"fish oil decreases the chances of
getting heart disease"



Heart disease is a multifactorial illness where variables like age, gender, smoking, weight, diet, genes, stress and exercise influence the outcome. Nevertheless, the factors you can influence, like smoking, weight, diet, stress and exercise, have a major impact. You could take in consideration the food we ingest as one of the things we can change to improve our health. Specifically, eating fish high in Omega 3 fatty acids or, in its defect, omega 3 supplements, for the following reasons.

Why Fish Oil is Essential for our Hearts:

  • The triglycerides go down, as much as 30-50%, subject to the amount of fish oil taken.
  • Blood clots are less prone to form, anti platelet aggregation, blood is less sticky.
  • Blood pressure drops slightly.
  • Improves circulation to all parts of the body. Specially important as we age.
  • Heart beat is more stable, less prone to arrhythmias, sudden cardiac arrhythmia(death) is reduced a much as 50%.
  • Inflammation, a marker of aging, is reduced in all the circulatory system, making the endothelium( the inner layer of the arteries) less inflammated, less prone to injuries and obstructions, that is, less heart attacks, less strokes.
  • Rises HDL Cholesterol (Good cholesterol).

    All of the above is accomplished by a mechanism where if there is a balance in the amounts of Omega 3(from fish oils) and Omega 6( from grains and grain oils), our body regulates itself to make all of cells to function in balance, that is , the cell membranes in your body become more elastic and they can transfer and receive hormones, food and energy faster and more efficiently.

    In our modern diets, the amounts of omega 6 we normally eat have escalated 20 to 50 times the human body evolved with, due to the enormous quantities of grains modern man has been consuming since the invention of agriculture, and specially in the last 100 years.

    In short, Omega 6 fatty acids promotes, inflammation, thrombosis, arrhytmia, high triglycerides, high blood pressure, etc. Omega 3 balances its effects. This is very important to remember.
