Fish oil supplement

I just recently taking fish oil supplement for over all healthy body.

The one above is the Cenovis fish oil-1000mg and it is odourless and it cost around Php 9.50 and the one in the lower is the generic brand of fish oil-995 mg which cost around Php 5.50 and it is more cheaper but it smells like a fish specially when I burp I can really smell the odor of the fish. I just only bought 3 capsule each just to try and I just consume one capsule of each brand for the last 2 days, I'm drinking this once a day at night. I bought this at Mercury drugstore and they don't have fish oil that are in the bottle.

This morning I went to a health store and asked if they have fish oil and luckily they have. Supposedly I just went there to ask how much is there fish oil capsule individually and if they have the one that are in bottle and it cost Php 4.00 each capsule and Php 1400.00 for the bottle  which contains 400 capsules. This brand is kirkland omega-3 fish oil concentrate 1000mg.

I just only bought 10 capsules because I can't afford the bottle, and I can say it's not odorless because I can smell its fishy odor.

I'm planning to buy one bottle to give it to my mom and dad but I think I need to wait for 2 weeks and cut Php 700/week of my allowance so that I can buy them.

What are the benefits of fish oil?
  1. Decrease the incidence of depression and anxiety
  2. Decrease Blood Pressure
  3. Reduce the Stress response
  4. Assist in the treatment of psoriasis and dry skin
  5. Assist in decreasing your body’s insulin response to food
  6. Decrease whole body inflammation as marked by C-Reactive Protein
  7. Decrease Triglyceride levels
  8. Help with treating ADHD
  9. Assist in activating fat burning genes
  10. Assist in Muscle Protein Synthesis
Besides the overall health benefits, fish oil may also help improve lean body composition in a number of different ways.  What this means is that if you’re a guy with more than 15% body fat or a woman with more than 25% body fat, fish oil may help you lose fat faster while also helping to stabilize any blood sugar issues you may have.  In addition to helping you lose fat, fish oil may also help you put on muscle at a quicker rate.  While in its infancy, recent research has shown that supplementing with 3 grams of EPA and DHA per day helped increase muscle protein synthesis within the muscle cells, which may help you add more muscle.

Yoga: Relieving stress

          I just started yoga a week ago and I totally fell in love with it.  I added yoga in my morning exercise and every time I perform different poses like the inverted triangle its like tearing my skin specially in my legs and my sides because we are not flexible when our body was rest for a long hours or period.

          Aside from flexibility, there is also yoga for weight loss and yoga that helps relieves stress and this is the reason why I fell in love with yoga.

         It was a busy day for a student like me because it was our finals week and I need to finish all the requirements, that time I was copying three articles with three pages long (without summarizing) for my physics subject and I don't know what our professor was thinking letting  us copy paste an article hand to hand. Anyway, I was having a break from copy paste hand to hand combat and read some fitness magazine when I came across an article about yoga for relieving stress and I was thinking "why don't u try it?" so I downloaded yoga videos and did it for 15 minutes while doing the last pose which is corpse or death pose I feel so calm, relax and stress free.
     
          It was my first time doing yoga and it's not hard because I already have a flexible body but not flexible as a gymnast and hopefully through yoga I will enhance my flexibility.
