Omega-3

November 5, 2008

I get asked a lot about omega fats and why they are so good for you. Here’s a brief explanation: Your body turns Omega-3 fats from food into compounds that reduce inflammation?one of the culprits behind heart disease, which kills more women than any other illness.

These good fats also reduce blood pressure, prevent artery-plaque buildup, lower the level of bad blood fats, guard against clotting, reduce heart rate and prevent heart arrhythmia.

I have a family history of heart disease, so I make sure I eat a lot of salmon and tuna, as well as pop an Omega softgell every morning with my Isagenix Shake.
