BENEFITS OF FISH
OIL
Everyone definitely heard of fish oil. When we mention about
fish oil, the keyword that come into our mind is Omega 3. Omega 3 contains 2
important fatty acids, namely; eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic
acid (DHA). Regular consumption of these healthy fats (of course with healthy
lifestyle) can help to prevent chronic diseases that are link to the body’s
inflammatory processes. Both EPA and DHA have shown wonderful anti-inflammatory
properties.
Are you taking fish oil right? Are you in the right age to
take fish oil? We have customer who tell
us that the reason she is not taking fish oil, is because she has not reach 40+
year old.
Here are 4 reasons why fish oil should be a regular part of your daily diet,
even <40 years old:

TG are a type of fat that acts as energy stores for the body. However, high
level of TG in the body has been link to the development of heart disease.
2.
Enhances your brain
When I was young, our parents will tell us to eat more fish so that we
can grow up smarter. It is indeed very true! Fish is always known as ‘brain
food’, as DHA is the most abundant fatty acid in the brain. Without sufficient
DHA, the brain tissue will start to deteriorate. Studies also have shown that
diet rich in fish oil help to protect against cognitive decline.
3.
Better eyesight
Ongoing research reveals promising results in the effects of fish oil in
delaying the progress of eye diseases such as macular degeneration and
glaucoma. Both of this disease are not
curable and can cause blinded. Try to take note of the people surrounding you. Those
who consume a lot of fish, might have better eye sight!
4.
Eases menstrual cramps
Research shows that fish oil can help alleviate menstrual cramps, due to
its anti-inflammatory effect. In addition, the need for pain medication can be
reduced or the dose can be lowered.
5. Better skin
Fish oil also helps to moisturize your skin naturally. Fish oil also helps to balance up your hormone, which help to make your skin less oily. Fish oil also help to combat acne by reducing redness and puffiness of acne lesions.
