Fish oil helps prevent lupus

Posted on Nov 12th 2007 10:55PM by Martha Edwards
Fish oil is one supplement that's gaining lots of recognition lately for its amazing benefits. Here's another one: Fish oil has been shown to help treat lupus. Lupus is a chronic inflammatory condition that can affect your skin, joints, nervous system, lungs and several other organs in the body.

It's all down to those Omega-3 fatty acids that we hear so much about these days -- in Lupus patients, recent studies found that those who received fish oil supplements showed less cell-damaging free radicals and had improved blood vessel functioning.

But whether you have been diagnosed with Lupus or not, getting your Omega-3s is important, and can help you have a healthier life for years to come.
