Kidney disease prevention with fish oil

There are many benefits to including fish in your regular diet. Some of my colleague hates fish, so much so that they would give it a pass for other more oily food stuffs such as fried chickens. Fish meat provides important nutrients such as Omega 3 fatty acids that help to keep our heart healthy and strong.

Diabetes can leads to kidney failure. As a matter of fact a third of people with diabetes may get chronic kidney disease. Recent studies by British researches indicate that people with diabetes are less likely to contract kidney disease if they include fish in their diet versus those who don’t.

Fish oil contains anti inflammatory properties due to the higher concentration of Eicosapentaenoic Acid, better known as EPA. Thus if it is not convenient for you to include fish in your daily diet, just go ahead to take daily doses of fish oil or in the form of tablet or liquid.

So do yourself a favour, get yourself a bottle of cod liver oil for the price of less than a burger Mac meal and stay healthy.
