Ep33: The Great Omega-3 Fatty Acid Part 2: Healthy Heart

It Is Better To Know

This episode is a continuation of the omega-3 saga with a focus on the benefits of fish oil on heart health. The two most common omega-3 fatty acids are DHA and EPA. In food, you'll find this most abundantly in oily fish! Learn what the evidence says so far about how omega-3 foods and supplements help cholesterol levels and blood pressure. Get the verdict on whether it helps with primary or secondary prevention of cardiovascular events like stroke and heart attack! Okay, we have a joke for you too: you can tune a guitar, but you can't TUNA fish -- unless, of course, you play BASS! Fun fact: I believe this joke was used in an episode of the English dub of Dragon Ball Z by a character named Tien Shinhan.
