Omega 3’s are essential fatty acids required by the body in order to fight against many diseases. Usually these fatty acids are not present in most people’s diet because of the under consumption of fish and over consumption of vegetable oils.

The main difference between fish oil and cod liver oil is that cod liver oil is high in vitamin D. The cod liver oil has the advantage of providing vitamin D, which is necessary for most of us in the United States in the cold months of winter, when we don’t get very much sun exposure on our skin in order to make natural vitamin D.

Many people get confused about the difference between fish oil liquid and cod liver oil. You can consider cod liver oil as fish oil+. The two are the same except that cod liver oil contains natural vitamin D and A.

For people who already take a multiple vitamin that supplies Vitamin A and take supplemental Vitamin D I recommend a fish oil. And for those people that don’t take any additional natural supplements I generally recommend cod liver oil.

Either one of these sources of omega 3 fatty acids is one of the best things you can do for your health. The list of benefits is ever growing and truly amazing.

Maybe you want to improve or prevent ADD/ADHD, bad moods, poor concentration, bad vision, and other disorders. Here is some explanation as to why low omega 3 fatty acids and children’s health are related, the new children’s behaviors we can expect with an adequate fish oil supply, and why pregnant and lactating mothers should supplement with omega 3.

Omega 3 fatty acids and children’s mental health may offer an explanation as to why all these mental disorders are increasing at a fast pace in our society. The human rain is about 60% fat by weight, DHA is one of the two essential fatty acids that form the fish oil omega 3 and is the most abundant natural fat in the brain.

Imagine a child learning at school. The process of learning requires the brain to form new neural connections. DHA is needed in this building process, especially for the delicate neural synapses which are composed entirely of DHA. This child, like the vast majority of U.S. children, eats almost no Omega-3 fatty acids. What does the brain do? Again, it struggles and finally uses other types of fats, which are the wrong type Trans Fats or omega 6.

DHA is particularly important for fetuses and infants; the DHA content of the infant’s brain triples during the first three months of life. Optimal levels of DHA are therefore crucial for pregnant and lactating mothers. Unfortunately, the average DHA content of breast milk in the United States is the lowest in the world, most likely because Americans eat comparatively little fish.

The good news is that if you begin to supply adequate amounts of fish oil for kids, they will react quickly to this improved nutrition. Do your children a great favor and make sure they are getting a good natural omega 3 supplement in their daily diet.

He continued -

Since China joined the World Trade Organization in 2001, the U.S. safety inspectors are overwhelmed by soaring imports from China, where environmental laws, food safety and control work are weak, lax and regulation. In 2009, 70 percent of apple juice, 43 percent of processed mushrooms, frozen spinach, 22 percent and 78 percent of Americans eat tilapia comes from China.

China has a poor safety record of the food market and many more materials have their origin there.

One of the interesting things that are not included in this discussion is that water fluoridation is done by adding Cargill Fertilizer wastewater community sources, such as Everett, Seattle and more. China’s apple juice concentrate can be reconstituted with fluoridated water. Arsenic in the water with help teeth (no cavities in Seattle by the level continued to rise since the beginning) is suspected. This year, our government has stated that fluoride is increased too much and many doctors recommend pregnant women to prevent. Levels of prostate cancer is associated with higher levels of arsenic. Minority communities have a higher risk.

Vaccines containing other heavy metals, some products are in the vaccine.

And to be frank, heavy metal exposure is cumulative, and dangerous.

Not sure where it comes from the FDA, but maybe it was from changes in currency Monsanto, Cargill, and PhRMA companies you sparys large plants that are known to cause the arrest and other serious problems such as severe skin rashes health and Parkinson’s.
