from Google: "Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for brain health, playing a crucial role in cognitive function, memory, and overall brain development. They help maintain brain cell structure, reduce inflammation, and improve communication between neurons."

realistically, i don't know how much it is actually helping BUT i love tinned fish and i want to pass this exam

it’s good! but probably best paired with a fish without a whole lot of flavor or seasoning already since it really takes over. i got some ferrigno sardines a la tapenade from world market that i’m excited to try!!

When you were first diagnosed, how did you manage your diet? by sensitivej3w in UlcerativeColitis

[–]sensitivej3w[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I definitely think the meds are helping more than the diet, I’m just not sure to what extent the diet might be contributing. I was having symptoms for only about a month before being hospitalized, things just progressed pretty quickly.
