Getting enough EPA and DHA omega-3s from fish oil helps maintain the health of your cardiovascular system and supports healthy circulation. More than 90% of adults don't get enough of EPA and DHA omega-3s from fish to meet current recommendations for cardiovascular health. The dietary recommendation is to consume at least two servings of a variety of seafood, preferably fatty fish rich in DHA and EPA omega-3 fatty acids, per week.
When choosing the right fish oil product for you, make sure to understand your potency and speak to your health care provider to see what dosage is right for you. Pay attention to the total amount of EPA and DHA omega-3s contained in your fish oil supplement. The higher concentration of DHA and EPA, the less softgels you'll need to take to get enough omega-3s
Puritan's Pride Maximum Strength Triple Omega 3-6-9 Fish, Flax, & Borage Oils is a 3-in-1 combination product designed to support heart health, healthy circulation, and healthy joints. Each serving of 3 softgels provides 1,354 mg of omega-3s, which includes EPA, DHA, and ALA from purified fish oil and organic flax seed oil. It also contains a typical amount of 296 mg of omega-6s, including both LA and GLA, and 266 mg of omega-9 comprised of oleic acid from flax and borage oils.
What are other benefits of EPA and DHA intake?
While EPA and DHA omega-3s from fish oil are primarily known for their role in heart health, the benefits of these “good fats” extend far beyond that of your cardiovascular system.
All your cells: Omega-3s are some of the most important fatty acids you need for cellular health. They play a key structural role in the membranes of every cell in your body and are essential for normal cell growth.
Metabolism: Because of their roles in cell-signaling, EPA and DHA are important fatty acids you need to support metabolic health.
Skin and joints: EPA and DHA are essential for keeping skin looking healthy and supporting joint health.
Triglyceride levels and Circulation: Beyond other well-documented cardiovascular benefits, a dosage of at least 900 mg per day of EPA and DHA helps maintain triglyceride levels already within a normal range. EPA and DHA also support healthy circulation.
Mom and Baby: During times of pregnancy and breastfeeding, DHA helps replenish supplies for mom and supports baby's brain and eye development. A dose of at least 200 mg per day of DHA can help support moms before, during, and after pregnancy.
Brain: Omega-3s, primarily as DHA, are naturally found in our brain, as part of brain cell membranes. These omega-3s play an important role in normal brain structure. A dosage of 2620 milligrams per day of EPA and DHA can help support brain health.
Eyes: For those spending a lot of time in front of a computer, a dosage of 1200 milligrams per day of EPA and DHA may help with occasional dry eyes
