Omega-3 Supplement
Omega-3 classic supplement, low risk profile, many benefits including cognitive function.
WHY Take Omega-3?
Cardiovascular Health: Reduces inflammation, supports healthy blood pressure, and may lower triglycerides. Well-established research shows reduced risk of heart disease.
Brain Function: Essential for cognitive performance, memory, and mood regulation. DHA is a major structural component of brain tissue.
Anti-Inflammatory: Helps balance the body's inflammatory response, particularly important given most Western diets are high in pro-inflammatory omega-6 oils.
Eye Health: DHA supports retinal function and may help prevent age-related macular degeneration.
WHAT to Look For
EPA/DHA Content: Look for combined 1-2g daily. EPA is more anti-inflammatory, DHA more brain-supportive.
Third-Party Testing: Ensures purity and absence of contaminants like mercury, PCBs, and heavy metals.
Molecular Distillation: Removes impurities while concentrating the active omega-3s.
Form: Fish oil is most common, krill oil may absorb better, algae oil for vegetarians.
HOW to Take
With Meals: Improves absorption and reduces fishy burps.
Storage: Keep refrigerated in original dark bottle to prevent rancidity.
Timing: Can be taken any time of day, but consistency matters more than timing.
Quality Check: Fresh supplements shouldn't smell strongly fishy - if they do, they may be rancid.
