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 a source of essential fatty acids from quality fish oil, rich in omega-3. These omega-3 fatty acids may have additional health benefits compared 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 decreased risk of developing some memory impairments. Studies have shown that people with high levels of EPA in the blood are less likely to develop dementia.
• Promotes Healthy Circulation & Cardiovascular Health
Omega-3s have been recommended by the American Heart Association for years to support reduced risk of cardiovascular disease. EPA has demonstrated to have the ability to reduce the total volume of plaque accumulated in the heart’s arteries. Omega-3, also has the ability to decrease 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 eye are highly enriched with omega-3 fatty acids, the retina, in particular, has very high levels of DHA. DHA is known for several health benefits, vision protection being one of them. One study has found that it may be able to prevent age-related vision loss. Maintaining healthy levels of these fatty acids is important to keep the eyes healthy.
• Promotes Bone & Joint Health
Regular use of fish-oil has been shown to show preventative bone loss during aging. Studies have shown that EPA and DHA protect bone loss by inhibiting inflammation. People who suffer with conditions such as arthritis may find supplementing with EPA-DHA Omega-3 beneficial. Fish oil supplements have been found to be the most efficient form to fulfill the amount 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 reduce the skin’s sensitivity to UV rays and may help against sun damage. It may also reduce the severity of acne by reducing inflammation as well as reducing inflammation in nail beds, keeping nails nourished. 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 reduce triglyceride levels. Omega-3 fatty acids are considered “healthy fats” and are recommended to those seeking cardiovascular health and well-being. Supplementing helps achieve the required amount to see a more significant reduction in triglyceride levels, a lipid in the blood, that in high quantities may lead to coronary heart disease.
