Fitness Tip Omega 3 for CRP Omega-3 supplements can reduce blood levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) as much as statin medications. CRP is a marker for inflammation and a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Researchers from the University of California, Davis and the U.S. Department of Agriculture studied 34 middle-aged men with elevated blood triglyceride levels. Half took three grams a day of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), an omega-3 fatty acid; the other half got olive oil as a placebo. After 90 days, those taking DHA saw their CRP levels drop by 15% - almost as much as the 15% to 25% seen with statins.

Get lots of dark green veggies like broccoli, spinach, romaine lettuce and collard greens. Pick plenty of orange veggies like carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin and butternut squash. Eat more dry beans and peas such as pinto beans, kidney beans, split peas and lentils. Mix it up even more with favorites like tomatoes, potatoes and corn and less familiar options like artichokes, eggplant and parsnips.
Wellness Tidbit Brain Food Foods marketed to boost brain power in all age groups, from infancy to senior citizens, are all the rage. Ingredients such as omega-3 fatty acids star in "brain" foods like nutrition bars, juice and cereals. Though emerging evidence does tell us about the power of various nutrients to promote cognitive health, beware of overly optimistic claims for some of these products.
Food Fixes • Cilantro acts as a natural diuretic. This herb also aids digestion and prevents nausea. Just chop it up and sprinklet it on top of your salad. • Many smoothies contain added sugar in addition to the sugar naturally in fruit, juice, or yogurt. Ask that your smoothie be prepared without added sugar: the fruit is naturally sweet. • Start your day with veggies – and all the nutrients they provide. Whip up an omelet or scrambled eggs with chopped fresh spinach, tomatoes, peppers or any favorite vibrant colored veggie.
