Fish Oil & Supplements

As an added health and wellness supplement, there is still one best seller, which will probably continue to be the best seller as long as we live, and that is the omnipresent multi vitamin. That little multipurpose wonder that gives us a little bit of each important vitamin, like B vitamins, iron, folic acid, vitamin C and other essential ones that some diets may be lacking so that we can have an all together more well rounded nutritional intake. However, some people forget that just popping a multi vitamin does not make up for a diet lacking in these essential minerals and vitamins, but that’s for a whole ‘nother conversation on a different day.
I think this is the reason why they call fish “brain food”, because the omega 3 fatty acids in certain fish, and supplements, actually help to stabilize your blood sugar longer. This is also why fish is an excellent dieting food, because it keeps you full longer, and keeps the brain from sending those “feed me” signals to your stomach.

There are also of course, the more intangible, but incredibly all important benefits that omega 3’s have on helping to lower blood cholesterol levels and helping with circulatory health, which benefits the heart and helps prevent heart disease and strokes. If you don’t yet take a good omega 3 product, then it’s well worth looking into, I’d be surprised if you don’t notice several benefits within a few short weeks.
