Omega-3s: A NEW health benefit REVEALED!
Omega-3s are one of the best, natural supplements you can take.
They’re good for your HEART… your BRAIN… even your JOINTS!
Omega-3s are like the Swiss Army Knife of total body supplements—they do it all!
But just when you thought omega-3s couldn’t get any better… new research has unlocked a NEW health benefit…
And it could IMPROVE your quality of life for years to come!
According to a new study led by researchers from the Fatty Acid Research Institute, a diet rich in oily fish (like salmon) or taking daily omega-3 fatty acid supplements can prevent…
HEARING LOSS!
Researchers who led the study examined over 500,000 people ranging from ages 40 to 69 over a three-year period. They specifically looked at levels of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)—the main component of omega 3s—and study participants’ self-reported hearing capabilities, including:
- Difficulty hearing
- Challenges understanding conversation amid background noise
- Use of a hearing aid
The study concluded that the folks who had the HIGHEST levels of DHA in their blood were LESS LIKELY to experience age-related hearing problems.
In fact, the data from the three-year study found that that people with higher DHA levels were 8-20% less likely to report hearing difficulties… and were also less likely to have issues following conversations in a noisy environment or require the use of hearing aids.
That’s a pretty darn good reason to take omega-3s!
Let’s be clear, this ISN’T a cure for hearing loss—but it can offer some protection.
Taking care of your hearing is something you should be proactive about—which is as simple as going for regular checkups with your doctor for standard hearing tests.
Unfortunately, more and more seniors are NEGLECTING getting checked for hearing loss—which means the signs of hearing loss could be developing without you knowing about it.
Staying on top of your hearing tests with your doctor… and adding a daily, high-quality omega-3 to your diet will give your hearing plenty of protection.
To the benefits of omega-3s,
