Omega3 Fish Oil


Omega3 fish oil plays an important role in not just our brain functions but also fat loss and muscle maintenance. In earlier years, our animals would feed on grass and plant based foods which would make our food sources be rich in Omega3. Unfortunately, now they are GRAIN fed (because it is cheaper for farmers.. because Grains are the devil) decreasing the our Omega3 content and increase Omega6. Although Omega6 should be apart of our diet, its is found much easier than Omega3's.

Benefits of Omega-3 fish oil:
Increases Lean body mass
Helps heart beat strong and healthy
Maintains elasticity in cardio tissue
Increases metabolism by up to 400Kcal/day
Reduces inflammation within muscle and connective tissue
Improves fat burning
Improves insulin efficiency
Contains antioxidants
Prevents excessive muscle breakdown

A good recommended dose of Omeg3 fish oil would be 1 tsp (5 x 1g capsules) per 20 kg of lean body weight or no less than 15-20g per day.
