Health Benefits of Fish Oil

OMEGA 3

One of the reasons why people take fish oil supplements is due to the various health benefits that they offer. Fish oil has long been known to contain essential fatty acids that are known to be very beneficial in maintaining one’s good health. Here are some of those benefits.

 

Heart Disease
One of the more common benefits that fish oil is known to offer people involves heart health. Various studies through the years have shown that the long chain omega 3 fatty acids contained in fish oil may help reduce the risk of heart diseases in humans. These essential fatty acids may also help lower LDL cholesterol in the bloodstream ad therefore help reduce the risk of heart attacks and stroke. Not only that, omega 3 fatty acids found in fish oil are also known to increase the levels of HDL, or good, cholesterol.

Prevent Inflammation
One of the more beneficial properties of omega 3 fatty acids found in fish oil is their anti-inflammatory effects on the body. Fish oil can be used to prevent or reduce the inflammation of the tissues. Regular consumption of fish oil has been known to help those people who are suffering from chronic inflammatory diseases. Fish oil has also been known to be effective in treating certain gastrointestinal disorders as well as ulcerative colitis and inflammatory bowel disease.

Arthritis Treatment
Due to its good anti-inflammatory properties, fish oil is a good supplement that can help ease the pain brought about by arthritis and rheumatism. Fish oil supplements can help reduce the use of NSAID’s or Non Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory drugs for treating such conditions. In osteoarthritis, fish oils prove helpful in trying to reduce the functions of certain enzymes that may destroy or damage cartilage tissues in the body.

Weight Loss
Fish oil may also prove beneficial for those people who are trying to lose weight. It sees that taking fish oil supplements may help a lot during the weight loss process. Fish oil has been known to improve the efficiency of exercise in trying to lose weight. Studies have shown that people who were given fish oil as part of their diet seem to lose weight more when exercising than those people under the same program but were not given fish oil in their diet.

Eye Disorders
Another benefit that many experts have extolled on fish oil involves the treatment of certain eye disorders. Consuming fish oil on a regular basis seems to help people avoid the effects of age related macular degeneration. More studies are being undertaken in order to prove further just how effective fish oil can be in trying to help people maintain good eye health.

Skin Health
Another known benefit associated with fish oil consumption is skin health. Fish oil is known to contain nutrients that can help change dry and poorly maintained skin look shiny and glowing. Fish oil has also been known to be effective in treating other skin conditions such as eczema, skin lesions and rashes.

Fish oil can be applied topically on the skin to help relieve the effects of psoriasis. Regular fish oil intake can also help retain moisture in the skin.
