Puzzles are really good for your brain, and so is Omega-3 Fish Oil.
You can stand a chance to win a Vitaforce hamper worth over R1,000 which includes their Omega-3 supplement, Calcium, Nutri-B Energy, and a few others!
First, 
a bit more about Omega-3 Fish Oil for those who want to know more (or just skip to the end if you don’t).
Fish oil provides a rich source of two important omega-3 fatty acids: EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid).
Omega-3 fatty acids are often considered to be the “anti-inflammatory” fatty acids, whereas omega-6- fatty acids in comparison are considered to be the more “pro-inflammatory” fatty acids.
We can’t make these omega-3 fatty acids in our bodies, so we need to get them from our diets. In fact, the World Health Organization (WHO) specifically recommends eating 1-2 portions of fatty fish per week in order to obtain these healthy fats.
However, most people don’t eat much fatty fish and omega-3 fatty acids are fairly hard to come by from any other food source.
Furthermore, our modern “Western Diets” are very rich in the more pro-inflammatory omega-6 fatty acids from processed foods and vegetable oils. We should ideally have a 1:1 ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids, but the average ratio is currently around 1:15 or worse.
According to Precision Nutrition, “NIH researchers have said that the billions we spend on anti-inflammatory drugs such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and acetaminophen is money spent to undo the effects of too much omega-6 fat in the diet.”
Therefore, fish oil or omega-3 supplements are a very useful, convenient, and affordable way to obtain more omega-3 fatty acids in our diet.
