  •  
    A diet deficient in omega 3 fats is known to cause impaired vision both in animals and people. That is because omega 3 fats are essential for the functioning of the nerve tissues in the brain and since the retina is an extension of the brain, it goes without saying that a deficiency of omega 3 fatty acids will have an effect in the way we see things.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids Prevent Medical Complications Of Obesity, Study Suggests - 0 views

  •  
    ScienceDaily (Feb. 12, 2009) - According to a recent study, diets rich in omega-3 fatty acids protect the liver from damage caused by obesity and the insulin resistance it provokes. This research should give doctors and nutritionists valuable information when recommending and formulating weight-loss diets and help explain why some obese patients are more likely to suffer some complications associated with obesity. Omega-3 fatty acids can be found in canola oil and fish.
