Hidden Mutant

Camping skin update: I’m starting to notice two small breakouts possible, likely from touching my chin/jaw with dirty hands throughout the day. So far so good, though! I’ll probably slap some on them tonight, and cross my fingers 🤞🏽
As you’ll notice, I’m also wearing a sunhat (this one is specifically designed to protect against UVA/UVB!), because even if you use , it’s usually a good idea to wear a hat as well if you’re going to be outdoors all day 🏕

I am back in my regular abode now, but wanted to share one of my favorite foods that Umma made!
This is (매운탕), a fish/seafood based spicy stew; this particular bowl has and as the main components. It’s fairly light in flavor, and the chrysanthemum greens have a fairly unique taste to them!
As many of you are probably aware, fatty acids are an extremely important part of our . It’s very common to take supplements for this (I do this as well), but supplements are just that- supplemental to your actual diet. Many studies are now showing that only taking fish oil capsules doesn’t have the same benefits as eating one-to-two servings of omega-3 rich foods a day.
There could be many reasons for this, but the prevailing idea is that our bodies get more from these food sources than just omega-3’s: equally supportive vitamins, minerals, and other micronutrients won’t be found in those little golden gels.
If you are serious about wanting to increase your omega-3 intake (for such benefits as reduced risk of heart disease, mood disorders, joint pain, and increased skin and hair health!), then you should focus on your diet. Some of the best meat-based foods include:
Salmon
Sardines and Anchovies
Mackerel
Shrimp
But, if you’re not a seafood fan, this list can look fairly unappealing. Luckily, there are many other vegetarian and vegan options! These include:
Flax, H**p, and Chia Seeds
Walnuts
Soy-based products (edamame, tofu, tempeh)
Broccoli
Eggs
Fontina and Pecorino Romano Cheese
This is not a comprehensive list by any means, a little bit of research goes a long way towards finding what could be your next favorite to add to your diet 😋
