The Top 3 Drugs Compared to Omega 3 Fish Oil
Do you realize there have been thousands of studies that have shown omega 3 fish oil to be natures most effective and potent anti-inflammatory available today?
And did you also know omega 3 fatty acids have been found to be just as effective (if not more so) and certainly a lot safer and less expensive than the three best selling prescription drugs.
Yet Americans spend only about $300 million on fish oil supplements and over $30 billion on antidepressants, high blood pressure drugs and anti-inflammatory arthritis and headache pain relievers - the top selling three classes of drugs.
Not only are they not really particularly effective, they may have serious side effects that may do more harm than good. Often patients are required to take another controversial drug to counteract the harmful effect of the first. Some of them, such as Vioxx, have even been taken off the market because they cause heart attacks and strokes.
And they have serious side effects that may do more harm than good. They often require patients to take yet another questionable drug to counteract the damaging effect of the first. Some of these drugs, such as Vioxx, were even taken off the market because they were found to cause heart attacks and strokes.
Regardless of how attractive tv commercials make these prescription drugs out to be they are dangerous at best. Whenever possible, prescription drugs should be avoided and natural alternative treatments perused instead.
Are you aware there are other safer, more natural ways to both prevent and relieve depression, high blood pressure and inflammatory pain without resorting to prescription drugs? And one of the best alternatives is to eat fatty fish such as salmon, sardines, herring or tuna at least two or three times a week and take a good quality daily fish oil supplement.
When you take a look at the evidence, it is quite clear.
Depressed people have significantly lower total omega 3 levels (Journal of Affective Disorders, Vol. 26, No. 38, 35-46), while omega 3 supplements showed significant benefits in just three weeks of treatment (American Journal of Psychiatry, Vol. 159:477-479). In other studies, omega 3 fatty acids were found to be an effective treatment for bipolar disorder (Archives of General Psychiatry, Vol. 56 No. 5) and borderline personality disorder patients (American Journal of Psychiatry, Vol. 160:167-169).
And fish oil is so highly effective at lowering blood pressure the American Heart Association (AHA) and the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) recommend everyone eat cold water, fatty fish at least a couple of times a week.
The AHA and NIH also recommend people with high blood pressure and other heart disease symptoms take daily fish oil supplements that provide at least 1,000 mgs of combined omega 3 DHA and EPA fatty acids.
And as far as inflammatory arthritis and headache pain relief is concerned, omega 3 fish oil has been found to be nature's most safest, potent and effective alternative to over the counter NSAIDs such as Advil, Motrin, Nuprin and Aleve and other anti-inflammatories (Arthritis and Rheumatism, Vol. 38: 1107-14.)
Actually, after starting an omega 3 fish oil supplement treatment program many patients in research studies were able to greatly reduce and sometimes eliminate their pain medicines.
And, if you're concerned about toxins in fish oil, the Harvard University School of Public Health says you can sit back, relax and enjoy your broiled salmon dinner. After reviewing all the relative studies, they recently confirmed fish oil benefits far outweigh the threat of mercury or other toxins in fish by as much as 500 to one. (Journal of the American Medical Association 2006, Vol. 296: 1885-99)
Besides, if you look, you can find high quality omega 3 fish oil supplements that are fully guaranteed to be absolutely pure and totally free of all toxicity (www.omega-3.us).
Therefore, prior to starting a drug program or even if you are already on one consider eating more dish and taking omega 3 fish oil supplements instead. Who knows? You just may get better or equal results without the dangerous side effects and save a bundle of money at the same time. Now that sounds like a winning combination to me, don't you think? - 17269
