Unless you’ve been living in a cave over the past few years, you have likely heard some of the "fuss" about Omega-3s and fish oil. The fact is that study after study has reported fish oil supplements to be essential in fat loss. Data from a University of Western Ontario study, shows that supplementing with fish oil increases lean body mass, burns fat, increases BMR by up to 400 calories a day and decreases inflammation…and that’s just for starters!
Omega-3 has also been shown to lower triglycerides, slow plaque growth and prevent blood clots.
Omega-3 also helps increase insulin sensitivity, combats metabolic syndrome like type II diabetes and improves psychological health, mood, anxiety and a whole lot more.
Even more importantly is that it has shown to be healthy for your heart. Because Omega-3s reduce plaque and the chance for blood clots (not to mention the fat burning, metabolism-boosting qualities) taking Omega-3 on a daily basis is something you should really consider.
We love the Core Omega 3 from Beachbody…and for just $21 a month ($16 for Beachbody Coaches), it’s really a "no-brainer." And that’s because it has the recommended ratio of EPA to DHA and the fact that their fish oil is all from the Atlantic, which is considered the purest fish oil available.
