Indigestion, irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel diseases...if
your belly always seems to be in an uproar, try munching 18 ounces of
fish weekly to ease your misery. Repeated studies show that the fatty
acids in fish, called EPA and DHA, can significantly reduce intestinal
inflammation, cramping and belly pain and, in some cases, provide
as much relief as corticosteroids and other prescription meds. "EPA
and DHA are powerful, natural, side effect-free anti-inflammatories,
that can dramatically improve the function of the entire
gastrointestinal tract," explains biological chemist Barry
Sears, Ph.D., president of the Inflammation Research
Foundation in Marblehead , MA . For best results, look
for oily fish like salmon, sardines, tuna, mackerel,
trout and herring.
