Regular consumption of foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids is once again
associated with heart health — this time in lowering the risk of death
by heart attack, says new research published in JAMA Internal Medicine.
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential (meaning our bodies cannot make them)
and important for certain bodily functions including blood clotting,
lowering triglycerides, reducing the risk of heart attack and stroke,
improving blood pressure and regulating an abnormal heart beat.
It has been advised for some time to adopt a diet providing good sources of omega-3s, particularly for heart health.
