Omega-3s are natural anti-inflammatories. Unlike the fats in meat or fryer grease that encourage inflammation, omega-3s act like aspirin or ibuprofen, cooling inflammation. These healthful oils also maintain the fluidity of cell membranes, improving blood flow. In addition, omega-3s help regulate mood. When people run low on omega-3s, they have a tendency toward depression.--Neal Barnard, M.D. Vegetarian Times January 2009
sources of Omega-3s:
Flaxseed, fish, canola oil, walnut halves
