#TipTuesday: Omega 3 Fatty Acids Helps Depression and Anxiety

#TipTuesday is a series Max Agency — one of the top Toronto talent agencies  — will be doing every week where we share helpful tips for the industry! This could be tips on auditions, bookings, beauty, fashion and more!

This week’s tip is concerning your health: Omega 3 Fatty Acids can actually improve your mental health.

A lot of people tend to get the winter blues during this time of the year, mostly due to the cold weather or feeling alone during the holidays. However, studies have shown that omega 3 fatty acids tend to lower levels of depression! It has been shown that when people who are depressed start taking omega-3 supplements, their symptoms improve!

Omega 3 fatty acids are most commonly found in fish, nuts and plant seeds. So stock up on the chestnuts this winter! They also have a lot of other health benefits such as being an anti-inflammatory, reducing the risk of cancer, improving eye health, lessening the risk of heart disease and much more!

So if you are finding yourself feeling particularly down this season, take a look at your diet and see if you can increase your intake of omega 3 fatty acids!
