Fish oil -- it possesses potent anti-inflammatory properties that affect your body in myriad ways. Fish oil may lower your blood pressure and cholesterol, decrease your risk for heart attacks and strokes, and diminish joint pain. It also improves the quality of the tears on your eyes. It makes your dry eyes feel better. To benefit, you need to ingest several portions of WILD-caught, oily fish every day. Or, you need to ingest 3-4,000 milligrams of capsuled fish oil daily. With a steady diet of fish oil, over months, your body will begin to enjoy its beneficial effects.

My son, Isaac, has been playing volleyball for years, working toward playing at a Division I men's volleyball program. He's made it! Isaac writes: "To everyone that believed in me, I’m excited to tell you I’ll be joining the Sharks at LIU in downtown Brooklyn. There are too many people to thank in one caption. But I will thank my momma for being crazy enough to believe in me and my dad for working hard in Alaska so I can afford to make my dreams come true. I hope I can make all of you proud wearing blue and gold. Go Sharks!"
