Omega-3s Reduce Cardiovascular Disease & Cancer Risk by More Than 50% & Help Alzheimer's Disease
Pamela Seefeld, R. Ph., Pharmacognosy Consultant, a guest on the Debra Ray Show, talked about Omega-3 fish oils at breakneck speed. She offered some tips on taking fish oils:
- Molecular distilled/pharmacy grade is better because the processing is more advanced. She did recommend Carlson's, even though it is not molecularly distilled. Nordic Naturals, which is molecularly distilled, was also recommended.
- Turn the label around - the EPA & DHA amounts added together should be at least 850 to 1,000 mg per day. Most people should be taking 2,000 to 3,000 mg a day, especially if they are treating something. She recommended at least 3,000 mg a day for Alzheimer's Disease.
- Concentrated is better because you don't have to take as many capsules.
- Have a handful of walnuts or a piece of cheese with the fish oil to help digestion. If it has been properly processed, there won't be any fish smell or taste.
