Omega 3 Fatty Acids to Fight Depression
May 30, 2009 – 8:35 pmFoods high in omega 3 fatty acids now have a new name: Good Mood Food. A recent articles series relating to how to deal with the holiday blues recommended eating foods rich in omega 3 fatty acids including tuna, salmon, and trout.
Most studies conducted have indicated that you need to eat 3 to 4 servings of omega 3 fatty acids if not more to have a positive impact on your mood. At the very least, you are going to start feeling pretty fishy before you start feeling better.
Rather than stuffing your face with fish, you could opt to take a simple fish oil supplement instead.
Omega 3 Salmon Oil Plus supplements can provide you with ample amounts of omega 3 fatty acids without making you smell like fish or making you nauseous like when consuming large amounts of fish. They also do not contain the trace toxins that make tuna and other game fish potentially dangerous for children and pregnant women.
