EPA-DHA Omega-3 is a dietary supplement formulated to promote healthy aging, healthy circulation, eye and vision health, and cardiovascular health. It also promotes bone, joint, hair, skin, and nail health, as well as healthy lipid and fat levels. EPA-DHA Omega-3 is available in softgels from Natura-Genics®.
Key Ingredients
EPA-DHA Omega-3 contains EPA and DHA, which are sources of essential fatty acids from quality fish oil, rich in omega-3. These omega-3 fatty acids may have additional health benefits in comparison to essential fatty acids derived from flaxseed oil and other vegetable oils. DHA is found in very few foods and supplementation is, at times, the best option.
Benefits of EPA-DHA Omega-3
• Promotes Healthy Aging
Maintaining healthy levels of omega-3 is vital throughout the process of aging beginning in the womb. Supplementation during pregnancy has been deemed important and has been associated with multiple benefits for the infant. Omega-3 has also been associated with supporting a healthy brain and cognitive function. Studies have shown that people with high levels of EPA in the blood are less likely to develop some memory impairing diseases.
• Promotes Healthy Circulation & Cardiovascular Health
Omega-3s have been recommended by the American Heart Association for years to support cardiovascular health. EPA has been demonstrated to have the ability to promote a reduced volume of plaque accumulated in the heart’s arteries. Omega-3 also supports decreased levels of triglycerides, which is a type of fat in the blood that, if too high, increases the risk of certain heart diseases.
• Promotes Eye and Vision Health
The brain and the eyes are highly enriched with omega-3 fatty acids. In particular, the retina has very high levels of DHA. DHA is known for several health benefits which include supporting healthy vision. One study has found that it may be able to assist in vision protection.
• Promotes Bone & Joint Health
Regular use of fish oil has been shown to support healthy bone density and may assist in preventative bone loss during aging. Studies have shown that EPA and DHA protect bone loss by inhibiting inflammation. EPA-DHA Omega-3 supports healthy joints and may help alleviate some of the symptoms associated with joint disorders. Fish oil supplements may be the most efficient way to fulfill the number of fatty acids needed to promote bone and joint health.
• Promotes Hair, Skin, and Nail Health
Fish oil is also beneficial for hair, skin, and nails. Some studies show that DHA and EPA may support reduced skin sensitivity to UV rays and may help against sun damage. It may also promote reduced severity of acne by decreasing inflammation. Reduced inflammation in nail beds promotes healthy and nourished nails. Supplementing with fish oil may also strengthen hair and promote hair growth.
• Promotes Healthy Lipid and Fat Levels
DHA and EPA have been shown to support healthy triglyceride levels, a lipid in the blood that, in high quantities, may lead to coronary heart disease. Omega-3 fatty acids are considered “healthy fats” and are recommended to those seeking cardiovascular health and well-being.
