Health Benefit Of Omega 3 #8: Prevents Autoimmune Conditions
We are constantly under threat from pathogens that could make us very ill. Thankfully, however, we have evolved a natural defense against these pathogens. We commonly call this defense system the immune system, and it is hard at work all day, every day.
As much as the immune system is meant to protect us, though, and can also sometimes attack our bodies. This is known as an autoimmune disease, and it is likely to cause a range of unwelcome symptoms.
