    Miracle Fatty Acid Adds Years to Your Life

    Omega-3s may determine how long you’ll live – and it’s not just because they’re good for your heart.

    Omega-3s may now have a profound effect on anti-aging by slowing down the shortening of telomeres.

    What are telomeres? They’re protective tips that cap the ends of your DNA. Each time your cells divide, your telomeres get shorter. When your telomeres run down, cell division stops, and your life ends.

    While this may sound like a clip from a science fiction movie, it’s real. And it’s about to change the world of medicine. Everything you’ve been told about aging is about to be transformed by this new science.

    You may not have heard about this new breakthrough yet. That doesn’t surprise me.

    If You’re Eating this Fish You May as Well Eat a Doughnut

    Last weekend, my sister came into town out of the blue, and we went out to dinner to celebrate. She glanced at the menu and then put it down, saying, “I gotta eat healthy when I’m with you. I’ll have the tilapia.”

    Most people are shocked when they hear the truth about tilapia. After all, it’s fish. It’s supposed to be good for you. The power of the omega-3s in fish is all over the news. Salmon is still the most popular, but tilapia is gaining on it because it has a mild taste and it’s inexpensive.
