Omega Oils Posted: 04-16-05 22:34pm
This isn't a vitamin question per se, but
has anyone heard about the benefits of of
omega 3 6 and 9s for health and weight?
It's supposed to make your "brown fat"
(the good fat) healthy so you can
metabolize fat access fat better. Has
anyone ever heard of this? Do you think
it's true?
Also, what are good sources of these oils?
Thanks.

Does that mean taking them are good for
you? Do they make you lose weight? And
can you get more than enough of them? I
am taking 2 tablespoons of safflower oil
and 1 teaspoon of flaxseed oil a day.
What do you think this will do?

Omega 3 Posted: 11-02-05 23:02pm
Apparently from all that I have seen, it
does help with weight. It is also reputed
to help lower cholesterol, improve brain
function, help with skin, hair ect.....
The problem with flax seed oil and
safflower is that they provide very little
of the dha, which is the one that we
really lack ( a strain or something of one
of the omega 3's)
fish oil is the best option, although the
flax seed and such are still good they
just don't cut it. (not cod liver oil,
either)
we do not lack in omega 6 in our diets,
however I can find little info on omega 9.
Anyone have any info on it.?

Yes Omegas Are Healthy But There Is More Than That. Posted: 03-19-06 18:20pm
The true answer and key to our dis-eases
is the link between our natural antibodies
and us. Known as probiotics these are
what make us strong.
