The oil found in the flesh of the fish has been proven to be of such great benefit in so many different conditions it could almost be called a wonder worker. There is a very sound scientific basis for all of these many benefits. Fish oil contains two special substances which are Omega-3 fatty acids, they are EPA(eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). The body uses EPA and DHA to form a special group of chemicals called prostoglandins. Prostaglandins are of two types, one type creates problems and the other type corrects them. The type which is derived from fish oils is the beneficial type. This good prostaglandin reduces inflammation on the inside of the arteries, reduces the tendency of platelets and red blood cells to stick and clump and clot, therefore reducing the formation of plaque, strokes and heart attacks. It was the ability of fish oil to reduce heart attacks among people who eat a lot of fish which first caught the attention of medical world. Studies have shown that for many people, supplements of EPA and DHA from fish oil lowered their blood pressure, their triglycerides, their total cholesterol and the dangerous VLDL form of cholesterol. Not only does this greatly reduce the rish of heart disease, it also seems to reduce the amount of fat being deposited on the body. Yes, one study has shown fish oil supplements definitely help your body burn off unwanted fat. There's more! Another study has shown that marine lipids reduced, and in some cases eliminated migraine headaches. Several studies have found these oils reduce the pain and inflammation of rheumatoid arthritis. Other studies have shown them to clear up or substantially improve such wide-randing conditions as multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, lupus and asthma.
