Fish Oil

It never ceases to amaze me how effective fish oil (or more importantly the Omega 3's that it provides) continues to be for numerous reasons.

Every human being should be consuming at least 6g of fish oil a day and in a perfect world we would get this from fish in our natural environment. However this is not a perfect world and because of the increased contamination in seas, rivers and lakes as well as commercial seafood farming where animals are fed the wrong food and pumped full of anti-biotics it renders the benefits they should be supplying useless.

Some of the benefits that fish oils provide are:

• Increase fat loss
• Decrease fat storage
• Improve cognition and brain function
• Improve immune system
• Improve mood and decrease depression
• Reduce inflammation

There are many more benefits which can be found in numerous articles all over the Internet but if there are so many positives so fish oil then how can we get it safely without risking any of the possible side effects that consuming large quantity's of poor quality fish pose?



Using a highly potent, well tested fish oil supplement is the most effective way to reap the benefits. There is still a catch though. Should you use any fish oil? What's the difference between the £3 pot that Asda sell and that £25 tub on the Internet?

It's all to do with how the oil was tested and by who. It's been shown recently that most fish oil have already rancified by the time they reach the shop so by the time a consumer has bought one and then taken home and started using you can see how very quickly it can become ineffective and even dangerous.

A quality fish oil should be tested for the following:

• PCBs
• Solvents
• Heavy metals

I recommend that Poliquin brand of fish oils because as the article demonstrates they use rigorous testing to make sure there fish oil is of the highest quality and one the most potent on the market.

With all the evidence provided above and the advice that through natural causes we cannot meet our body's requirements can you afford to continue to not take fish oils?
