Most people really don't realize that the body possesses it's own anti-inflammatory chemicals that it uses to control inflammation. This on board system that our body uses to suppress inflammation is sustained by a vital nutrient-- omega 3 . (Many medical doctors seem to have forgotten this truth). If the essential omega 3 fats are deficient in the food we eat, which is the case for all Westerners then the body does not have the raw material that it requires to produce it's own anti-inflammatory chemicals. As a result inflammed articulations remain inflammed and painful. On the other hand when you replenish these vital omega 3's by using a fish oil product, the body begins producing it's own anti-inflammatory compounds once again and the joint pain and inflammation resolve.
