Diet and wellbeing guru Doctor Michael Mosley has recently advocated for the use of Omega 3 supplements as a beneficial addition to one’s diet. In a post on his Instagram feed, Dr. Mosley highlighted the potential impact of Omega 3 supplements on various health issues, including diabetes, obesity, blood pressure, cholesterol, and inflammation.
According to Dr. Mosley, Omega 3 supplements can play a significant role in improving metabolic health. Regular consumption of Omega 3, whether through supplements or from sources such as oily fish, may contribute to reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes, central obesity, blood pressure, insulin resistance, cholesterol, and inflammation. Additionally, research suggests that Omega 3 can also have a positive effect on mood and brain function.
Omega 3 is commonly found in fish and other seafood, particularly cold-water fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, tuna, herring, and sardines. It is also present in nuts and seeds such as flaxseed, chia seeds, and walnuts, as well as in various plant oils.
