OMEGA-3 is the answer to so much!
We read about the benefits of omega-3s almost daily.  Then we read that it may not be the end-all and be-all it is claimed to be.
So what?  What it all comes down to is that omega-3s and the sources for omega-3 will give you benefits of some kind and will not harm you!
The list of benefits from omega-3 fatty acids keep accumulating and those benefits are remarkable:  anti-inflammatory oils lubricate muscles, promote fertility, lower blood pressure, protect vision, help prevent dementia, cut the risk of some cancers, ease pain, reduce inflammation of osteo- and rheumatoid arthritis, promote weight loss and improve your mood. They’re an elixir for life in one big, or three small, capsules!
Try this idea proposed by Drs. Oz and Roizen: Three 3-ounce servings a week of salmon or trout. And eat omega-3-rich avocados, walnuts and flax, too. You want to make sure you get 900 mg of omega-3s a day through diet and supplements.
Another source is algae-based omega-3 supplements. If you get them in 300 mg capsules, you’ll take three a day. I like them because they avoid potential toxins such as mercury and PBCs that can be in fish-derived oils. They also deliver plenty of DHA — one form of omega-3 that readily converts into the other, called EPA.
Two more pieces of big news: Omega-3s may be an alternative to antidepressants (and their side effects) for those ages 12 to 25. And researchers at Harvard have amped up the pain and anti-inflammation benefits of omega-3s with what they call resolvins. In the lab, they’re now 1,000 to 10,000 more times effective than morphine as a pain reliever that stops inflammation in its tracks.

There’s nothing fishy here. It’s plain and simple: Get your DHA omega-3s!
