What Happens if You Consumed Omega-3 Fish Oils for 30 Days

from Dr. Berg’s Healthy Keto and Intermittent Fasting Podcast · host Dr. Eric Berg

Let’s talk about the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids and what would happen if you started consuming them more often.  Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for the body, but our bodies can’t produce them.  You can get omega-3 fatty acids by consuming a high-quality cod liver oil or fish oil supplement. I prefer cod liver oil because it has additional vitamin A and vitamin D.  However, it’s best to get your omega-3 fatty acids from food. Foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids include:  • Fatty fish  • Sardines  • Grass-fed beef • Organ meats  • Eggs  EPA and DHA are important omega-3s. EPA mainly helps reduce inflammation. DHA primarily helps support the brain. Omega-3 fatty acids may even help people with asthma and allergies.  Consuming more omega-3 fatty acids may potentially help with certain symptoms, including: • Dry eyes  • Dermatitis  • Macular degeneration  • Arthritis  • Arrhythmias  • High blood pressure  • Leg cramps  • Insomnia   • Menstrual cramps  More potential benefits of consuming omega-3 fatty acids:  • Improvements in fatty liver disease  • Increased calcium absorption   • Decreased risk of certain types of cancer  One small issue some people experience after taking fish oil is burping. You can take fish oil in capsule form, which shouldn’t cause burping. If you’re vegan or are allergic to fish, a good alternative is consuming algae.  It’s important to note that omega-6 fatty acids compete with omega-3 fatty acids. One of the biggest causes of a deficiency of omega-3 fatty acids is excess consumption of omega-6 fatty acids.  If you have trouble absorbing fats easily, you may want to try taking purified bile salts to increase the absorption of omega-3 fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins.  DATA: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3206354/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3076650/ Test Link Here: https://omegaquant.com/what-is-the-omega-3-index/
