I am a firm believer in Omega 3 Fish oils for minimizing my Lupus symptoms, and, although I do take fish oil supplements daily, I also switched to a diet of mostly fish only about three years ago.

The results are fascinating -- and I saw (and am still seeing!) improvements in my quality of life, much less pain, inflammation and fatigue, which I find, are some of the most debilitating symptoms of lupus.

I went from being severely affected by Lupus in my daily life to actually joining the gym and noticing a huge difference in what I could do, simply by increasing my intake of fatty fish such as salmon, tuna, mackerel, lake trout, herring, sardines. ect. Learn more ...

Since I don't get outside much ( especially not in the summer sun) I was fortunate enough to find an online store where I order all of my fresh fish requirements, monthly. Whispy.com has now partnered with Mike Mondello's SeaBear Smokehouse in order to educate our Internet audience about Omega 3 fish oils and the great benefits and to provide the best fresh seafood in the US at special discount prices.

 I've also posted several of my favorite seafood recipes in our Community Recipe Collections.

There you will find free recipes such as Seared Ahi Tuna, Broiled Salmon Steaks With Mustard Sauce and Basil Pesto Baked Halibut, just to name a few!

If you are not able to get enough Omega 3 in your diet through fish alone, you may want to discuss the possibility of supplementing your diet with a quality Omega 3 soft gel with your local health care professional.

Over the past 40 years, an increasing number of physiological functions have been attributed to omega-3 fatty acids, including movement of calcium and other substances into and out of cells, relaxation and contraction of muscles, inhibition and promotion of clotting, regulation of secretion of substances that include digestive enzymes and hormones, control of fertility, cell division, and growth. In addition, omega-3 fatty acids may play an important role in brain development and function. Some evidence has suggested that omega-3 fatty acids in the diet may protect against heart attack and stroke, as well as certain inflammatory diseases like arthritis, lupus, and asthma. The major dietary sources of omega-3 fatty acids in the U.S. population are fish, fish oil, vegetable oils (principally canola and soybean), walnuts, wheat germ, and some dietary supplements.
