Jigsaw Health’s Omega-3 Fish Oil Supplements Provide A Heart Healthy Solution


Omega-3 Fish Oil Supplements Have Proven to Provide Help with Heart Disease, Improve Cardiovascular Health, Regulate Blood Pressure; Jigsaw Health, the Leading Resource for Chronic Conditions introduces these and Other New Products Including Minimal Mercury Tuna and King Salmon.

Scottsdale, AZ (PRWEB) September 29, 2005 -- Jigsaw Health, the nation's leading resource for chronic health conditions, today announced the addition of three new products: a propriety line of Omega 3 Fish Oil Supplements as well as Carvalho minimal mercury albacore tuna and Carvalho wild caught king salmon.

Jigsaw Health's Essential Omega-3 Fish Oil Supplement is a pure fish oil blend of cold-water fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Studies have shown that regularly taking heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids can help reduce the risk for coronary heart disease. Omega-3 fatty acids have also been found to reduce the internal inflammation that leads to many chronic health conditions, including heart disease, cancer, diabetes, autoimmune diseases, and others.

Heart-healthy fish oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, the critically important polyunsaturated fats with powerful healing powers. Cold-water fish are exceptionally rich sources of omega-3 fatty acids—and the colder the water, the more omega-3 fatty acids there are in the fish. Salmon, sardines, sea bass, tuna, trout, mackerel, and anchovy contain eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexanoic acid (DHA), the most potent forms of omega-3s. Because omega-3 oils mostly come from cold-water fish and wild game—not often found in most American diets—most people don't get enough of these essential fatty acids (EFAs). In addition, many food processors eliminate natural omega-3 oils, which have a tendency to spoil, to keep their products fresher.

Scientific evidence for the benefits of fatty fish and fish oil has been building since the late 1970s when it was discovered that the native Inuits, who ate a diet high in omega-3 fatty acids, had surprisingly low heart attack rates. Since then, thousands of studies have shown that omega-3 fatty acids promote cardiovascular health—and can help treat a host of other physiological and neurological disorders.

Given the mounting evidence, the American Heart Association released new dietary recommendations in the fall of 2000 advising that everyone eat at least two 3-ounce servings of fatty fish every week. Others suggest three or more servings of fish per week. Health conscious consumers who don't eat cold water fish two to three times a week should consider a high-quality fish oil supplement with at least 18 % EPA (180 mg) and 12 % DHA (120 mg), according to Jigsaw Health President Patrick Sullivan.

Consumers interested in getting omega-3 fish oil in their diets can also try Jigsaw's Carvalho minimal mercury albacore tuna and Carvalho wild caught king salmon both being sold online at Jigsaw Health.
