Major Health Problems of Getting Omega-3 From Fish

• Fish collect and concentrate toxins in their fatty tissues. These toxins include pesticides chlorinated hydrocarbons, Dixie, chlorine, and warn against eating certain species.

• Cancer in fish is increasing

• No mandatory inspection of fish

Happily, there is a way to have the benefits of the Omega-3 fatty acids without the risk of eating fish, fish oil, or expensive supplements. There is a way to bypass the cholesterol and toxins that come with the animal-derived Omega-3. The way is so simple, yet it is not getting the publicity it deserves. We can obtain the benefits of Omega-3 fatty acids from a plant fat called " acid".

It is possible for both meat-eaters and vegetarians to have a diet too low in Omega-3 fats. For individuals who have depression or bipolar disorder. I recommend that each day they consume dishes that include some foods high in Omega-3. (Reference is made to a study done on Bipolar Disorder patients who were given 0.6 grams of Omega-3 supplements from fish oil per day with promising results). Commenting on this study Dr. Joseph Calaboose and colleagues at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, call the trial a "landmark attempt in drug development for Bipolar Disorder". I would agree that it was a landmark study. However, no drugs were used, but Omega-3 supplements only.

I recommend that at least one meal a day include food high in Omega-3. I also recommend a minimum supplementation of 9 grams (9000 milligrams) of Omega-3 fats per day - ideally from plant sources.
