Omega 3 has been the subject of considerable attention in the San Diego medical community in the past few years.
“It not only plays a vital role in the health of the membrane of every cell in our body, it also helps protect us from a number of key health threats” says Laurie Tansman, a nutritionist at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York.
Because our bodies cannot manufacture Omega 3, we have to get it from the foods we eat in San Diego. Gleaning enough Omega 3 from the average Los Angeles diet is difficult and there is another tricky challenge to the Omega 3 dilemma; maintaining the proper balance of Omega 3 and Omega 6. These essential fatty acids work in tandem to perform important physiological functions and guard against many chronic conditions.
San Diego dietitians recommend a ratio of 4 parts Omega 3 to 1 part Omega 6. The typical La Jolla diet contains 20 times more Omega 6 than Omega 3! Clearly, most San Diego people have a long way to go to correct the imbalance.
If your great-grandmother gave each of her children a spoonful of cod liver oil every day, she instinctively understood the critical necessity of Omega 3. If you want your San Diego family to get enough Omega 3, you could give them fish oil in liquid or capsules (-Keep a few tins of Altoids on hand) or, you could give them Healthy Chocolate Omega Squares.
Healthy Omega Squares have 200mg of DHA and EPA per three 11 gram squares. If you enjoy San Diego Healthy Chocolate Omega Squares daily, you will eventually correct the Omega 3-Omega 6 imbalance in your body.
The following information about Omega 3 is from the Harvard School of Public Health:
“Omega 3 fatty acids are also associated with many health benefits, including protection against heart disease and possibly stroke. New studies are identifying potential benefits for a wide range of conditions including cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, and other autoimmune diseases such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.
