Omega-3 Fats Can Potentially Reduce Risk of Peri-Menopausal Symptoms Such as Heart Disease

 

Orlando, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/20/2016 -- Today, a myriad of medical conditions starts to appear as people age. The good news is many of these ailments are preventable through healthy diet and lifestyle. The use of fish oil supplements is also associated with a range of health benefits including those that are favorable to individuals in the peri-menopausal stage.

Omega-3 fats can potentially reduce the risk of peri-menopusal symptoms such as heart disease. These healthy fats can be obtained from the use of fish oil supplements or consumption of fish such as tuna, herring, halibut, and sardines.

"Today, an increasing number of people are using fish oil supplements to improve their protection against a variety of conditions," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.

According to the American Heart Association, women can lower their risk of peri-menopausal symptoms such as heart disease by increasing their intake of omega-3 fats. The recommended intake is a minimum of two servings of fish oil per week. Aging causes a reduction in the body's ability to produce estrogen.

While women still have periods during the peri-menopausal stage, their bodies produce less estrogen. It can take four to five years for this stage to run before a woman reaches menopause. Estrogen level reduction often leads to a range of symptoms, and it includes difficulty sleeping, hot flashes, and mood swings. The periods can also be irregular, very light, or heavy. Experts recommend that women make dietary and lifestyle changes to improve their condition.

Omega-3 fats are believed to work by reducing levels of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) cholesterol, which is also known as bad cholesterol. These healthy fats are essential for body and brain functioning, and they are popularly believed to reduce blood vessel inflammation as well as the risk of stroke. Estrogen protects women from heart disease and heart attack. Experts believe that increased intake of omega-3 fats can be very helpful for improving their immunity against these diseases.

Women who undergo the peri-menopausal stage usually suffer from a myriad of conditions, which can reduce the quality of their life. The good news is that natural alternatives, such as fish oil, can potentially provide them the solutions they are looking for. Omega-3 fats contain anti-inflammatory properties that are generally good for overall health.

Since consumption of fish just to obtain omega-3 fats has been associated with risks such as mercury and environmental pollutants, more and more people are turning to fish oil supplements. Many fish oil manufacturers use a process that eliminates these pollutants (http://amazon.com/Omega-Fish-Oil-Supplement-Softgels/dp/B00O8NS20K/).
