Product Description
OmegaEPA™ Fish Oil
Marine Lipids with EPA and DHA * 1,000 mg * Maintains Normal Cholesterol Levels
Omega EPA is an excellent source of fish oils, rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3's have been the subject of intensive research, due to repeated observations that people whose diets are high in fatty fish tend to be healthier than other populations. The most important omega-3 fatty acids are EPA and DHA. Preliminary scientific evidence suggests EPA may help maintain cholesterol levels already in the normal range when consumed as part of a low-fat and low-cholesterol dietary program. DHA is an important component of brain tissue.
EFA’s: Healthy Fats
Essential fatty acids (EFA’s) support an amazing variety of cellular processes. In addition to their cardiovascular benefits, they maintain cell wall and membrane integrity, generate energy, produce hormones and support brain, nerve, and eye function. Yet too many people today eat diets that are high in saturated or hydrogenated fats, but low in healthy fats— essential fatty acid.
DHA's:
DHA is an omega-3 long chain fatty acid that is the primary building block of the brain and retina. The brain is 60% fat, and DHA is the most abundant fatty acid in the brain, comprising 25-35%. DHA is found in even greater concentrations—50-60%—in the retina. DHA is critical for infant development, especially the rapid cerebral and eye development that occurs during pregnancy and the first few months after birth. It is an important nutrient for pregnant women and nursing mothers. DHA also has been associated with optimal memory function, visual acuity, and a positive mental state. It is an integral component of all membranes with electrical activity, including brain and nerve cells.
Each Soft gel contains 180mg of EPA, healthful omega-3 fatty acid. and 120mg of DHA. Epidemiological and animal studies have shown that EPA supports a healthy cardiovascular system. It is important for healthy skin
and is a precursor of prostaglandins, thromboxanes and leukotrienes— chemical mediators that help regulate physiological processes including blood pressure and blood clotting.
