Omega-3 Oils For People Who Think They’re A Bit Fishy

What is the truth about Omega-3s? Is it worth buying expensive supplements, or even foods advertising that they are high in Omega-3? Or Omega-6? Or Omega-9 or even Omega-7? What even are Omega-3s? (Because, yes, there's more than one.) What do they even do for us? Are they good for our hearts, our brains, our eyes, our skin... (Spoiler - yes, it's a good bet they are.) But we're still just guessing with many of the answers about Omega-3s. It's one of the areas of research that is the most confusing, even without all the noise generated by health influencers, businesses - whether that's health food stores, supermarkets, fishing companies... and those people who seem to have such a vested interest in telling us what to eat! As well as nonsense AI answers based on all the noise! What is the truth!? And can we handle it? Despite all the confusion, if we keep it really simple, we realise we already have the answers. With a high degree of probability, we can: - Avoid a severe deficiency of any of the three major Omega-3s. - Find easy and affordable sources of Omega-3s. - Identify risks to beware of in consuming Omega-3s. - Take care of our health and avoid expensive mistakes! - Navigate environmental and contamination issues which can affect marine Omega-3s. >If you're not sure how essential Omega-3s really are, consider that DHA (one type of Omega-3) legally has to be included in baby formula milk in Europe and the UK, because without it, our brains cannot develop. So it's no wonder Omega-3 research is bringing hope to sufferers of many conditions, including depression, Parkinson's, migraine, ALS, dementia, MS, Alzheimer's... In this easy to read, gently humorous and compassionate book, Pearl Howie dives into one of the most mysterious of wellbeing mysteries, giving clear common sense answers and explaining why on earth Omega-3 research is such a confusing muddle in the first place.
