You’ve probably already heard that getting more Omega 3 polyunsaturated fats in your diet is really good for your health. Really good.

Scientists are finding more and more reasons to take more Omega 3 fats into our bodies. Our hearts, our eyes, our brains, our organs, there’s so many reasons to get more good fats into our body.

There’s 2 essential fatty acids found in fish oil, the best source of Omega 3 fats. One is DHA and the other is EPA. DHA is the most important, but EPA is pretty important too. Both are what are essential polyunsaturated fats.

And fish oil has plenty of good Omega 3 fats in it, so most Omega 3 supplements are based on fish oil.

But there is a third important essential fatty acid called ALA and it is the plant based form of Omega 3. It is converted in the body to DHA, although there is some doubt over how much is converted and for this reason DHA is considered better.

What you eat is what gives you your Omega 3. By far the best way to get a daily dose is to take fish oil supplements daily, but adding some more Omega 3 fats to your diet using some Omega 3 recipes from a good Omega 3 cookbook.

There is both bad fats and good fats. The good fats are the Omega 3 fats, the bad ones are saturated fats found in diary foods and meat. So if you find some good Omega 3 recipes and start reducing the bad fats and increasing the good fats you’ll do a power of good for your health.

For example olive oil, canola oil, and flaxseed oil have healthy Omega 3 fats in them. And some foods also have good fats. For example walnuts. Brussels sprouts, kale, spinach, and salad greens do as well.

Whilst the vegetables have ALA fish, particularly oily fish, has DHA. So adding fish to your diet is great. But the FDA tells us to eat only moderate amounts of fish due to chemical contamination.

So if you take your fishoil supplements daily and you also do some Omega 3 cooking then you’re way in front. Find a good Omega 3 cookbook with plenty of Omega 3 recipes and you’re on your way to good health.

So grab a good Omega 3 cookbook and start making some recipes. Buy a high Omega oil to cook with and begin cooking some Omega 3 recipes for the family.

So remember, take your fish oil supplements for that DHA and EPA and find a good Omega 3 cookbook. Start cutting back on the saturated fat foods and concentrate on high Omega 3 recipes when you’re cooking.
