A healthy lifestyle and proper nutrition are increasingly crucial in our everyday lives.
Many information and products are already available, and choosing the best for us is often challenging.
Indeed, how wonderful it would be if we could eat in such a way that we would bring all the necessary nutrients into our bodies.
How much fish do you eat daily?
And it also matters what kind you choose.
We had a joint DXN dinner in June at a Japanese restaurant and ordered a Sashimi set before the sushi boat. The set included “salmon, tuna, flounder, red grouper, tiger crab, diamond crab, octopus, squid, butterfish, cockles.”
On the one hand, not everyone likes them, especially raw. On the other hand, it is not easy to get daily.
It would be great if it were a regular part of our meals because fish oil is one of the richest sources of Omega-3 fatty acids.
Sea fish contain large amounts of it, particularly salmon, tuna, herring, and sardines.
What is Omega-3?
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fats our body cannot produce alone. They are crucial for our health, so we must obtain them through our diet. A deficiency in Omega-3 fatty acids can lead to various health issues.
Among the different types of Omega-3 fatty acids, the most important ones are alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Each of these has distinct sources and health benefits.
Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA)
Benefits:
- Plays a role in maintaining cardiovascular health.
- Can help reduce inflammation.
- The body can partially convert ALA into DHA and EPA, although the conversion efficiency is low.
Sources:
- Plant oils such as flaxseed, canola, and soybean.
- Nuts, particularly walnuts.
- Chia seeds and flaxseeds.
- Green leafy vegetables like spinach and kale.
Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA)
Benefits:
- Essential for brain and eye health.
- Supports cognitive functions and memory.
- Particularly important during pregnancy and breastfeeding for the fetus’s and newborn’s brain development.
Sources:
- Fatty fish such as salmon, tuna, herring, and sardines.
- Fish oil supplements.
- Algae (plant-based source).
Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA)
Benefits:
- Helps reduce inflammation and supports the immune system.
- Can support cardiovascular health.
- May assist in managing depression and other mental health issues.
Sources:
- Fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel, tuna, and sardines.
- Fish oil supplements.
- Algae (plant-based source).
What is fish oil?
Fish oil is oil extracted from the tissues of oily fish.
It typically comes from fish like herring, tuna, anchovies, mackerel, or salmon. Sometimes, it is also derived from the livers of other fish, such as cod liver oil.
The types of omega-3 found in fish oil (EPA and DHA) offer more significant health benefits than omega-3 from plant sources.
How can we get the right amount of Omega-3?
Fish oil is most efficiently absorbed in the body by the oil extracted from fish.
For example, it can be taken as an oil with a spoon or in soft gel capsules that can be easily swallowed with water. Although these capsules are usually quite large, their smooth surface makes them easy to swallow.
Why should you consume Omega-3 fatty acids?
Consuming Omega-3 fatty acids supports your health and can enhance your athletic performance.
Cardiovascular health
- Omega-3 fatty acids contribute to the health of the cardiovascular system, reducing the risk of heart disease.
- They can help lower blood pressure, reduce triglyceride levels, and improve the elasticity of blood vessels.
Anti-inflammatory effects
- One of the key benefits of omega-3 fatty acids is their potent anti-inflammatory properties, which can provide relief from the symptoms of chronic diseases like arthritis or asthma.
Brain and mental health
- Omega-3 fatty acids, particularly DHA, play a crucial role in brain health.
- They can improve memory and concentration and reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety.
Eye health
- DHA is also vital for eye health.
- It is essential for adequately functioning the retina and can help prevent age-related macular degeneration.
What to consider when choosing Omega-3 supplements?
Purity and Quality:
Choose a pure and free supplement from contaminants such as heavy metals and dioxins.
EPA and DHA Content:
Check that the product contains adequate amounts of EPA and DHA, the most important Omega-3 fatty acids.
Format:
Omega-3 fatty acids are available in various forms, such as fish oil capsules, krill oil, or algae extract. You can choose the format that is most convenient for you.
Freshness:
Please ensure the supplement is fresh, as rancid Omega-3 fatty acids can harm your health.
Additives:
Avoid products that contain unnecessary additives or artificial ingredients.
Some supplements include extra vitamins, such as vitamins A and D, because these are fat-soluble and can be beneficial when taken together. However, they can be overdosed, so it’s essential to consume the daily amount carefully.
