6 POWER Supplements - Why You Need Them?

(2) The Right Fat is Essential: Essential fatty acids (EFAs) like omega-3 and omega-6 are not produced by your body, yet they are vital to your overall health. EFAs enhance the normal function of the brain, eyes, adrenals glands, as well as the cardiovascular, and reproductive systems.  Also, the membranes of the cells throughout the body require essential fatty acids to keep them healthy and elastic.

EFAs are also required for the production of series 1 and 3 prostaglandins, potent anti-inflammatory agents that help regulate blood pressure, the breakdown of fat and cholesterol in the blood, heart rate,, blood clotting, and immune system response.  According to the International Journal of Oncology, EFAs help reduce inflammation on the cells lining the intestines and have been shown to help with bowel concerns including irritable bowel syndrome, colitis, and even cancer.

Omega-3 oil has been shown to lower blood pressure and reduce blood viscosity and clotting.  Omega-3 fatty acids can substantially lower risk of heart disease by lowering LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, preventing blood platelets from becoming sticky and lowering blood pressure.

Omega-3 has also been shown to enhance the body's response to insulin.  In fact a study found in the New England Journal of Medicine reported that omega-3 oils are the most effective treatment for acute whole-body resistance to insulin.
