A recent study in the Journal of Nutrition revealed that those individuals with the highest levels of omega 3 in their blood had the lowest BMIs, the smallest waists and the smallest hip circumferances. Omega 3 therefore may be an important nutrient in the battle against obesity. Omega 3 is found predominantly in oily fish such as salmon, mackerel, fresh tuna, mackerel and sardines. Vegetarian sources include linseeds, walnuts and columbus eggs. Fish or linseed oil capsules are available
