Omega-3 fatty acids

Present in fish, soybean and canola oil, wheat germ and walnuts, Omega-3 fatty acids supplements can be taken in the form of oils or capsules. They work to lower triglyceride levels without affecting blood glucose control, HDL cholesterol or total cholesterol in diabetics. They are also anti-inflammatory, improve blood circulation, lower blood pressure and inhibit heart attack and stroke. Fish oil is also an efficient blood thinner.
