omega 3

I've decided to try something new. After a friend mentioned that she was giving her daughter a regular dose of omega 3 supplements to balance her moods, I decided to check it out and did some reading up on the subject. Since it would appear that we all need to add more omega 3s to our diet to balance out the excess of omega 6s, and much of the literature did indeed state that they had been shown to improve mood imbalances, sleep issues, upper respiratory congestion and skin problems, I went out and bought some flax seed, some fish oil supplements, and a whole whack of seafood. I've been grinding the flax seed and adding it to both Kate's and my yogurt concoction that we both like in the mornings, and to any sauces etc that I make for dinners, plus we've been eating fish for most of our meals now instead of only once or twice a week.
While it's only been a couple weeks, I have noticed that I am sleeping better, quite a bit better actually. Which may in part be because Kate seems to be sleeping much better. As for the moods, well, the jury is definitely still out on that one. I'll have to give it more time. But regardless I do intend to try to keep up the omega 3s with everyone, since they are supposed to help with brain functions - smart food, right? If nothing else we might end up being super intelligent angry people.
