Avatar m tn Recently I heard that taking omega 3 capsules( the transparent one) will increase the risk of prostate cancer. Is there any scientific studies conducted on the subject?

296340 tn?1336164001 Nuts and seeds, including almonds, walnuts and pumpkin seeds, are a great source of fatty acids. Omega 3 and omega fatty acids are hormone regulators and vital to a woman’s fertility since a hormonal imbalance can interfere with ovulation. Cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli, cabbage and cauliflower, contain Vitamin A as well as a substance called di-indolylmethane, which regulates the metabolism of estrogen that is essential for keeping fertility hormones in check.
671251 tn?1236116671 It also said that flax seed and flax seed oil are high in Omega 3 fatty acids without the worry of mercury. Flax seed flour is good to add to foods in place of some of the flour. It has to be ground or crushed to be used by our bodies. Walnuts are another good source too. I found a good recipe for salmon cakes in Joy of Cooking. Here is the recipe I used.
Avatar f tn There are also other seeds that taste better for protein, such as good old sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds. Nuts are essentially seeds. That's why these are all classified as fruits, but they are high in protein. Legumes include peanuts, azuki beans, anasazi beans, pinto beans, black beans, red beans, kidney beans, white kidney beans, garbonzo beans -- I mean, there's a lot of beans out there, and all are high in protein.
Avatar n tn But hemp seeds and flax seeds, while containing some Omega 6 fats, contain high amounts of Omega 3 fats, which are essential for health. Some Omega 6 is also essential for health, as is Omega 9 and other fats.

Avatar n tn Certain foods are rich in omega fatty acids as well, like macadamia and walnuts, pumpkin seeds and freshwater fish, such as salmon and tuna. And Ester-C (gentler on the stomach than plain vitamin C) can help with circulation to the area. Using moist heat might help relax some of the stiffness she feels. If she is in an acute phase of bursitis, I would think they should rest the area until the inflammation has subsided enough to gently take on exercising.
1655526 tn?1330655629 On Omega-3 supplements, I notice a significant increase in PVCs as well as slight increase in general twitchiness or anxiety. Yeah, it's a sample size of one and I'm the only observer, but that's the way it seems to me. However, some scientists have observed problems in giving patients these supplements: http://www.examiner.
Avatar f tn Trying to eat balanced meals and snacking on pumpkin seeds , sunflower seeds, walnuts, apricots and cantaloupe along with some green juices are pretty much all she is eating. No junk food. Yes, and no alcohol. Of course she wants to go out and get back to a normal life. It breaks my heart to watch. It has been very scary. I am hoping someone with a similar experience will reply.

Avatar f tn t eaten anything resembling these seeds and now I notice that in a firmer BM the seeds are impacted in the stool. It also feels like they are embedded in the folds of my swollen anus. I'm starting to think that it might be a parasite and that could explain my other symptoms, which my doctor is currently doing tests to see if they are from gallbladder dysfunction. Has anyone passed anything similar to these or know what they are?

Avatar m tn Thyme, turmeric, garlic, hing, fenugreek, cayenne, parsley and cinnamon are slightly antiparasitic spices. Pumpkin seeds are good, too, as well as grated carrot and soymilk. But it is important to get the medication to kill the tapeworm head!
Avatar f tn whey, fish, dairy products (low fat variety), meats, unroasted nuts and seeds (almonds, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds). Milk is one of the best muscle foods. The milk contains two high quality proteins, about 80 percent whey and 20 percent casein. Whey is quickly broken down into amino acids and absorbed into the bloodstream. Whey is very good to consume after workout.
Avatar f tn They are so safe have them with some banana and peanut butter.. The baby will like it.
Avatar f tn In addition to thyroid problem, lowered female hormones, and a medication side effect with some drugs, stress can actually make your hair fall out as well. It happened to me. I had a doctor on the radio tell me to take vit. B 50 time release (if it's a good one, it should turn your urine bright yellow), ester-C & 100 IU (I think) of vit. E.
973741 tn?1342342773 Hello. I had a pumpkin last fall that was broken into for the seeds by a ravenous squirrel. I discarded the pumpkin but where the event occured, right by my front door step, a pumpkin seed survived and is now growing a luscious pumpkin plant. At first I was thrilled---------- how cool to grow my own pumpkins! It must be the absolute perfect spot as that plant is growing BIG and there are lots of flowers and pumpkins starting on it. Here is my question . . . well, it is taking over.
475555 tn?1469304339 What is it with this link-snipping stuff? Sheesh! Here are the missing words, in the same order: flaxcouncil bioriginal These are pretty worthwhile websites for anyone interested in beefing up their poly-unsaturated fatty acids. Flax seems to be better than fish and almost as good as chia (unfortunately, one of the chia species IS used in those horrendous pet thingies, but the one high in omega-3 fatty acids is apparently another species of chia that grows in Peru).
Avatar f tn it won't hurt you.
Avatar n tn Now it is the dry hard stools. She weighs 15 lbs. Would a tablespoon or ? of pumpkin be helpful at each meal? Pumpkin was helpful in the past with my dalmations years ago for a similar problem. Thank you for your help.
