Fish oil benefits
The benefits of fish oil have largely been debated by scientists of traditional medicine and homeopathy, and while some of the myths about its extraordinary benefits have been dispersed over time, the fact remains that, as a dietary supplement, fish oil is still one of the main sources for Omega-3 essential fatty acids, and is still being prescribed for patients with Omega-3 deficits worldwide.
It is a known fact that great health problems can occur from an unbalanced diet, and the lack of Omega-3 essential fatty acids makes no exception to the case. On the contrary, Rheumatoid Arthritis, breast or prostate cancer, heart disease, strokes, psoriasis and depression can be caused by a low Omega-e factors intake, and can also be prevented or controlled after being administered an Omega-3 dietary supplement, in the form of fish oil (or other Omega-3 supplements on the market).
Research over the past few decades has been conducted in order to attest the validity of fish oil as a source of Omega-3 fatty acids and many of the results show that despite the (relatively reduced) side-effects of using this product, its benefits are undeniable.
The necessity for such supplements appears from the fact that foods specific for the western culture dont have a high content of Omega-3 essential fatty acids (while they abound in Omega-6 essential fatty acids). It is only relatively recently that fish based foods, seaweed foods and shellfish foods (the main sources for Omega-3 fatty acids) have been introduced into wide circulation, and it is still only a small number of people that can afford or are inclined to consume such products. As such, for the rest of the population, the need for supplements to make up for that lack in their diet has become apparent.
Fish oil can bring your cholesterol and triglycerides levels back to normal. It will also keep them there if you keep taking it. It has quite a big positive influence on your heart and coronary system. Fish oil can also prevent illnesses like lupus, kidney malfunctions, Crohns disease, prostate and colon cancer and strokes.
Another disease where fish oil can be helpful is the prevention of the onset of schizophrenia. Especially if fish oil is included in the diet of young patients that have only shown the first signs of schizophrenia it seems that fish oil helps control this disease or even reverse the symptoms. Studies on this matter have not been fully confirmed yet.
Studies have also shown that the lack of Omega-3 acids and the resulting chemical imbalances can trigger depression. In cases like these the use of fish oil as a supplement to the diet can also very much improve patients condition.
Fish oil is a very effective supplement to your diet but it is not some sort of a miracle cure for all your problems. So do not take any action without consulting your doctor about your condition and if taking fish oil can be beneficial to your health or not. - 17274
