FoundMyFitness | Omega-3 may reduce risk of premature death @FoundMyFitness | Uploaded August 2021 | Updated October 2024, 10 hours ago.
Omega-3 fatty acids may be profoundly beneficial for the heart. It’s hard to overstate the broad, multi-system biological impact of omega-3 fatty acids, particularly marine omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid. Recent research reveals that high blood concentrations of omega-3s may even reduce the risk of dying from all causes of premature death by as much as 17 percent. Even more compelling: High blood concentrations of these essential nutrients may reduce the risk of dying from cardiovascular disease by as much as 21 percent.
