<p>Fish oil supplements, if you purchase high quality ones,  have so many health benefits because of the Omega 3 essential fatty acids they contain.</p>
<p>But, as I already said, they have to be the right ones.</p>
<p>The quality of the oil capsules depends on the following:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>using fish that is known to have high quality fatty acids</strong></li>
<li><strong>the fish ideally should originate from the pristine waters south of New Zealand, where the risk of contamination is very low</strong></li>
<li><strong>The fish oil should be extracted using molecular distillation</strong></li>
<li><strong>the capsules need to contain a high percentage of DHA/EPA</strong></li>
<li><strong>the oil needs to be processed very fast to prevent oxidation and must not taste rancid but pure.<br />
</strong></li>
<li><strong>no matter where the fish came from it needs to go through a purifying process</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Once you get the right <a href="http://www.xtend-life.com/product/Omega_3_DHA_Fish_Oil.aspx?id=1000150" target="_blank">fish oil supplements</a> it will be beneficial for :</p>
<ul>
<li>brain development and maintenance</li>
<li>eyesight</li>
<li>cardiovascular system</li>
<li>digestive system</li>
<li>arthritis</li>
<li>all disorders that have inflammation associated with them</li>
<li>IBD, IBS</li>
<li>immune system</li>
<li>cholesterol level</li>
<li>diabetes</li>
<li>acne, psoriasis and eczema</li>
</ul>
<p>It&#8217;s one of very few substances that has excited both the medical society and the alternative medical people.</p>
<p>Many tests are conducted and many of them prove promising, to say the least. Doctors hope to find prevention for, or the slowing down of <strong>Altzheimer disease</strong>.  Could pregnant mothers prevent their children from developing  <strong>ADD</strong> or  <strong>ADHD</strong> by taking fish oil supplements?</p>
<p>Studies and tests have been conducted and <strong>children with ADD and ADHD experienced considerable improvement </strong>after taking fish oil.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-320" title="20903983.thb" src="http://health-is-natural.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/20903983.thb.jpg" alt="20903983.thb" width="220" height="251" /></p>
<p>It is a known fact that most people in the <strong>Western countries have a serious deficiency of  Omega 3 fatty acids. </strong> It&#8217;s possible to get AlA -alpha-linolenic -acid from our regular diet. ALA is one of the essential acids our body cannot manufacture and thus we have to get it from our diet. But the most important two will have to come from eating fatty fish or fish oil supplements</p>
<p>Before we started eating fast foods and processed food the ratio between Omega 3 and Omega 6 wavered between 1:1 and 1:3. Ideally it should be 1:1 but 1:3 is still acceptable. The ratio now is 1:20</p>
<p>All the processed foods and fast foods contain much Omega 6 and we practically do not get the Omega 3 we need.</p>
<p>This Omega 3 deficiency is believed to be the cause of  obesity, depression, dyslexia, hyper activity and even violence.</p>
<p>Quality fish oil supplements is the best solution for this problem. Unless you want to eat fatty fish three times a week. And that would have its drawback too because so much deep sea fish is contaminated. A good fish oil will not have contaminants in it</p>
<p>Would you not agree with me when I claim that it&#8217;s worth a mere $ 20.- per month&#8230;..actually it&#8217;s less than that&#8230;..to stay healthy or get your health and energy back?</p>
<p>Prevent<a href="http://www.xtend-life.com/product/Omega_3_DHA_Fish_Oil.aspx?id=1000150" target="_self"> Omega 3 deficiency.</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Green mussels for arthritis have such powerful anti inflammatory properties they are becoming well known world wide. Their official name is green lipped mussels.</p>
<p>Are you suffering from arthritis and trying to <strong>relieve the pain and discomfort associated with this condition? </strong><a href="http://health-is-natural.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/istock_000005573247xsmall.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-90" title="istock_000005573247xsmall" src="http://health-is-natural.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/istock_000005573247xsmall.jpg" alt="" width="428" height="280" /></a> Many, many people have found tremendous relief by taking capsules containing oil that has been derived from these mussels.</p>
<p>Really, I do not want to  go into a dissertation about fatty acids and what they contain.</p>
<p>You want to be pain free, right? And you would like to do that without using prescription drugs? You owe it to yourself to get the best product you can get your hands on.  I strongly suggest you use the oil derived from the <a href="http://www.greenmusselremedie.info" target="_blank">green mussels for arthritis</a></p>
<p>You should also know about the other health benefits you will get from this oil product</p>
<ul>
<li>better <strong>brain development</strong></li>
<li>healthier <strong>cardiovascular system</strong></li>
<li>remarkable relief for people with <strong>IBD</strong></li>
<li>easier breathing for people with <strong>asthma</strong></li>
<li>helps remedy the <strong>Omega 3 deficiency</strong> we all suffer from</li>
</ul>
<p>Let us look a bit closer at these points:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Brain</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>DHA, </strong>one of the essential fatty acids of this mussel, is crucial for proper brain development. It aids our learning capabilities.  Doctors and researchers are trying to determine if this <strong>DHA</strong> can help prevent <strong>Altzheimer&#8217;s Disease, ADD, ADHD </strong>and maybe prevent <strong>Down&#8217;s Syndrome</strong>.</p>
<p>DHA is also needed by our <strong>Retina</strong> to help us see better.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Cardio vascular health and Cholesterol Control<br />
</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>DHA</strong> and <strong>EPA</strong> &#8230;another<a href="http://www.greenmusselremedie.info" target="_blank"> fatty acid </a>&#8230;working together can lower the risk for having a heart attack considerably. They also help break up <strong>thrombosis</strong>. This is the abnormal formation of a blood clot which can cause a stroke. They also can prevent the buildup of a too high cholesterol level.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>IBD</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Irritable Bowel Disease</strong> involves inflammation and the anti inflammatory qualities of the green mussel is of great benefit and may ease the symptoms.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Asthma</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Asthma is associated with inflammation of the respiratory tract. Many people have remarked on the fact that breathing became much easier when taking <a href="http://www.greenmusselremedie.info" target="_blank">green-lipped mussel oil</a></p>
<p>Are you aware of the fact that our <strong>intake of DHA/EPA is approximately 130mg? </strong>If you are having any heart problems or are at risk for getting them this 130mg is about <strong>15% of what you need</strong>.</p>
<p>If you happen to be one of the few healthy people, still left, <strong>you still only get about 20% </strong>of what you need.</p>
<p>Even if you do not have arthritis it is my opinion that everybody could greatly benefit from this product. don&#8217;t waste time sitting on the fence being unable to make up your mind.</p>
<p>Do you want to feel energetic, fight off inflammations and, who knows&#8230;maybe become a genius?&lt;g&gt;</p>
<p>Take quick action and get yourself <a href="http://www.greenmusselremedie.info" target="_blank">green lipped mussel oil</a></p>

<p><strong>What is Omega 3?</strong></p>
<p>Omega 3 is a special group of fatty acids. Our body needs them but has no way to manufacture them itself.<br />
The only way we can obtain these acids is through our diet. This is why <strong> they are called essential fatty acids.</strong>or EFAs</p>
<p>We can get some Omega 3 by eating flax seed, flax seed oil, canola oil, walnuts etc. The problem is that these foods only provide one of the EFAs. They only give us ALA -alpha-linolenic -acid.<br />
Our body can convert some of this into a very small amount of the other EFAs need. The only way we can get enough of  those essential fatty acids  is by <strong> eating oily fish such as salmon, mackerel, sardines, halibut, cod, etc.</strong></p>
<p>Many people don&#8217;t like eating fish. Some people just don&#8217;t like it, some are allergic to fish and others are concerned about the mercury and other impurities in the fish.</p>
<p>But we would have to eat fish three, maybe four, times a week in order to get all our EFAs  into our body</p>
<p>Fish contains two very important fatty acids, namely DHA-dacosahexaenoic acid and EPA-eicosapentaenoic acid. DHA is crucial <strong> for development of the brain</strong>. Is is also needed by the retina.</p>
<p>There are ongoing studies trying to determine how much help it can be in making life easier for children with ADD and ADHD. Can it slow down or stall Alzheimer Disease and Macular Degeneration?</p>
<p>DHA/EPA together can prevent heart trouble and strokes. They are strong antioxidants and are also extremely anti inflammatory. They can prevent thrombosis which is the abnormal formation of blood clots that can cause stroke or heart attack.</p>
<p><strong> How can we make sure we do get enough Omega 3? </strong></p>
<p>If we do not like fish, or for some reason can&#8217;t eat it there are products on the market we can use. Many people get Fish Oil. It usually comes in capsules and people take 2-4 a day. They start out with 2 in the morning and 2 in the evening.  Once they feel the positive effects of the Omega 3 they&#8217;re consuming they can often get down to taking only 2 capsules a day.</p>
<p>If you do decide to take fish oil make sure it has 60% DHA/EPA in  it. Actually there is  an oil which is derived from <a href="http://health-is-natural.com/go/omegadaily"> a mussel which lives in the waters South of New Zealand.</a> It has a very high quality of Omega 3.</p>
