Research has shown that Omega 3 fish oils have a beneficial effect for arthritis sufferers because it is capable of reducing inflammation, swelling and pain. Omega 3 is just one of the EFA (essential fatty acids) which is contained in herring, salmon, mackerel and tuna. One word of warning is that as these species are at the top of the food chain, they are quite likely to contain toxic substances. You can’t win, can you? To overcome this problem many people buy and use fish oil supplements. When buying these, you should check that the label says ‘molecularly distilled’ – this means that they are free of mercury. Walnut, soybean and wheat germ oil also are high in omega-3 and can be used for food and cooking or as supplements. Several studies suggest that diets and/or supplements rich in omega-3 fatty acids lower blood pressure significantly in people with hypertension. Studies of heart attack survivors have found that daily omega-3 fatty acid supplements dramatically reduce the risk of death, subsequent heart attacks, and stroke.

Arthritis, or joint inflammation, affects millions of people. Arthritis pain typically is a result of the actual inflammation of the joint or joints and the synovial tissue layer. The synovial tissue is the soft tissue that lines the joints of the body. Arthritis can cause strain on the ligaments, sinews, organs and muscles as well as contributing to fatigue. One or more of these symptoms can worsen the arthritic pain that is already present.
