Omega 3's, Dr. OZ, staying home thinking shoot is there an exit route somewhere cuz I could sure use a latte

Loads of fun with vomit up to my knees, fatigue, a husband who is sick and every chance he gets wants to make sure I understand how sick he is. OK I get it. The Lil'princess was sicker than a dog. It was like the  sequel of Linda Blair in the exorcist. Projectile vomit everywhere. Crying.  Poor thing....

I slept on the floor next to her bed and this ol' body of mine was cursing me out by the time it was morning. Exhausted but as you moms know , life must go on. Chores to be done. Food preparation. Chores and more Chores. HEY what happened to my MAID! I was certain that by this time in my life I would definitely have a MAID in place because HELLO in my other life I was certainly rich and this chores thing is like ..um getting on my nerves.


WELL.. I guess in the meantime I am going to have to suck it up and get to it! Pronto~!

I just wanted to make it very clear that I AM NOT ENJOYING it one bit!~ :{

Anyway, since I stayed home I was able to watch Dr. OZ and again he let me know ALL the things I am doing to ruin my health YET AGAIN! Thank you very much Dr!.......

The interesting thing discussed today was OMEGA 3's and OMEGA 6's. TOTALLY didn't know the difference between the two. I just figured they were all good. NOPE.. OMEGA 6's are usually obtained in excess and OMEGA 3's are definitely deficient in most people. WHAT is the big deal? right! Well come to find out that if there is not a good balance of the two it may cause an onset of certain diseases or symptoms.

Check out these facts I found here:

Though the body needs omega 3 fatty acids, it doesn't make them. So you must get them from foods including fish, some plants or nut oils, the University of Maryland Medical Center says.


The center says there's evidence that omega 3s may help people with these health conditions, or people at greater risk of acquiring them:

High cholesterol.

High blood pressure.

Heart disease and stroke.

Cancer of the colon, breast or prostate.

Diabetes.

Rheumatoid arthritis.

Lupus.

Osteoporosis.

Mental health conditions such as depression, bipolar disorder or schizophrenia.

Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

Macular degeneration of the eye.


SOOO I headed over to Safeway and bought a huge bottle of the stuff, opened it up, took out a pill and they looked like horse pills! They were huge!  They certainly didn't say although you are trying to save your life by being proactive and taking these horse pills. HOWEVER; you could choke to death trying to swallow this sucker! LOL..... After a glass and half of water the OMEGA 3's were in my system ready to fight.

The family is doing great as of 3 today... so thanks for asking.......

Until tomorrow,
G
