WHAT IS OMEGA-3?

Omega-3 oil or fish oil as it is often called, are oils commonly gotten from plants and marine life, they contain omega-3 fatty acids, and many contain vitamins A and D.

Omega-3 is PRESENT throughout the body, especially in the brain, retina, and s***m cells. THE BODY CANNOT PRODUCE OMEGA-3 ON ITS OWN, however, so people need to obtain it from DIETARY SOURCES and SUPPLEMENTS.

Guidelines from the World Heart Federation (WHF) RECOMMENDS eating fish as part of a heart-healthy diet. Indeed, having a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids may help PREVENT heart disease, PROTECT brain and eye health, and CONTRIBUTE to fetal/pregnancy development.

HEALTH BENEFITS:

❤️ Heart and cardiovascular benefits
🐟 Triglyceride levels. 🐟 Cholesterol
🐟 High blood pressure
👀 Vision loss and eye health
🐟 Epilepsy
👶 Healthy fetal development
This is one reason that experts recommend consuming oily fish during pregnancy.

P.S However, it is important to AVOID eating fish with high levels of MERCURY, such as shark and king mackerel, during this time of PREGNANCY.

FOOD SOURCES:
🐟 Animal-based sources of omega-3 include:
Oily fish, such as sardines, tuna, and salmon, catfish.
Other seafood, such as oysters and shrimp.
Eggs, especially those fortified with omega-3.

1. They are less likely to engage in physical activities.

2. Less likely to eat five servings of fruits and vegetables a day.

3. More likely to eat "wrong" foods.

4. Likely living somewhere pretty far away from a really good market/supermarket.

5. They are surrounded daily by overweight people.

WHAT YOU EAT IN PRIVATE YOU WEAR IN PUBLIC

On a slow cozy Friday night as the stars were making haven in the sky.

Tinuke's world was going through a series of disasters like a tsunami and hurricane on a cold August rain while sailing on a boat in the middle of the sea.

She had just ended a 5years relationship where she thought was leading to the permanent site as the ship was sailing smoothly with no arguments or outright misunderstanding till that Friday night, after too many lame excuses from her "ex-man".

Now she has no one to cry to, except the cold bowls of ice cream to numb her tongue expecting it to seize the tears rolling down her chubby make-up blushing cheeks.

6months later she has made more friends with 8 fast-food joints around her (from her home to office and back) she visits them 3xs a week and that 3xs is like double of that with the kind of food, small chops, and snacks she orders and consumes in one sitting.

Now the business has a dinner event and she tried seeing if she could fit into that red dress she bought 6months ago with the precious stones tossed on them in a pattern so inviting you'd think you are in a trance.
..but the worst happened.

She couldn't fit in, making her end up splitting the dress's zip.

Oh! She was pi**ed, then she ordered another dress, paid extra for express delivery, and still ended up having her fat tummy at war with the cloth's fabrics.

Tinuke pi**ed decides to do something about it, but that will be after the party where she dressed herself to looking like 3 hamburgers for a tummy, 4 fat turkey laps for legs.

At this moment after Tinuke saw the events picture, it dawned on her that she needed to do something, lest no man will love her if she doesn't love herself enough to look sexy for herself.

Then she got to handle her heartbreak, watch what she eats, how she eats, and when she eats while working out 3days a week with her gym instructor.

WHAT TO DO IF YOUR DAD IS FAT...or...THIN

So from my perspective, if your relations/relatives or past generation are fat, you have a high tendency of getting fat yourself.

Do you believe this?

FAT (The Big)
Welcome to the new series on Fat.

This is a word we don't like to be described by.

Believe me, it is not sexy at all.

But, we'll get you feeling better while watching it.

FAT (The Bigger)

This topic has been of great concern to us all,
So much that studies have been held by some Nigerian researchers.

Four studies met the description out of the 75 studies reviewed.

They found out that individuals that were overweight ranged from 20.3%-35.1%, while obesity ranged from 8.1%-22.2%.

FAT (The Biggest)

Glad that we as Nigerians have a positive mindset, where we see most overweight people as "Big people/Wealthy people).

But there are problems hidden in between all those big man food when taken without regulations.
