Fish Oil Benefits For The Elderly

dere'k ™ · **on:** August 09, 2013, 10:31:45 PM

Fish oils are high in omega-3 fatty acids. According to a recent U.K. study, omega-3 fatty acids may help build muscle and reduce age-related immobility. While fish oil supplements have many benefits to people of all ages, including improved cardiovascular health, and a lower risk of cancer, this study focused on fish oil’s muscle-building ability.

Immobility is a problem for older adults when a decreased ability to get around leads to social isolation. Seniors who avoid activities because they are afraid of falling may become depressed the longer they stay home, not seeing friends or meeting new people.

Seniors who eat a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids will loss less muscle mass over time according to researchers. Everyone loses muscle mass as they age but slowing the muscle loss will help prevent frailness and weakness we see in some elderly persons.

Fish oil rich in omega-3 fatty acids is found in mackerel, sturgeon, tuna, salmon, anchovies, trout, sardines, and herring. Fish oil supplements are popular with people who are not fond of fish or who do not get enough of these types of fish in their diet.

Seniors should never exceed the recommended dosage if taking fish oil supplements. More than 3 grams of fish oil per day may reduce the blood’s ability to clot. In addition, anyone taking medications to reduce their immune system’s activity should check with their doctor before added fish oil supplements to their diet.

i've heard sa news few weeks ago, men should avoid fish oil supplements kasi it may cause prostate cancer. kaya guys go for natural na lang sa fish oil.
