It is commonly known that Fish oils are a great source of minerals and nutrients that can be used to help the body fight off wear and tear and stay healthy. Fish oils are high in a substance known as Omega 3 which can help with the following:
1. Reduce Pain and Inflammation. Omega 3 fatty acids, improve your inflammatory response – that is combating swelling. This can help with people that may suffer from conditions such as arthritis, or osteoarthritis. The oils may also help with maintaining the lubrication of the joints, such as knees and elbows.
2. Improve brain performance – You may have read that Omega 3s are now being trialled by schools to help improve children’s attention problems, this is because many studies show the powerful effect that fish oil can have on the brain.
3. Improve cardiovascular strength – Omega 3 fatty acids are thought to reduce cholesterol, which can help improve the lifespan of your heart. This is of course a good thing, which is why you should regularly eat mackerel and other types of oily fish in your diet. The fish oil found in the mackerel can help add years to your life expectancy – your heart needs all the help it can get.
4. Lower rates of depression and psychosis – Studies have also shown that Omegas may alleviate the symptoms of depression in some people who take high doses of Omega 3s on a regular basis.

Fish oil was in the New York Times today. The article discussed the possibility of fish oil containing high levels of mercury. The gist of the article is that after many studies most fish oil supplements found on the market do not contain significant levels of mercury. Fish oil dosage can be limited should you think this is a concern.

Diets rich in fish oils can help boost children’s immune system. This recent report in the Journal of Pediatrics gives more support for us fish oil proselytizers. My only fear, with children, in giving them lots of fish are the potential toxins. This is why I prefer supplements for myself (good supplements strip toxins out). I do not know of any supplement for children with the appropriate fish oil dosage. Fish oil can thin the blood and certain supplements have toxins determinal to children’s health, so be sure to consult your doctor before even considering such an action.

We hear all the time about people taking designer drugs to improve their cholesterol levels. Sounds great, right? Pop a pill and be happy. I am not trying to make a hard statement on perscription drugs here, but what I will say is that diet can play a huge role in helping lower your cholesterol level. One of the main ways to do so is increase the percentage of omega-3 fatty acids that you take. Of course here, we talk a lot about finding the right fish oil dosage for you, but you can certainly start with your own diet. Take that responsibility first. Want to pop a pill, fish oil or perscription (obviously I prefer the natural remedy), fine, but also take some personal responsibility as well.

Fish Oil came under review in 2005 when the European Union tightened its standards on fish oil dosage and fish oil supplements. The group of nations decided that it wanted to limit the amount of dioxins and toxins in fish oil supplements. At first, this caused a backlash against the supplement as possibly dangerous. However, most producers were able to use stripping technology to come in well below the new EU standards. When looking at supplements, check for ones that are EU GMP certified like Purity Products’ Ultra – Pure Omega 3 Fish Oil
