Live Younger Now!

“Omega-3 fatty acids from fish may help keep cells young.  Scientists measured the blood levels of these healthy fats in study participants, all of whom had heart disease, as well the length of telomeres in their white blood cells.  Telomeres are pieces of DNA that protect the ends of chromosomes and tend to shorten with age; recent findings suggest that longer telemeres mean healthier people.  Over five years, people who started out with the most omega-3s had the slowest rate of chromosome shrinkage.  More research is needed to confirm the link and explain how the fish fat can protect cells.” Source: Journal of the American Medical Association, Jan. 20, 2010 – click here for more information about omega-3 fatty acids.
