Keep It Pumping!

I just read in the Prevention Magazine (March 2009), that The Biggest Loser nutritionist, Ms Forebert, RD, sets the guidelines for nutrition for the contestants.

One of her guidelines is: Have your daily dose of Omega-3 :  She calls them the anti aging fats.  I like that!

According to Dr. Mehmet Oz

Some of the supplements that are supposed to help anxiety and depression are omega-3 fatty acids. According to Dr Oz, they are so safe that they should be no-brainer, and they help make you brainier – 600 milligrams a day for adults makes a big difference. New mothers can reduce postpartum depression if they add 600 milligrams of plant based DHA omega-3 (or 2 grams of fish oil) to daily diet.

But, remember, this is not for diagnosis, nor treatment.  Please see your health professional….

==>>And, The AHA Recommendation Omega-3
fatty acids benefit the heart of healthy people, and those at high
risk of — or who have — cardiovascular disease.

What is…?

Omega 3′s

According to Dr Oz
To keep your brain, heart and eyes healthy, take Omega 3′s every day. For women, the daily dose of Omega 3s is 1000 mg; for men, the dosage is 600 mg.

Someone just emailed me and brought this tax matter to my attention, I am not a tax expert so take this as something you can look into, and not as advice.

OK, here’s the thing: Did you know that omega 3 fish oil might be tax deductible?

The IRS recognizes that fish oil can be a very powerful addition to a “chronic treatment plan”,
So during certain circumstances it can  be tax deductible.

Apparently this works two ways:
1  If your medical expenses exceed 7.5% of your total income,

2 If you have (or if you are eligible to set up) one of four specific health and medical savings accounts, you can withdraw the money to pay for your fish oil.

However, you *must* have this fish oil “recommended by a medical practitioner as treatment for
a specific medical condition diagnosed by a physician.”

Again, this is not tax advice, so ask an expert about this.

Also, according to Dr Atkins:

Essential fatty acids (EFA’s) are families of compounds of dietary fats that your own body cannot produce. These are the Omega 3 and Omega

Omega 6 is found in seeds, grains and even chicken and pigs, from they grains they eat. The American Heart Association recommends 5-10 percent of your daily calories to be omega 6, to reduce cardiovascular disease.

Both Omega 3 and 6 are needed for cells, and they should be in a certain balance. This should be Omega-6 is 2 or 3 t…o 1 of Omega 3.

Again, the problem is that Omega 6 is consumed way more than it should be, thereby, unbalancing your system. Understand the power of omega 3!

Sealogix is a pharmaceutical grade of pure grade Omega 3, and it is affordable!

Why Quality and Purity Matter – Because PCB Could Cause Cancer

At Trilogy, we set a higher standard for all of our Sealogix products. We source our Omega-3′s from fish located in some of the cleanest waters in the world from fisheries that are renewable and fully-sustainable. The fish oil is then molecularly distilled to concentrate and purify the oil.

So, what is the #1 Question that should always be asked?

“Which fish oil should I buy?”

It’s a great question because there really are many inferior products out there, and it’s hard to find a great fish oil.

In March In the news:

*EIGHT* popular fish oil brands were found to contain excessive PCBs!

What’s a PCB? It stands for Polychlorinated Biphenyl, and it was BANNED in 1978 by the U.S. Congress because it causes cancer.

But… what should you take?

Sealogix Omega 3

Manufacturers of fish oil are required to test each batch they produce; however, in many cases, this testing is handled by the manufacturers themselves. Often testing is conducted prior to adding flavors and bottling, so the fish oil that is tested in-house may not necessarily be the same quality of fish oil delivered to the marketplace.

In addition to the standard manufacturer testing for every batch, we have enlisted the help of IFOS (International Fish Oil Standards), a non-affiliated third party and the internationally-respected source for fish oil analysis. IFOS scientifically tests and analyzes Sealogix. This validation testing ensures that you are getting a safe and effective fish oil supplement that you can feel confident giving to your family.

Sealogix actually publishes the reports from IFO!  So you can see the results for yourself.

Dear Reader,

Remember my last post about Omega 3 and Omega 6

A short recap:
The ideal ratio of Omega-3 to Omega-6 is 1:2
Now, guess what the typical American diet ratio is today? About 1:20!
Americans are getting 10 times more Omega-6s than is required.  This simply means way to much, and increases inflammation

So, let’s talk about our North American Diet that causes us to ingest so much Omega 6.

http://www.experts-at.com/SealogixOmega3.html

In a nutshell….It is Vegetable Oils

Canola oil, safflower oil, soybean oil, corn oil, peanut oil,  sunflower oil, and maybe there are even other oils. All these oils contribute to that deadly silent inflammation.  You need to control those oils.
Sad but true…

Think about it: how far from the real vegetable is it’s respective oil?  I mean take safflower oil.  Have you seen safflower?  Does it look like oil?  How much oil do you think is in corn?  As much as there is in a tablespoon of oil?  NO, so how hard is it to get the same amounts of vegetable oil just by eathing the respective vegetables? No the vegetables that the oil comes from are NOT naturally saturated with oil.

Corn is not drenched in oil….olives are naturally oily though.

So, now what?  Olive oil and macadamia nut oil are both great-tasting oils that you can cook with without increasing inflammation in your body.

You do need to be taking fish oil supplements! First, because of the mercury, you should eat fish within reason and supplement Omega 3 WITH supplements.

Remember, the more Omega 6 you eat, the more Omega 3 you need.  But, mostly, eat sensibly and be informed about what you want to put in your mouth. I still think our parents knew what they were talking about when they said “In Moderation”.  And, remember that fish oil we had to take when we were kids?

PS remember, fish oil is NOT meant to cook with!

Skin as smooth as a rose pedal

According To: Dr. Ellen Marmur: These essential fatty acids support skin health, improve nerve and vascular function, and act as antioxidants. Omega-3 is researched and known for strong anti-inflammatory properties and so, says the Dr. may calm skin conditions such as rosacea or eczema and minimize redness. Omega 3 boosts the immune function of your body.

Therefore, Omega 3 essential fatty acids do support skin health.
