omega-3

Avatar m tn After being diagnosed with the beginnings of heart disease I have been doing a lot of reading and it appears that Omega 3 may benefit my condition. Does anyone know if this is true and if so can you get Omega 3 anyway other than eating fish?
Avatar m tn An interesting question would be, does the source of omega 3 matter, assuming this study is true (and the article cited by Gymdandee suggests it isn't a good study for this). Some have argued that too much flax might be a bad idea.
Avatar n tn While all children with ADHD are not deficient in omega-3 fatty acids, we believe that the addition of omega-3 fatty acids to the diet may be important for some ADHD children. In fact, studies show that children whose treatment program includes only medication, educational and psychological therapy continue to be at high risk for vandalism, petty crime, frequency of alcoholic intoxication, and possession of marijuana.
Avatar m tn Oh! I forgot, you would not burp the fish oil if you take the pill each time you eat something or after every meal, I have never had a problem with it.
Avatar f tn What brand of Omega 3's are you using? I have been taking just the Kroger brand Omega 3's with fish oil concentrate. Should I maybe look at the health food store for some that are especially for pregnancy? Thanks!
907968 tn?1292622204 Coconut milk generally raises both HDL and LDL cholesterol (the good AND the bad). If you're concerned about having a HDL level that's lower than you'd like, I don't think coconut milk will help the way you'd like it to. In cultures like Thailand, where people usually eat many more fruits and vegetables than most westerners and less meat, coconut milk is often the only source of saturated fat in the diet.
Avatar f tn Was wondering with all the heart benefits of omega 3, along with the resveratrol, and baby asa, do you have to worry about thinning your blood too much?? Is it okay to take all of these things every day?
1655526 tn?1330655629 I know that omega 3 is really supposed to be good for the heart, but I get palps after I take them for 3 days, especially krill oil. I've read in this forum that others have also had adverse reactions to taking this supplement. So I wanted to put this poll out to see how omega 3 affects you. The first time I suspected krill oil, which is supposed to be the best omega 3, I used the process of elimination. Still not believing it I did it a second and third time.
Avatar f tn The omega-3 fatty acids should be in your prenatal.
Avatar f tn you know, I haven't been taking the Omega 3 since I got pregnant - they make me nauseous. I just take my prenatals daily. I try to eat healthy(doesn't always happen) but i do try. I didnt take any Omega 3 with my other kids and their fine, so oh well.
Avatar m tn I took an Omega-3 supplement for the first time before going to bed last night, and when I woke up one eye was very swollen and puffy. The only allergies I have had are seasonal. Could I be allergic to the Omega-3 supplement?
Avatar m tn , a large producer of nuts and nut products, had put some information on its website about the health benefits of walnuts (which are rich in omega-3 fatty acids).
Avatar m tn I have the opposite effect with omega 3 from krill oil. It makes them tons worse. I take a tsp. of flax seed each day and blend them in a smoothie and that doesn't seem to bother me. What brand of plant based omega 3 do you use? After my bad experiences with krill oil, I'm kind of scared to take anything but whole flax seeds.
703362 tn?1427766328 A large egg contains 6 grams of protein, 4.5 grams of fat (1.5 of which is saturated fat) and 212 milligrams of cholesterol and it supplies 78 calories. By nature an egg is protein rich, low in sodium and contains vitamins and minerals. Eggs contain biotin, a B vitamin; calcium and cephalin. Egg yolk is one of the few foods that contain vitamin D, the sunshine vitamin. In addition, eggs are inexpensive, delicious and easy to prepare.
Avatar f tn After talking to this lady about being pregnant, she advised me to take fish oil and that it had great benefits for the baby and I. It helps the development of the babies brain. Has anyone else heard that too?
Avatar n tn Um 8 weeks pregnancy ive took sonce 3 weeks omega 3, aspocid and folic acid....plus motilium when needed. Is that safe medications...
Avatar f tn Were your Free T4 and Free T3 levels tested, along with the TSH? If you could post your actual test results, it would be very helpful for us to see where you are. Be sure to post reference ranges with any lab results posted. Has your doctor prescribed a replacement medication for you? If so, which one and what dosage? The cruciferous vegetables you mentioned are considered goitrogens and are food that inhibit synthesis of thyroid hormones.
Avatar m tn For example, with omega they wondered how eskimos could eat fat and be heart disease free, so they looked at the content of fish meat which they eat lots of. Of course, this showed up Omega oils so they ASSUMED it must be this. I have read that most people in developed countries lack both vitamin C and E, so taking these supplements are now supposed to help. However, vitamin E is a fat soluble vitamin, so it must be the jelly type capsules which also contain a drop of fat.
403156 tn?1290150018 My doc can't stress the benefits of Omega 3 and Flax Seed powder enough. He says there is real life research showing all the benefits they have on mood, not to mention, heart and arteries. If you take Omega # my doc says if it smells like fish, it's a cheap grade. Go for the higher grade oils. They shouldn't have an odor.
