The benefits of essential fatty acids, including omega-3 fatty acids (EPA
/ DHA), for your heart have long been known to scientists. If you are concerned
about cholesterol, cardiovascular disease, and high blood pressure, you should
include omega-3 fatty acids as a part of your heart-healthy diet.
EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid)
EPA is a potent form of omega-3 fatty acids, which has a multitude
of health benefits (see below).
DHA (docosahexanoic acid)
DHA is also a potent form of the essential omega-3 fatty acids.
Vitamin E
Identified over 80 years ago, vitamin E remains one of the most
famous natural antioxidants with a broad spectrum of health benefits.
The healing powers of vitamin E include protecting the body's
heart and cardiovascular system by preventing the oxidation of
LDL (or "bad") cholesterol, protecting the body against
prostate and other cancers, protecting against memory loss and
other age-related problems.
Why Omega-3 Fatty Acids?
The tale of omega-3 fatty acids started with the
Eskimos, who have very little heart disease despite eating a high-fat
diet. Scientists discovered that high levels of omega-3 fatty acids
in cold water fish, a main staple of these Eskimos, are the key
to protecting the heart.
Omega-3 fatty acids (especially the potent forms of
EPA and DHA), have the following benefits:
Protect the heart against cardiovascular disease
Omega-3 fatty acids reduce the clumping of platelets in the blood,
thus reducing the risk of clots that cause heart attacks. These
essential fatty acids can also reduce high blood pressure and
maintain the flexibility of the walls of the arterial vessels.
Help control cholesterol level
Scientists discovered that omega-3 fatty acids can help lower
the LDL ("bad") cholesterol and triglycerides levels,
and possibly even elevate the HDL ("good") cholesterol
level.
Help prevent cancers
Even a small amount of omega-3 fatty acid in your diet can help
prevent certain forms of cancers, such as colon, prostate, and
breast cancers.
Reduce the pain of arthritis
In a study, arthritis patients who took omega-3 fatty acid supplements
daily noticed less joint stiffness and tender or swollen joints
after just 12 weeks.
