Found primarily in cold water fish Omega 3 Fatty Acids are a form of `polyunsaturated fats which unlike saturated fats (associated with heart disease) are actually good for your health although the body cannot make them on its own - they must be obtained from outside sources (i.e. food or supplements). For these reasons Omega 3 (and Omega 6) Fatty Acids are called `Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs). Researchers are constantly announcing new benefits of supplementing with Omega Oils. In May 2005 an article in the Daily Mail entitled The Cleverness Capsule revealed how omega oils made a big improvement in concentration memory and mood in children. More recently (6th October 2005) the BBC aired a Horizon programme (Could fish make my child smart?) which investigated the many reported health benefits of omega oils. It is important to maintain a healthy balance between Omega 3s and Omega 6s (another source of EFAs) as current reports state that most peoples diets consists of far more Omega 6s than Omega 3s. Experts recommend that the balance needs redressing and that for the body to thrive a healthy diet should consist of roughly one to four times Omega 6 Fatty Acids than Omega 3s. Without a good supply of Omega 3s the body will use saturated fat to construct cell membranes making them less flexible and thereby making it harder for the heart to return to a resting state. In addition Omega 3 has also been found to: Help prevent blood from clotting by making platelets in blood less likely to clump together (a causative factor in heart attacks); Help to lower blood fats (triglycerides) blood pressure and cholesterol levels; Aid normal growth and development as well as play a crucial role in brain function (e.g. memory concentration and mood) by enhancing the ability of cells to `communicate with one another in the brain. Extensive research also indicates that Omega 3 Fatty Acids could even reduce the inflammation associated with rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis. Further benefits include: balancing hormones improving the immune system and keeping skin hair and nails healthy.
