A new study suggests elevated omega-3s, especially DHA, makes for stronger and healthier bones. The short-chain fatty acids known as DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) have been very popular among health and fitness experts for the past few decades. These two fatty acids are found most commonly in omega-3 supplements and have been associated with health benefits ranging from a decreased risk for cardiovascular health to help for those with behavior and/or mood conditions.

Now, researchers from Purdue University, Indiana University School of Medicine, Korea Maritime University, and the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) would like to add to the list of omega-3 benefits: bone health. In particular, the scientists were more interested in DHA, saying that it “appear[ed] to be a vital constituent of marrow.” However, the researchers were not able to support these same claims for EPA.

Yes I always take fish oil capsules, one every day, and I think that they have a very good effect on a lot of things. I take cod liver oil capsules which I think I have observed make the odd ache and pain better, the arthritis type pain as well as increasing flexibility. It is a very good habit to get into and so of course is eating fish itself regularly.
