Uses
Doctors, nutritionists and health experts agree that omega-3s, particularly those in Fiberrific +omega-3 (DHA & EPA), are important to your health throughout your entire life. DHA & EPA are the building blocks for the cells in your vital organs and your body requires these omega-3s in order to function properly. These specific omega-3s have a wide variety of clinical benefits for your brain, heart and for growth and development.
Your Heart
Extensive clinical research shows the omega-3s in Fiberrific +omega-3 help to prevent the plaque deposits and blood clots, which lead to strokes and heart attacks. Studies also show these omega-3s can reduce the risk of other coronary diseases and conditions that may lead to strokes and heart attacks. Many health agencies and associations, including the American Heart Association, consider these specific omega-3s to be essential to a healthy heart. They recognize the many cardiovascular health benefits of the omega-3s found in Fiberrific +omega-3, including:
- Reduced risk of strokes and heart attacks
- Reduction in blood viscosity
- Relaxing of blood vessels
- Lowering of blood pressure
- Reduced risk of blood clots in coronary arteries (thrombosis, anti-thrombotic properties)
- Protection against heartbeat abnormalities (arrhythmia, ventricular tachycardia, fibrillation)
- Reduction of triglycerides (blood fat levels)
- Protection against hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis)
- Protection against plaque fat ruptures leading to strokes and heart attacks
Your Brain
No one would argue that a healthy brain is vital to good health. Your brain requires omega-3s to perform optimally. In fact, over 60% of your brain is made up of structural fat of which over 1/3 is DHA and it requires a regular intake of the healthy fats found in Fiberrific +omega-3. It needs these "good" fats to function properly. Deficiencies in these omega-3s have been linked to:
- Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
- Dyslexia
- Depression and aggression
- Mood swings
- Memory problems, Alzheimer disease and dementia Depression
Consuming the omega-3s found in Fiberrific +omega-3 daily is vital for the normal functioning of your brain and nervous system.
Your Body
The omega-3s found in Fiberrific +omega-3 are essential for a healthy body. These “essential” fatty acids play a crucial role in normal growth and development and they are the building blocks for cells in all your vital organs. Research shows they also contribute to the reduction of compounds that cause inflammation in your body. Studies show they help to reduce the risk of rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory skin disorders, and inflammatory bowel diseases.
Studies also show these omega-3s can help guard against degenerative conditions, including loss of eyesight caused by macular degeneration, Alzheimer's disease and respiratory illness.
Inflammatory Conditions
Inflammation is your body's response to specific compounds it produces. These responses can range from mild swelling to severe pain and irritation. Research shows that the omega-3s found in Fiberrific +omega-3 can help reduce or suppress the production of many of these inflammatory compounds. The omega-3s found in Fiberrific +omega-3 have also been shown to be effective in reducing inflammation from rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn's disease, colitis and asthma.
