Many people really don't comprehend that their human body has it's very own anti-inflammatory chemical substances that it employs to regulate inflammation. This self contained process that the human body employs to curb inflammation is nourished by an essential nutrient-- omega 3 fatty acid . ( Most medical doctors appear to have forgotten this fact). If omega 3 fats are deficient in the food we eat, which they are for all Westerners then your body will not have the raw material that it requires to create it's own anti-inflammatory substances. Consequently inflammed joints continue to be inflammed and painful. On the other hand when you provide these essential omega 3 fats by consuming a fish oil supplement, the human body commences making it's own anti-inflammatory substances anew and the pain and inflammation go away.
