(Health-NewsWire.Net, April 18, 2015 ) Calgary, AB -- According to the American Lung Association, smoking harms nearly every organ in the body, and is a main cause of lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It is also a cause of coronary heart disease, stroke and a host of other cancers and diseases. Nutriden, a privately held Nutraceuticals company, wants everyone to know that Omega 3 fatty acids can help those who want to quit this unhealthy habit.
Omega-3 fatty acid supplements can not only help smokers with side effects when they are trying to quit smoking, but Omega 3 fish oil can also help smokers quit the habit, according to research. This research is imperative because cigarette smoking is known to reduce the levels of essential fatty acids in the brain, especially that of omega-3. Without it, brain function would diminish because our bodies use omega 3 fatty acids to control blood clotting and building cell membranes in the brain, among many other important jobs.
Taking Omega 3 fatty acids found in fish oil reduces the craving for nicotine. The study conducted by Dr Sharon Rabinovitz Shenkar, of the University of Haifa, Israel, found that Omega 3 fatty acids reduced smoking consumption by 11 percent over the second group. Smokers who were given omega-3 capsules every day for a month cut their cigarette consumption by compared to those given dummy pills. The study was controlled, meaning everything else given to the two groups was done at the same level. Yet, the group with the Omega-3 fatty acids through fish oil supplement quit using cigarettes by 11% more.
Rabinovitz Shenkar stated "The substances and medications used currently to help people reduce and quit smoking are not very effective and cause adverse effects that are not easy to cope with. The findings of this study indicated that omega-3 is an inexpensive and easily available dietary supplement with almost no side effects and reduces smoking significantly."
