- FISH OIL (Omega 3) :
Rich Source of Omega 3 Fatty Acids.
Nutrition researchers recommend EPA fish oils for preventative cardiovascular
health as well as arthritis relief.
This high-potency EPA fish oil concentrate
supplement, supplies the highest natural concentration of Omega-3 Fatty
Acids (polyunsaturates).
Epa (Fat Acids Omega 3):
They are precursory of the prostaglandins
3 that prevent the aggregation with plaquetas preventing the trombosis
and arteriosclerosis (it would have an action similar to the aspirin).
They help in the control of the arterial pressure (with which they are
useful in the hypertense ones) and diminish the retention of liquids
as much as the inflammation of the arterial wall.
They would prevent the infarct with myocardium.
They would improve the function of the central nervous system being
of utility in dementias, depressions, bipolar disease, even in schizophrenias.
It would help to the reduction of the cholesterol LDL ("bad")
and of the triglicéridos ones; increasing a fraction of cholesterol
HDL ("good")
OMEGA 3: Vasodilator function.
The Omega-3 is poliinsaturates fatty acids
of long chain that cannot be synthesized by the organism, reason why
they are denominated " essential ". They act an important
vasodilator and regulating as of the wall of the blood vessels, favoring
the operation of such. In addition, they are precursory of the prostaglandins,
the tromboxanos and the leucotrienos, reason why they play a fundamental
roll in the organism, since they are implied in the development of the
nervous system, the regulation of the sanguineous pressure, the action
of other hormones, some inflammatory actions anti and certain mechanisms
of defense.
In the family of these fatty acids Omega-3
emphasizes the acid alpha-linolénico and its metabolitos: the
eicosapentanoico acid (EPA) and the docosahexanoico (DHA), that prevents
the coagulation of the veins and the arteries, favoring the fluidity
of the sanguineous circulation and the correct operation of the heart.
Thus, there are clear indications that the development of cardiac arrhythmias
is much less common in patients with high levels of EPA and DHA. Therefore,
the people who daily consume the suitable amount of Omega-3 have more
capacity to surpass an attack cardiac.
This way, a person who grafts a monthly
amount average of 5.5 Omega-3 g. (DHA+EPA) reduces to half the risk
of undergoing sudden death in comparison with an individual that has
not consumed these substances. The nutricionistas recommend, either
to take from 200 to 300 grams of fish three times to the week, or to
graft between 10 and 15 grams daily of oil of blue fish (they represent
of 5 grams of 3 fatty acids Omega-3) to cover the necessities with our
organism. In the growth stage, the necessary amount for the normal operation
of the organism is greater, since in the adult the necessity is due
solely to satisfy with renovation, explains Dr. Entrala.
This rich consumption in Omega-3 has a
comparable effect to the one of the betabloqueantes or the IECA (inhibiting
of the enzyme of conversion of the angiotensina), drugs that usually
are used in the antihypertensive treatment.
The fatty acids Omega-3 mainly are in the
blue fish (sardine, salmon, herring, tuna, codfish...) and/or nutricionales
supplements. For the people who do not support the idea to take fish,
thanks to the new technologies today are available in most of the European
supermarkets many products enriched with Omega-3, such as milk, the
margarina, the cakes, the bread, et cetera, thus helping to cover the
necessary amounts of Omega-3 for a good health.
These poliinsaturados fatty acids of contained
long chain reduce the level of triglicéridos in the plasma, one
of the most important causes of the coronary diseases.
The American Association of the Heart has
updated the guidelines recently to take a diet heals and between its
new features, Omega-3 recommends to consume two weekly rations of rich
fish in denominated fats.
Would have reason our mothers and grandmothers
who advised to eat fish because " it fortified the brain "?
