Fish oil benefits? You bet! Fish oil health benefits are

important and wide-ranging. Proven by numerous clinical

studies, fish oil benefits range from brain health to heart

health to pregnancy health.

Fish oil health benefits come primarily from the two Omega 3

essential fatty acids in fish oil -- DHA (docosahexaenoic acid)

and to a lesser extent EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid). While plant

sources such as flax seed will provide the body with Omega 3

oil, the body must convert it into DHA and EFA, and that

conversion can be difficult for some people or for elderly

people. However, fish oil provides the body with DHA and EPA in

a natural form that can easily be assimilated.

Here are seven major fish oil benefits:

1. Lowers blood triglycerides - high levels of triglycerides

are known to be a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.

2. Helps reduce likelihood of blood clots - fish oil benefits

include the prevention of blood platelets from sticking

together and forming blood clots.

3. Lowers mild high blood pressure - fish oil helps lower blood

pressure when it is due to high cholesterol and hardening of the

arteries.

4. Reduces inflammation from rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis

and gout - fish oil health benefits come from the DHA and EPA

that reduce the amount of inflammation-causing substances.

5. Lowers risk of developing Altzheimer's Disease - studies

have found that fish oil seems to help protect the nervous

system.

6. Reduces depression rates - the lack of DHA has been linked

to higher incidence rates of depression.

7. Improves immune system function - fish oil benefits and

studies have linked lowered risk of breast cancer and prostate

cancer to the consumption of fish oil.

And there are more fish oil benefits! From lowered risk of age

related macular degeneration to reducing the risk of

osteoporosis to benefits for Type II diabetics, fish oil health

benefits are truly spectacular.

However, there are some precautions that you should be aware of

when considering your sources for fish oils. Some fish oils can

contain:

* Contaminants such as PCB's and heavy metals like mercury

* Additional additives to keep the fish oil from becoming

rancid during the transporting and encapulating process

* Low DHA levels

Inferior fish oil products do exist, while at the same time

fish oils are available that are harvested from pristine ocean

waters. Be sure the fish oils you consume to enjoy fish oil

health benefits contain high levels of DHA and EPA and are free

from the heavy metals. Read as much as you can about even more

fish oil benefits that provide an amazing array of health

benefits.
