Health Benefits of Omega-3 Fish Oil
Omega-3 Fish Oil Brings Balance
We do not believe that fish oil is the "miracle" cure for all variaties of ailments, malidies and health conditions. Rather, as a source of essential fatty acids (EFAs), we believe that fish oil supplementation can bring nutritional balance to a large majority of the population suffering from Omega-3 and Omega-6 imbalances.
Since Westerns consume far more omega-6-rich foods (including cereals, whole-grain bread, baked goods, fried foods, margarine, and others), the ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 fatty acids is out of balance in most people. This means for most Americans the emphasis should to be on increasing omega-3s (EPAs and DHAs) to make the ratio more even and bring levels of EFAs back into balance. High quality fish oil supplementation provides a means for individuals to attain and maintain proper balance.
