spinal cord and the Dr. recommended to stay laid down on bed. See you next class.

There has been considerable discussion recently about the

benefits of omega-3 fatty acids in the diet.
This text what features is:
Phrase, Title, or Sentence.

Note- I have written this text because more than 50% of the students in this
group were unable to identify the section 1.4 on last homework. I required to
those students to review and master that section to remain in this course.
Because students in this level, all should master what is a sentence, phrase,
title, paragraph, heading, etc. Please those who had this problem try to study
it.

(d) There has been considerable discussion recently about the benefits of
omega-3 fatty acids in the diet. sentence

(e) It is claimed that these reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and may
even combat obesity. Consequently food producers have added omega-3s to
products ranging from margarine to soft drinks in an attempt to make their
products appear healthier and hence increase sales. phrase
(f) However, consumers may be unaware that there are two types of omega-
3s. The best (long-chain fatty acids) are derived from fish, but others (short-
chain fatty acids) come from cheaper sources such as soya. This latter group
have not been shown to produce the health benefits linked to the long-chain
variety. According to Tamura et al . (2009) positive results may only be
obtained either by eating oily fish three times a week, or by taking daily
supplements containing 500mg of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) or
docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). paragraph
