Get better sleep!
Good sleep is one of the foundations of optimal health since sleep deprivation has been linked to many diseases, including obesity, diabetes, and depression. Low levels of omega-3 fatty acids have also been associated with sleep problems in children and obstructive sleep apnea in adults. Studies in both children and adults also suggest that supplementing with omega-3 may improve certain aspects of sleep and could protect against sleep disturbances.And, in some animal studies, low levels of DHA are linked to lower levels of the hormone melatonin, which helps you fall asleep, but further research is needed.
Try out this recipe to get a good dose of those sleep-saving omegas!
