. Omega-9 is the unsaturated fatty acid found in vegetable products, like olive oil. Each softgel has an EPA content of 225 mg and 150 mg each of DHA and oleic acid, all of which are lackingin most Western diets. The benefits of EPA and DHA include supporting the circulatory system.They are needed for other functions, including the development and health of the eyes and brain, and can support proper joint function. The fantastic reputation of Omega-3 has had a good influence on our healthy diet and has been very popular for the last 10 years. Many research studies confirm this statement.

What fatty acid is?

n3 fatty acids (popularly referred to as 3 fatty acids or omega-3 fatty acids) are a family of unsaturated fatty. Important nutritionally, essential n3 fatty acids are: -linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The human body cannot synthesize n3 fatty acids de novo; it means these essential nutrients must be obtained from food. The healthy form of Omega-3 may be found in fish oils.

Health benefits facts:

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration gave "qualified health claim" stating that "supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA [n3] fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease." People with certain circulatory problems, such as varicose veins, benefit from fish oil. Fish oil stimulates blood circulation, increases the breakdown of fibrin, a compound involved in clot and scar formation, and additionally has been shown to reduce blood pressure. There is strong scientific evidence, that n3 fatty acids significantly reduce blood triglyceride levels and regular intake reduces the risk of heart attack. Some benefits have been reported in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and cardiac arrhythmias. There is promising preliminary evidence, that n-3 fatty acids supplementation might be helpful in cases of depression and anxiety. Studies report highly significant improvement from n-3 fatty acids supplementation alone and in conjunction with medication. EPA is a promising treatment for prevention of major coronary events, especially nonfatal coronary events.

It was found that those infants supplemented with fish oil had improvement in immune function maturation with no apparent reduction in immune activation. There is also a study published regarding n3 supplementation in children with learning and behavioral problems. The study in 2007 has found improvement in poor developmental health with essential fatty acid supplementation. Those who follow a Mediterranean-style diet tend to have less heart disease, higher HDL ("good")cholesterol levels and higher proportions of n3 in tissue highly unsaturated fatty acids. Similar to those who follow a Mediterranean diet, Arcticdwelling Inuit - who consume high amounts of n3 fatty acids from fatty fish - also tend to have higher proportions of n3, increased HDL cholesterol and decreased triglycerides (fatty material that circulates in the blood) and less heart disease. A study examining whether omega-3 exerts neuroprotective action in Parkinson's this research exhibited could show promise for future research in the prevention of Parkinson's disease. In 2008 a German study suggested that Omega-3 fatty acids have a positive effect on atopic dermatitis.

Summary:
