Omega 3 oil – as fish oil. – is a supplement every child or adult should be taking.
The main benefit of fish oil is that it reduces inflammation. And inflammation is linked to most degenerative diseases – cancer., heart disease, Alzheimer’s, diabetes.
An adult needs from 1-2 grammes of EPA plus DHA daily. This is not 1-2 grammes of fish oil; but 1-2 grammes of EPA + DHA. To work out how much DHA. and EPA is in your omega 3 oil you need to read the label. You might need 6-7 capsules a day of fish oil to achieve this intake.
This amount of EPA and DHA has the best anti-inflammatory effect. It should be taken daily – as should a top quality multi-vitamin/mineral supplement.
Take your fish oil daily, every day. It is possible to get it delivered to you monthly so you never run out.
The best vegetarian source is linseed oil (flax seed oil) although the omega 3 oils in this supplement are not as easily available as those in fish oil.
