This \u003cstrong\u003eomega-3 fish oil\u003c\/strong\u003e from NOW Foods provides 360 mg of EPA and 240 mg of DHA per 2 softgel serving, derived from fish oil concentrate. This gives you a targeted intake of omega-3s without having to eat a lot of fish every day, with a fixed amount of EPA and DHA per serving. A jar contains 200 softgels, a generous supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are Omega-3, EPA, and DHA?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOmega-3 fatty acids are a group of polyunsaturated fatty acids that the body can only produce to a limited extent and therefore mainly obtains from food. The two best-known are EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), which are mainly found in fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel, herring, anchovies, and sardines. Since not everyone eats fatty fish several times a week, many people opt for a fish oil supplement to specifically supplement their intake of EPA and DHA. In addition to EPA and DHA, there is a third well-known omega-3, ALA, found mainly in plant sources such as flaxseed and walnuts; the body only converts ALA into EPA and DHA to a limited extent, which makes the direct marine source of fish oil interesting for many. This omega-3 fish oil combines both fatty acids in one softgel, with the quantities separately indicated on the label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEPA and DHA per serving\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePer serving of 2 softgels, there are 2 grams of fish oil concentrate, with 600 mg of omega-3 fatty acids: 360 mg of EPA and 240 mg of DHA. By indicating both separately, you know precisely how much active fatty acids you are receiving, rather than just a total of fish oil. For fish oil supplements, the EPA and DHA content actually says more than the total milligrams of oil, because not all fish oils are equally concentrated. This omega-3 fish oil thus provides a clear choice for anyone who wants to monitor and compare their EPA and DHA intake with other products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat EPA and DHA contribute to\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEPA and DHA contribute to normal heart function (the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA). DHA also contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and normal vision (the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg of DHA). These are the approved health claims for these fatty acids, which you can also find in the overview further down this page. The mentioned thresholds immediately show why it is convenient that the EPA and DHA content is separately listed on the label: this allows you to adjust your intake well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMolecular Distillation and Origin\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fish oil is molecularly distilled, a purification step used to further refine fish oil into a stable and consistent final product and to reduce unwanted substances. This is a common treatment for higher quality fish oils, and it contributes to a more neutral oil. The formula also contains d-alpha-tocopherol from sunflower, which helps protect the oil from oxidation. This omega-3 fish oil comes from anchovies, sardines, and tuna, and the softgel contains fish gelatin, consistent with a fish oil product. The product therefore contains fish and is not suitable for those with a fish allergy; complete safety information can be found further down this page.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NOW Foods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49392692592868,"sku":"0733739016485","price":21.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/9724\/7460\/files\/Omega3Visolie200softgelsNOW.jpg?v=1783952304","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.fr\/en\/products\/now-omega-3-huile-de-poisson-distillee-moleculairement-360mg-epa-240mg-dha-200-capsules-molles-now-foods","provider":"LUTO Supplements France","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
