(Health-NewsWire.Net, July 06, 2015 ) Orlando, Florida -- Nowadays, millions of people from around the world are relying on dietary supplements. One of the most popular supplements is fish oil due to a wide variety of health benefits associated with its use. To take full advantage of its health benefits, people need to learn about how much of it they should consume.
Experts provide the weekly recommended intake of fish oil for consumers. This natural ingredient can be found in certain types of fish, and is believed to have many health benefits. While many people are using it, it turns out that there are those who consume an amount of fish oil that is lower or higher than recommended.
"Consuming fish oil can be very advantageous, but consumers should also take into account the importance of taking it properly or according to the recommended dose," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.
There are several reasons why fish oil is widely used today. Its use is associated with health benefits favorable to pregnant women, babies and individuals suffering from conditions such as cardiovascular disease and arthritis.
It is also believed to be an effective preventive measure against certain chronic illnesses. People can consume oily fish such as salmon, mackerel, trout, sardines, herring, tuna, swordfish and many others.. In addition to omega-3 fatty acids, seafood in general contains high levels of other vitamins and minerals such as zinc, iron and selenium.
According to experts, the amount of fish oil recommended every week is subject to the age and lifestyle of the consumer. For girls who are under the age of 16, 280 grams per week should be consumed, and 560 grams for boys of the same age. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant in the future, as well as breastfeeding women, should consume 280 grams per week. Boys and girls under the age of 16, and pregnant or breastfeeding women should avoid eating swordfish, shark and marlin. For individuals who have no intention of getting pregnant, 560 grams of fish oil per week may be consumed. For men, 560 grams can be taken.
Experts recommend that consumers be aware of the presence of a type of pollutant called dioxins in fish such as salmon. Dioxins are by-products that come from household fires and industrial processes. They can instead use fish oil supplements that are free from dioxins, heavy metals and other dangerous substances (www.amazon.com/Omega-Fish-Oil-Supplement-Softgels/dp/B00O8NS20K/).
