FAQs
Q. Why should we include omega 3 fats in our diet?
A. We cannot produce these important nutrients in our body, therefore we must get them from our diet. Thirty percent of the food we eat should come from good fats, and provide these omega 3 nutrients. . Omega-3 fatty acids can be found in fish, such as salmon, tuna, and halibut, other marine life such as algae and krill, certain plants (including purslane), and nut oils. But many of these sources are not eaten or are high in toxins and heavy metals such as mercury. Scientists are now recommending supplementation to make up for shortfalls. Also known as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), omega-3 fatty acids play a crucial role in brain function as well as normal growth and development. Omega 3’s also play are role in many health concerns and functions such as cholesterol, blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, Alzheimer’s, memory, depression, ADD/ADHD, mental health, arthritis, skin health, weight loss, PMS, menopause, allergies, asthma, immune function, bone health, and eye health.
Q. How do you determine omega 3 deficiency?
A. Recent statistics indicate that nearly 99% of people in the North America do not eat enough omega 3 fatty acids. However, the symptoms of omega 3 fatty acid deficiency are very vague, and can often be attributed to some other health conditions or nutrient deficiencies.
Consequently, few people (or their physicians, for that matter) realize that they are not consuming enough omega 3 fatty acids. The symptoms of omega 3 fatty acid deficiency include fatigue, dry and/or itchy skin, brittle hair and nails, constipation, frequent colds, depression, poor concentration, lack of physical endurance, and/or joint pain. Blood tests by your doctor are the only true way to determine potential deficiency.
