The American Heart Association recommended a supplement that I am behind 100%.
It's important that healthy people get adequate nutrients by eating a variety of foods in moderation. In addition to an 81Mg Aspirin, one supplement that I have been taking is for omega-3 fatty acid.
As someone who has had multiple bypass surgery, I am convinced that I can lower my probability of more cardiovascular disease and/or lower my risk factors by taking vitamin or mineral supplements.
I know that eating more fish has been associated with decreased risk of heart disease. The American Heart Association recommends that patients without documented heart disease eat a variety of fish, that contain omega 3, at least twice a week. Examples of these types of fish include salmon, herring and trout.
Those with documented heart disease should consume about 1 gram of omega-3 fatty acids, preferably from fish, but my doctor said supplements could also be considered.
Since my triglycerides, or blood fats were on the high side I take 2 or 3 capsules of fish oil a day. I read that the Japanese average of over 3000 mg of fish oil per day, and their incidence of heart problems is way lower than the rest of the world.
Since I am not overly fond of herring and I can't always get salmon or trout, I rely on supplementation to keep my heart healthy.
Because I am also on a tighter budget these days I found an online store that has a coupon deal. If you go here you can get 5% off your order when you check out by entering the code vip5off.
