Avatar f tn Cod liver oil isn't the best fish oil for inflammation or for omega 3 oils. It comes in gel caps, which you don't taste at all. Nordic Naturals is a very good brand for omega 3 rich fish oil.
Avatar m tn I love chocolate, and still indulge from time to time...but I will have to be the killjoy here on one point only...the sugar content and the way this triggers too much insulin as well as too much fat storage in the liver need to be weighed. Yes chocolate is high in omega 3's...that's a good thing...but ONLY if they haven't taken out the cacao fat and substituted another kind.
Avatar m tn My recent ultrasound "suggest cluster of calcification in high left lobe. No focal soft tissue abnormality associated with it." My doctor believe it is no issue. I search the internet. It looks like it may be caused by inflammation. I have been taking viread since 2010. My DNA is undetected. Liver funtions are all normal. Where did this inflammation come from? Wouldn't the inflammation cause ALT/AST rise? Anybody has similar experiences?

Avatar f tn You should be taking omega 3 in any case. Statins, by lowering cholesterol, also interfere with the absorption of fat soluble nutrients, which of course includes omega 3. The most important for the heart is EFA, which is found in largest amounts in fish oil, but flax and hemp oil are also very high in omega 3 oils. But omega 3 oils don't do the same thing as statins. Statins lower LDL cholesterol, the bad kind, whereas omega 3 oils provide the good kind of cholesterol, HDL.
Avatar m tn I am keen to balance out any hormone imbalance but i seem to have a sensitivity to omega 3, or perhaps is it iodine? Most of the literature online seems to suggest omega 3 will reduce inflammation, thereby helping reduce acne.
317787 tn?1473358451 As for helping stiffness, Omega 3 oils might help with inflammation, and when used in conjunction with other anti-inflammatories such as turmeric and ginger and many others might work a whole lot better. But stiffness isn't the same as inflammation, so whether this will help depends on why you're stiff.

Avatar m tn Fish oil pills are an excellent way to raise your HDL and lower LDL due to the high content of the Omege 3 fatty acids that they contain. Anything that has a high Omega 3 content will have this effect, such as flax seed. Most commercial eggs are commonly high in Omega 6 fatty acids due to the fact that they are raised in cages and eat the seeds of plants that have a high Omega 6 content. Omega 6 fatty acids have the effect of raising LDL levels in the blood.
Avatar f tn My shitzu dog is 7 years old and has kidney stones and allergies.He also has high cholesterol(Cushings' disease suspected). He weighs about 10 lbs. Is it safe for me to give him omega 3 capsules and what should be the dosage? Thank you, Mrs.
Avatar m tn Some experts have said that the balance between Omega 6 fatty acids and Omega 3 is key, but just as many say this is nonsense. Omega 3 do have benefits, mainly reducing inflammation in the body, such as in the arteries or joints. It can also reduce your clotting factor if taken in too high doses, causing excessive bleeding. Experts do agree on one thing, take omega 3 acids from foods rather than supplements. Without a doubt, having enough Omega 3 acids in your diet does improve health.
Avatar f tn there is a lot of omega 6 bad fat into peanut butter, as I posted before about omega 6 and omega 3 , we eat a lot of omega 6 every day and not enough omega 3 that unbalanced our system and create inflammation in our body and inflammation create a lot of illness as PATM is one of theses, the Black seeds people take is working of course!!! its a really good anti inflammatory for the body. turmeric too is a really good anti inflammatory if ever you want to try..
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 m tn Carefully check your diet for inflammatory foods as well, and elimiate any intolerances you have (get off gluten and dairy for an extended period). Would also recommend a good Omega 3 EFA supplement.
Avatar m tn The treatment in the form of fibrates and omega 3 fatty acid against prescription are also quiet effective in lowering triglycerides. If these levels do not come down then even addition of other class of drugs like nicotinic acid can be considered only on prescription by a physician. You need to take all the mentioned precautionary steps as you are at high risk for stroke and heart attack as compared to normal population.
