omega

For the past couple of weeks, I have started to take Omega 3 fish oil supplements.  I had read about how it can help with focusing and concentration among many health benefits.  I can attest that I have definitely noticed improvements with my focus.  I wear many hats running my business and it can get challenging to focus on one thing at a time.  I have found that with the fish oil supplements, my mind feels “clearer”.

There is quite a list of health benefits that Omega 3 fish oil can provide you with.  I have tried to pinpoint the most prevalent ones:

- May help reduce risk of coronary heart disease
- Helps circulatory problems, varicose veins
- Stimulates blood circulation & reduce blood pressure
- Reduce risk of secondary and primary heart attacks
- Some benefits with arthritis
- Helpful in cases of depression & anxiety
- Possible anti-cancer effects (breast, colon, prostate)
- Improves thickness of carotid arteries
- Improved immune system in infants
- Significant help in children with learning & behavioral issues
- Pain relief & anti-inflammatory
- Aids in the maintenance of joint health
- Improved memory, recall, focus, and reasoning
- Helps with ADD & ADHD as well as OCD

It is usually recommended to take the supplements as you are eating, so 1-3 times per day with your main meals would be a good rhythm.  Of course, you should always check with your doctor before embarking on this.  I find that it is a very good idea, especially for people that do not eat a lot of fish in their diet.  Such people can lack in Omega 3 which can have consequences on their health eventually.

I would highly recommend it to anyone that leads a busy lifestyle, and that uses their mind significantly such as students and people that work on a computer.  Plus, along with the added concentration benefits, it provides you with a variety of added health benefits as listed above.  This supplement can definitely be an extra “ace in the hole” as you are geared towards succeeding with your goals ;)
