Happiness and Your Health

Immune system – happiness can boost your immune system. Studies have shown that people who have more positive emotions are less likely to catch a cold.

Nature’s Own Odourless Fish Oil

Fish oil contains a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, which is a healthy fat that our body does not naturally produce. Consuming fish oil has a range of benefits which include supporting brain, heart and cardiovascular health, reducing mild arthritis and joint inflammation and maintaining healthy blood fats and eye function. Whilst pregnant, omega-3 fatty acids are important for the development of the baby’s eyesight, nervous system and brain.

You can get your intake of omega-3 by eating fish two or three times a week, but a fish oil supplement is much more convenient and also a cheaper alternative.

Nature’s Own Odourless Fish Oil is available at a Calanna Wholehealth Pharmacy near you. Doing good deeds – turns out one of the fastest ways to make ourselves happy is by making others happy, so go ahead and pay that coffee forward.

Bright colours – a study found a link between bright colours and happiness. Happier people favour yellow, while grey was closely associated with anxiety and depression.

The 20th of March is World Happiness Day. What’s something that makes you happy? Be sure to do a lot of it on the day and spread the word, because happiness is contagious.
