Tablets offer peace of mind
PEOPLE are living longer than ever before. Retirement age has been pushed back and many of us can look forward to a good few years after that. And yet, while life expectancy has risen, so has the number of people who end up living what should be their golden years in pain and confusion.
Dementia is one of the leading concerns for older people and the problem is growing. The Alzheimer’s Society reports there are more than 850,000 dementia sufferers in the UK – and, astonishingly, more than 40,000 have young onset dementia, which affects those under the age of 65.
It’s reckoned that more than a million people in Britain will have dementia by 2025, destroying the later years that we have worked so hard to enjoy.
And yet we can do so much to help ourselves, particularly by keeping our brains active.
That involves keeping ourselves mentally agile, but also by keeping the brain in good working order.
Omega- 3 fatty acids are highly concentrated in the brain and scientists believe them to be important for both memory and performance, along with directing our behaviour.
One of the good type of fats, they can help lower the risk of dementia, as well as heart disease and depression.
They’re not something the body makes for itself – they have to be found in food or dietary supplements. But given that omega- 3 is largely contained in fish ( notably calamari) and to a certain extent in some nuts and seeds, it’s not easy to treat your brain to the amount it needs. The best way to ensure that you get the recommended daily intake is to use a dietary supplement. And if you’re going to do that, you should go for the gold standard – Calamari Gold.
The capsules from nutrition expert Bioglan contain extracts from the finest variety of calamari, high in omega- 3 DHA ( docosahexaenoic acid), along with EPA ( eicosapentaenoic acid) fatty acids. Bioglan Calamari Gold’s 500mg capsules have more DHA than standard 500mg fish and cod liver oil capsules combined.
They are three times more potent
