Health benefits of fish oil
Heart Health
According to the American Heart Association (AHA), clinical trials have proved that omega 3 is effective in reducing the incidence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Not only omega-3 lowers the levels of bad cholesterol (LDL), it helps to increase the level of good cholesterol (HDL) too. In addition, it may also reduce the levels of excess triglycerides.
Joint Health
Fish oil rich in omega-3 is found to exert anti-inflammatory properties. Regular consumption of fish oil supplements is helpful to those suffering from chronic inflammatory conditions such as arthritis. It helps to reduce pain associated with arthritis thereby reducing the dosage of painkillers such as NSAIDs (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) which are associated with increased risks of gastric ulcer. In the case of Osteoarthritis, omega-3 is helpful in slowing down cartilage degeneration by reducing the activities of an enzyme.
Brain Health

In addition, the Alzheimer’s Association of USA recommends fish containing higher content of omega-3 fatty acids to patients as it acts as a protective diet during Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. Due to its neural protective properties, it is believed that omega-3 is helpful in relieving depression, anxiety, restlessness, mental fatigue, stress, decreased sexual desire, suicidal tendencies and other nervous disorders. In children, omega-3 is found to be useful in alleviating Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and other conditions such as dyslexia, inability to complete tasks, emotional instability and etc
