Information on the Medical Benefits of Fish Oil
Hi !!!
I think below article will be of interest.
"Just about anyone suffering from stiff and aching joints has wished for magical oil to make those bones move more smoothly. Some have even tried rubbing sore joints with motor oil or spraying them with WD-40.
Smearing yourself with these messy metal lubricants won’t do a thing for your arthritis. But you may be surprised to learn that putting the right kind of oils inside your body could help with the aches and pains.
Out of all the choices, four oils rise to the top. There’s strong evidence that fish oil supplements with omega-3 fatty acids can ease rheumatoid arthritis (RA) symptoms, help prevent Raynaud’s syndrome spasms and possibly relieve some lupus symptoms. Both borage seed and evening primrose seed oils have been shown to ease RA inflammation, and flaxseed oil may be also helpful. Readily available, these oils appear not to have serious side effects when taken as directed."
