Beautiful Skin & Fish Oil

What is DHA fish oil?  How can it help restore beautiful skin?  Answers follow.

DHA is a specific omega-3 fatty acid known as Docosahexaenoic acid. 

The three letter abbreviation is easier to remember.  All of the omega-3s have a similar abbreviation.  For example, EPA is Eicosapentaenoic acid.

The omega-3 content of fish oils vary, tremendously.  Most of them contain mostly EPA, which is considered important to human health, but Docosahexaenoic acid is considered much more important.

Why is it being recommended for beautiful skin?

There are a several reasons.  Number one, the first symptom of fatty acid deficiency in the diet is dry skin.  Number two, improving moisture content improves firmness, which reduces wrinkles and other signs of age.  Number three; recent studies have shown that daily supplementation over the course of three months improves firmness by 10%.  Firmer skin is more beautiful skin.  That’s why the supplement is being recommended. 

How can I be sure that I am getting the best DHA fish oil  that money can buy?

Reading the label is one step, but there is some information that is not included on it.  Avoiding the discount brands is a good idea, because the manufacturers are obviously cutting corners, somewhere.  With all of the contaminants that are in our fish and our oceans, we cannot take the chance of buying from a manufacturer that might not be taking all of the necessary precautions. 

Whether you are interested in beautiful skin or some of the other benefits, you should find out if the manufacturer has a website.  And, when you visit that site, look for a COA or Certificate of Analysis from an independent laboratory.  The COA will list some of the most common contaminants and whether or not they were detected.

What are the other benefits of DHA fish oil?

The benefits seen in clinical and laboratory studies are too numerous to fully cover here. 

But, this list will give you an idea:

•Reduced pain and improvement in joint function
•Improved brain function—reduced feelings of depression and improvement in attention deficit disorders
•Improved visual acuity in infants
•Reduced blood triglyceride levels
•Improvement in “good” HDL cholesterol levels

•Reduced risk of asthma and allergies in children
•Reduced risk of premature birth in pregnant women
•Reduced risk of heart disease, heart attack and stroke

As you can see, having more beautiful skin is only one of many benefits and that is not even a complete list.  There is really no single supplement that provides as many benefits as DHA fish oil. Premium Fish Oil with DHA Omega3
