YOU Need More Omega3 Fats In Your Diet. But How?

Do you recognize the benefits of Omega3 fats in your diet? If not you're one of a diminishing group of people who are not yet aware that intake of Omega3 fats is a very important aspect of good health.

What are omega3 fats? They are fatty acids that are found in various sources including fish and other seafoods, and which have a wide range of benefits to our overall health and in particular to some specific medical conditions.

To give you an example the intake of Omega 3 fats has been shown, through various studies, to help with the following conditions: Improvements in allergies, visual accuity, brain function, skin health and various skin disorders, diabetes, inflammatory bowel diseases, some cancers and womens disorders as well as a range of benefits to heart health, and more.

Can you imagine that all that can come from a simple oil found in fish and seafood? And it all started with studies into why the Eskimos, who live almost exclusively on fish, have such good health in so many health areas.

Sadly although Omega3 fats are found in several sources it is really only in seafoods that they are found in any great quantity, and the American diet has slowly been moving away from eating fish. Our per capita consumption of fish is going down, as is our per capita consumption of Omega 3 fatty acids. This isn't good for our health, and experts know that something has to be done about this to halt the increase in some diseases that now ravage so many of us.

So if you're in need some good Omega3 sources to improve your intake of these essential fatty acids, where would you get your good fats from? Well of course you could just eat more fish. But it's not that easy.

Some fish is much higher in Omega3 fats than others. And many fish are now contaminated with pollutants that we, people, have spewed into our oceans over the years and accumulate in the upper end of the food chain fish, like Tuna, that are high in good fats. Pollutants like mercury and PCBs that we don't want to be eating.

And fish is getting more and more expensive.

So if we can't realistically add more fish to our diet what other Omega3 sources do we have? Fortunately there are some excellent Omega supplements available that are much freer of the pollutants found in fish because they are made from refined fish oil, or fish oil that has had the pollutants removed. Refined fish oils are exceptionally clean sources of Omega3 fats, and when put into supplements for us to take daily are an excellent source of good fats to add to our diet.

But like anything there are good Omega supplements and there are bad ones, and working out which is which isn't easy.

Either way you need more fish oils in your diet for your health's sake.
