Fish oil

Fish oil...

Fish oil is famous for two things - not particularly pleasant taste and exceptional benefits for the human body. We think the vast majority of the inhabitants of our latitudes tried a healing product to taste or took fish oil as a natural medicine, so they know what the benefits of fish oil are.

People began to use the healing properties of fish oil relatively recently, but fish has always been appreciated and considered a medicinal food. In the Middle Ages, many diseases were treated with fish. For example, the liver of Nalim fish was used to cure the eyesore, and Lim fish helped with gout or fever.

Therefore, it is not surprising that people began to think about ways to preserve a useful product. As a result, the fish began not only to dry and dry, but also to preserve, freeze or get fat from the fish. Fish oil began to be produced on an industrial scale during the time of the Russian Empire. Much earlier than the factory method, the method of obtaining fish oil by the inhabitants of the Kola Peninsula was known.

Composition of fish oil

The main ingredient in fish oil is cod liver, which pomora was folded into special barrels and left for a couple of days. Over time, the natural process of tissue decay began, and fat began to flow outside, where it was collected in containers.

Northern peoples have long learned to apply the exceptional properties of fish oil and obtain it from fatty fish species, albeit in primitive ways. Much later, residents of the North were told about a new method for producing a product, when the liver was heated in a special boiler and even filters were used to clean the final product. However, the change in the drawing process did not affect the composition of fish oil. And yet, what is the most invaluable benefit of fish oil for humans?

The benefits of fish oil

We think that for a start it is worth looking closely at the composition of the product, which includes vitamins A and D. Moreover, the content of these useful substances is simply off scale. Perhaps there are not many foods in nature that can compare with fish oil in terms of saturated fatty acids Omega-3 and Omega-

6. Oleic and palmitic acids are also present in fish oil. Fatty acids also benefit the health of the human cardiovascular system.

Fish oil prevents cancer tumors of the mammary glands, protects against emphysema of the lungs. Fish oil is recommended for pregnant women. Fat helps children grow healthy and develop properly. Currently, fish oil in capsules is used in medical medicine. Such a product has all the useful qualities and at the same time does not have a characteristic unpleasant fatty taste, so children will take a vitamin substance with great pleasure.

Harm of fish oil

Unfortunately, in addition to extremely useful qualities, there is also the harm of fish oil, which can be expressed in the complication of the course of tuberculosis diseases, urolithiasis and cholelithiasis. People who suffer from thyroid diseases and stomach ulcers can be especially affected by fish oil, so they should completely exclude the product from the diet of their daily diet.

In addition to contraindications, there are special prescriptions for taking fish oil as a medicine: do not exceed the recommended dose, it is better not to use fish oil on a hungry stomach, otherwise get a severe upset stomach.
