 Numerous studies have revealed that omega-3s help
to:
- Reduce joint
swelling and tenderness
- Improve grip strength
- Decrease anti-inflammatory
drug use, such as over-the-counter and prescription
non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
Other
Inflammatory Disorders
Recent research
suggests that diets rich in omega-3 fatty acids
(and low in omega-6 fatty acids) may help people
reduce inflammation.
In fact,
several laboratory studies have already confirmed
that omega-3s decrease inflammation and reduce
the activity of the enzymes that break down cartilage.
