Orlando, FL -- (SBWire) -- 08/19/2016 --Athletes are more physically active, and this means their nutritional needs are higher than the general population. They need to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle, and take nutritional supplements to improve their overall health. There are many supplements available nowadays, and one of the most popular is omega-3 fish oil.

Fish oil is believed to be beneficial for athletes. Fish oil contains the healthy fat called omega-3 fats, which are essential for brain and body functioning. It is one of the best supplements believed to be helpful for increasing the endurance, speed, and power of athletes. It is also believed to help alter body composition or weight.

"While omega-3 fats can be obtained through fish consumption, they are popularly used through supplementation," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.

Imbalance in the ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 fats inside the body is closely associated with the development of inflammation. According to experts, increased consumption of omega-3 fats, particularly DHA and EPA, can significantly help reverse this inflammatory state.

Omega-3 fats cannot be naturally produced by the body, and thus it needs to be consumed through food or supplementation. These fats are believed to have performance-enhancing effects such as increase in muscle growth and an improvement in strength and physical performance. These healthy fats are also believed to help decrease exercise-induced damage in the muscle and delayed-onset muscle soreness.

Fish oil is also popularized by its ability to fight the negative immune effects of intensive training. It can potentially help strengthen bones as well as improve heart, cognitive and lung functioning. Research studies have revealed some evidences to support the performance-enhancing benefits of fish oil.

According to research, fish oil has the potential to enhance the anabolic effect of exercise. The researchers suggest that when omega-3 fats are combined with anabolic stimulus such as insulin, protein, or physical activity, there could be an improvement in protein metabolism.

In another scientific review, it was also revealed that the combination of omega-3 fats and anabolic stimulus can improve lean body mass quality and function. It is believed that omega-3 fats can improve the protein metabolism's insulin-sensitive aspects. Nine health study participants were given fish oil supplementation for eight weeks, and it was found that there was an increase in the muscle cell size as well as muscle protein concentration.

Today, there are many fish oil supplements available in the market, and they can be purchased from local health stores or online. Fish oil supplementation is more popular than eating fish mainly because it provides high concentration of omega-3 fats and has little to no environmental pollutants (amazon.com/omega-3-fatty-acids/dp/B00O8NS20K).
