All nutrient deficiencies will have a harmful effect on your body in one way or another…
But when you’re talking about Omega-3 essential fatty acids (EPA and DHA), it can be a matter of life or death!
Here’s why these crucial fats can literally be a lifesaver for you.
Heart attack prevention and recovery
Studies have shown that getting sources of Omega-3 EFAs can lower your risk of a fatal heart attack by as much as 10 percent!
Their natural anti-inflammatory action helps counteract plaque buildup in your arteries and encourages smooth, healthy blood flow.
In addition, when they are taken AFTER a heart attack, these fats can also significantly improve your chances of survival and help your heart heal from the trauma.
And Omega-3 fish oil has been proven to effectively lower blood pressure, cholesterol and triglycerides too—all of which means a healthier cardiovascular system—without dangerous high blood pressure drugs or statins.
Killing cancer
Studies have found that Omega-3 fish oil can help to prevent and kill various cancers, including colon, prostate and breast cancers!
Research has also shown that it helps make traditional allopathic cancer drugs more effective, plus it’s also a valid stand-alone therapy in natural cancer treatment.
Beyond our top 2 killers
The benefits of Omega-3 fish oil go way beyond protecting you from our top 2 killers! Here are some examples:
Brain and mental health
60 percent of your brain is composed of fats, and 90 percent of those fats are DHA.
So it should be no surprise that a deficiency in Omega-3s has been associated with ADHD, Alzheimer’s, anxiety and depression!
And all the Ritalin, Prozac and Xanax in the world won’t change that.
Weight loss
Studies have shown that a combination of fish oil supplements and regular exercise can reduce body fat while also improving heart and metabolic health.
Youthful appearance
Omega-3 fish oil nourishes your skin and helps skin maintain a smooth, elastic texture. There is also evidence that it prevents wrinkles and counteracts the aging process!
Plus fish oil has also been shown to reduce symptoms of skin problems like eczema and psoriasis too.
Eye health
Fish oil can reduce your risk of macular degeneration and cataracts, as well as diabetes-related eye problems.
Fertility
Studies have shown that the Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil can improve fertility in both men and women.
Asthma
Omega-3 fats have been shown to help reduce asthma symptoms in children and adults.
Pregnancy
The human brain undergoes its most rapid development as a fetus in the womb. During this period, the fetus is completely dependent upon its mother to supply the EPA and DHA it needs.
Easing arthritis
Research has shown that Omega-3 fish oil supplements worked just as well as NSAIDs in reducing arthritis pain, plus they are a FAR safer alternative!
Animal vs. plant sources—does it make a difference?
Although all Omega-3 fatty acids support your health in some way, the superstars—EPA and DHA--are only found in animal (marine) sources of Omega-3 fatty acids—specifically fish oils.
Unfortunately, deficiency in these crucial fats is very common because fish is not something the average person eats every day!
So the best way to ensure your body maintains healthful levels of Omega-3 fats is to supplement with a top-grade, purified fish oil formula like VitalMega-3.
Every 2-capsule serving of VitalMega-3 delivers a soothing 1,200 mg of Omega-3 fatty acids, including 600 mg of Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and 400 mg of Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA), which is in the optimal 3:2 ratio recommended by health experts to provide the most benefits.
Take advantage of Nature’s perfect anti-inflammatory—Omega-3 EFAs—and reap the health benefits for years to come!
To your health,
