The Omega 3 Diet Revolution
Worldwide attention was drawn to omega-3 fatty acids when Bang and Dyerburg, two Danish researchers working in the 1970s, found that the Inuit people of Greenland had a much lower incidence of cardiovascular disease than Danish people, despite a diet high in fat.
What was their secret?
The striking feature of the Inuit diet was a high intake of Omega-3 fatty acids from fish and seafood.
Since then, thousands of studies conducted throughout the world have demonstrated the protective, healing and life-enhancing powers of omega-3 fats.
Eating a diet rich in Omega-3 oils can prevent serious diseases such as heart disease, cancer and diabetes, reduce inflammatory processes throughout the body, protect against depression and increase our life span.
Of added interest is the role of Omega-3s during the human life cycle.
At all ages and stages of life - from unborn babies through to seniors - omega-3s are not just important to our health and wellbeing, they are essential.
