- Doctor Furlan explains what are omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids.
She explains that our body does not produce our own omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids and therefore, we need to acquire them by diet or supplements.
The main sources of omega 3 are cold water fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, tuna, herring and sardines. These are available as "fish oils" in pharmacies or health food stores.
There is also some omega 3 in shrimps, oysters and lobster.
Omega 3 is anti-inflammatory, and omega-6 is pro-inflammatory.

🖐🏻 NEW --> There is some new evidence suggesting there may be a dose-related risk of atrial fibrillation with omega-3 fatty acid intake. ⛔⛔⛔At a dose of 4.0 g/d, there was a highly statistically significant increase in risk (nearly a doubling).
⛔⛔With an intermediate dose of 1.8 g/d, the increase in risk did not achieve statistical significance
⛔ With a standard daily dose of 840 mg/d, there was no apparent increase in risk (although the data were consistent with as much as a 24% increase in risk).
Patients who choose to take omega-3 fatty acids, especially in high doses, should be informed of the risk of atrial fibrillation and followed up for the possible development of this common and potentially hazardous arrhythmia.

THX A TON AND STAY BLESSED DOCTOR
Thank you for this. Maybe I wasn't imagining my heart doing such strange things after all!
My current understanding is that atrial fibrillation is caused by a stretching of the left atrium. This is alleged to be caused by high blood pressure but it makes sense that certain oils might make the atrium more pliable and hence stretchier. Usually things that make the atrium softer can also make the blood vessels soften which reduces the stretching of the atrium but may not always soften the vessels as much as the atrium. This could be a situation that produces Afib when the right amount of omega-3s are introduced to the system as the atrium stretched more than the vessels causing the atrium to absorb the shock of the heart beat.
Dear doctor, my kid is 17 and is having SLE disease. Her feet souls are most of the time in pain and she often faces difficulty in walking.

Dr Furlan, I've been watching your videos, and am so grateful for the information and advice you share. Like you, my Dad a pharmacist, would always encourage us to have a balanced diet to get our vitamins naturally. We'd take a B-Complex multivitamin once in a while. Could you highlight the benefits of Vitamin B, please. Please continue with your good work! Thank you!
You are very welcome Joyce. I'll do a future video on Vitamin B12 in the future. It is in my list already.

You’ve more than likely saved my life. You get it. You would be shocked on how drs are not aware of chronic pain. It is a thing. It drives you crazy. I have a high tolerance to pain. I walked around for 16 days with bone broke and pushed my plates out of arm. I thought it was scar tissue. But my back is so bad it’s 24 hrs or if at any time I’m up I can’t walk without holding onto something. It’s awful
Thank you Tracy!
Thank you Andrea

Hi Dr. Andrea Furlan, looks like almost each and every one of your videos/presentation has very much in common with the medications I take. Omega -3 for example. I didn't know the risk involves with this. However, I lower the bad cholesterol considerably. Could you also explain the interactions with some other medications as well? Great presentations!

Thanks so much for all your information - again! I have had to discover alternative treatments in place of narcotics for my Chronic Pain. The only pain meds I'm on is Topamax for Migraine prevention and "Cymbalta" for Fibromyalgia pain.
I have done all my own research & had read that Omega 3 would helpful. It was a matter of finding the correct dose & dosage for me. I realize it basically "works" on the blood vessels yet I can't deny it does keep the inflammation down in my muscles & thus controls pain (along with the other combined Supplements that I have discovered). I do have my Alpha Stim Machine that I was just able to replace this past March after not having one for 5 years.)

Thanks for the information
So nice of you

Dr. Furlan, thank you for your informative videos. I'm anemic and take B-12 shots once a month, Folic acid, and prescribed iron pills.
I also have MS and have developed severe inflammation in my lower spine which causes my back muscles to tense up when walking and standing to the point I can't walk on treadmill anymore and lay in bed longer. I also have fatigue which comes with the MS but is mainly now from the pain with the inflammation.
I understand sugars are bad for inflammation and make it worse. Could you discuss this. Thank you and God bless you, continued prayers for our Heavenly Father's wisdom and insight for you 🙏
Thank you for taking the time to write this comment. I don't have the ability to give medical advice here because I am not able to get all the details that I need and most importantly, to examine you. Please talk to your doctor. Consider subscribing to this channel.
Have you tried mega doses of Vitamin D ? I think you should look into that. I’m talking taking 50,000 ius. And no it’s not Toxic at that level.
@@DrAndreaFurlan hello dok. Im always watching you video. I have a lot of pain like cronic pain because all my joint and muscle are pain i been notice once i eat to much dairy and egg orange the pain like worse. I cant sleep to my pain shoulder feet neck and behind my ears elbow also.
@@Ethan-xf4or km
Thank you for sharing. I have the same problem with the muscles around the spine and it's so painful. I want to try Omega 3 now. What is helping you for the spine pain? Im taking B12, B1 and B6 and this combination is a miracle. B12 sometimes is not enough.
I’m glad I watched this. My cardiologist took me off of fish oil tablets. I was already talking medication to reduce cholesterol. He said I wasn’t getting any benefit from fish oil tablets
Capsules holder contain palm oil which is inflammatory
His opinion only.
Ver informative,thanks!
You're welcome!
Very good informations.
What a Grace you have....💕
So nice of you
Doutora, can you make a video about acute back pain? I am pregnant and I started with upper back pain, but I think it is related to muscle contraction after training. 4 days now and I am suffering with it :(
Sorry to hear Raquel. I will think about that. I am a chronic pain specialist.

Lastly the best option is "balanced diet" with life style modification and plenty of drinking safe water.
