Frequently Asked Questions
I have read that Omega-3s in oily fish, fish oils and Cod Liver Oil are good for the heart, the brain, the joints and lots of other things besides. Isn’t this too good to be true?
It does seem quite miraculous that one type of nutrient should be able to do all these things, but when you realise that the Omega-3 fatty acids are an important part of the membrane of every single cell in the human body, it begins to make sense. Without enough Omega-3, the function of every cell is impaired to a lesser or greater degree. Until the 20th century, most people got enough Omega-3 through their everyday diet, but as farming and food production methods changed and our eating habits altered, our diet became unhealthily low in Omega-3. |
