As you read labels on foods you have probably seen the word Omega 3 and had no idea what it was. Omega 3 can be found in eggs and milk and now you will see it added to cereals and yogurts.  Only in the last few years has it been better known and seen more often in the foods we eat.

If you eat fish, then you are getting Omega 3 because that is the most common source. Having a meal that includes fish is a good way to get the share you need for optimum health.  Some researchers say that Omega 3 can slow the aging process but there is more to know than just that.  Exercise and eating properly must also be part of that picture.

Omega 3 will boost your immune system and some people who feel the flu coming on will take it claiming it makes the flu less severe.  Others say it raises their energy level and because we are all different, your benefits might not be the same as what you read here.  When you shop for fish, go with the smaller fish as the larger ones can contain more mercury because of their size.  If you make Omega 3 part of your life, you are taking an important step toward better health.
