Melt away fat with fish oil

We know that taking fish oil supplements, which are loaded with Omega-3 fatty acids, is good for everything from improving heart health to fighting depression.

Well, now there’s another benefit: Fish oil can help you burn fat.

According to a recent study by Australian scientists, people who walked 45 minutes three days a week and took six grams of fish oil burned seven times more fat than those who just exercised.

Researchers suspect fish oil may increase the enzymes your body produces to burn fat.

It would take 12 ounces (four servings) of salmon to get that much fish oil a day, but supplements typically have a little more than a gram per pill.
