Improve the function of your blood vessels

We need healthy and well functioning blood vessels to supply the different tissues in the body with nutrients and oxygen. If one of the more important blood vessels in the body get obstructed, it could have severe consequences resulting in a heart attack or stroke.

The reviewed research is interesting since it investigated the effect of omega 3 fatty acids on endothelial function (Wang Q, et al. 2012). Endothelium is the thin lining on the inside of the blood vessels.

It was found that omega 3 fatty acids significantly improved endothelial function as measured by flow-mediated dilatation.

An easy way to increase your omega 3 fatty acid intake even if you don’t like to eat fish is to supplement your diet with a high quality omega 3 fish oil. Taking only 2 capsules of the “Better Fish Oil” will give you substantially higher levels of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) than what you get in other products. EPA and DHA are the active ingredients in omega 3 fat. Omega 3 fatty acids also provide many other health benefits you can read about by clicking here.
