(Health-NewsWire.Net, July 29, 2015 ) Orlando, Florida -- Obesity has become an epidemic that is affecting many countries around the world. The condition is often due to the unhealthy diet and lifestyle practiced by people. The good news is that those who are trying to lose weight have a chance of becoming healthy again with the use of a natural ingredient.
Research identifies omega-3 fatty acids as a potential appetite suppressant. Omega-3s can be found in fish types such as trout, tuna, mackerel and salmon, as well as in plants and oils. People are beginning to see the importance of incorporating food items with omega-3 into their diets.
"Nowadays, there are also many individuals who use fish oil supplements to obtain the right amount of omega-3 fatty acids," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.
Omega-3s are considered to be essential fatty acids, and they cannot naturally be produced by the body. There are three types of omega-3s; one is EPA or eicosapentaenoic acid, the second is DHA or docosahexaenoic acid, and there is ALA or the alpha-linolenic acid. ALA is usually found in vegetable oils such as walnuts and flaxseed. Omega-3s are essential for cognitive function, and they are believed to be effective for reducing inflammation and the risk of diseases such as arthritis and heart disease.
According to research published in the journal Appetite, omega-3 fatty acids may have the ability to increase feelings of fullness. This can be very helpful for obese or overweight individuals. In a study, it was found that individuals who consumed high amounts of omega-3 fatty acids had reported reduced hunger levels after eating. Further research is still underway to determine if the appetite-regulating effects of omega-3s can lead to long-term weight loss.
The researchers in the American Journal of Physiology- Endocrinology and Metabolism, Hongqin Wang and colleagues, published a study that found increased consumption of omega-3s can reduce levels of leptin, a hormone that affects a person's appetite.
According to the study published in the journal Lipids by Jana Ruzickova and colleagues, omega-3 fatty acids such as EPA and DHA can potentially reduce the prevalence of obesity by preventing fat storage in the body. The two omega-3s have the potential to prevent the production and enlargement of fat cells.
There are many weight loss methods that are proven to work for many people, and they include following specific dietary and exercise programs. Overweight or obese individuals can also take advantage of fish oil supplements as the best ones available in the market contain the highest amounts of DHA and EPA (http://amazon.com/Omega-Fish-Oil-Supplement-Softgels/dp/B00O8NS20K/).
