Everybody has heard the health professionals in the magazines, in the papers and on the TV raving about the benefits of Omega 3, 6 & 9 fatty acids and how we as humans often struggle to get enough of them. And of course they are right, these fatty acids are extremely good for the body and they are also especially beneficial for a healthy heart!
The Omega 3 fatty acids increase the HDL cholesterol (this is the good cholesterol that we hear about in the adverts) and help to lower the LDL cholesterol (the one that does our hearts no good at all). Regular ingestion of Omega 3 can significantly reduce the chances of suffering from heart problems.
The Omega 6 fatty acids are great in helping the body grow and develop new cells, thus helping us repair quicker and look younger!
It is thanks to the amazing anti-inflammatory properties of these Omega fatty acids that we have seen the adoption of Emu Oil in use in sports medicine and also by professional sports teams/bodies to help combat joint and muscle pain.
