Most Americans live stress-filled lives. As an attorney, I seldom have a day that is low stress. Just last week I was involved in a tension filled arbitration in St. Louis, Missouri in which the parties basically wanted to wage total warfare.
According to scientists at Toyama University in Japan, there is a strong link between Omega-3 deficiency and stress. Omega-3 (DHA) is found in cold-water fish and has been touted by researchers as a heart-healthy beneficial fat. Scientists have noted a link between low levels of DHA in the brain and people with violent tendencies. The Japanese researchers discovered that DHA controls hostility at times of mental stress.
The bottom line is that individuals should supplement with fish oil to combat stress.
