Calcium Supplements

If you are not able to get enough calcium from your food choices or you are at high risk for osteoporosis, you may need to take a calcium supplement.


Fish Oil Basics

Omega-3 fats are healthy fats with many benefits. Omega-3 fats can help lower your risk of heart disease and some cancers and may improve your immune system. Research is being done to see if omega-3 fats play a role in preventing dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, depression, asthma and rheumatoid arthritis. One of the best sources of omega-3 fats is fatty fish like salmon, trout and tuna. But some people do not enjoy eating fish and may benefit from a fish oil supplement.
