Heart Healthy Omega 3 Fatty Acids
Research over the last recent years has suggested that a type of polysaturated fat known as Omega 3 fatty acids can help a variety of medical problems including cardiovascular disease, depression and asthma among others. Important Omega 3 Fatty Acids include eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexanoic acid (DHA) found in oily-cold water fish such as tuna, sardines and salmon. The American Heart Association recommends that you eat at least two or more servings of fish a week in order to reap the health benefits. Since sardines are high in protein and low in saturated fat, they are an excellence source for getting the Omega 3 fatty acids that your body needs.
What better way to increase your intake of omega 3 fatty acids then by eating La Sirena canned sardines and canned!
