New research confirms that omega-3 fatty acids may help save your heart, and relieve depression.
Harvard School of Public Health researchers recently examined records of nearly 85,000 participants in the Nurses’ Health Study and found a 33 per cent drop in heart disease risk among those who took in the most omega-3s by regularly eating fish.
Plus, scientists at Ben Gurion University in Israel observed that fish oil supplements, which contain omega-3s, may reduce depression symptoms when taken along with patients’ regular antidepressant medication.
To reap the health benefits of omega-3s, load up on foods like flaxseed, leafy greens, and cold-water fish (such as salmon, mackerel and tuna) two to three times a week.
