It is well known that fish oil is needed for our body. Fish oil contains polyunsaturated fat called Omega 3 fatty acids that our body needs. Unfortunately our body does not produce Omega 3 fatty acids and thus has to rely on outside source. Well there are two ways to ensure your body received sufficient fish oil or to be more specific the Omega 3 fatty acids. Firstly, you can eat lots of fish or secondly take it in the pill/tablet form. Well, I guess you can do both if you want.
I have the habit of popping in fish oil capsules whenever I feel that my body is weakening. When my nose starts to “run” or when I feels lethargic then I know my body immune system is low and needs to be strengthen. That is the time I ensure I take all the vitamins, nutrients and fish oil.
For those who want to know about fish oil benefits for the body, here are some of it:
- Regulating the body’s cholesterol levels

On the light note, when someone says that “John sounds fishy”, does that mean that John talks like a fish. Why fish is connected to something negative when is bring good health to our body? Anyway, if you smells fishy, don’t come near me.
