Description
600 MG EPA/DHA
For Cardiovascular Support, Cognitive Health and Reducing Serum Triglycerides
For Mood Balance practitioner.
For Reducing Pain of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil improve a number of cardiovascular risk factors, including lowering of atherosclerotic burden, reducing triglyceride levels and blood pressure, and improving platelet and vascular function.1-4 Not only do these fatty acids modulate risk factors, but controlled clinical trials have shown them to be effective in preventing cardiovascular events, and coronary events, particularly in persons at high risk.5,6
EPA and DHA also support cognitive function through multiple mechanisms, as they are indispensable to neuronal membranes, with lower levels found to be not only a marker for neurological disease, but also a risk factor for cognitive impairment.7,8 EPA and DHA are essential to the resolution of inflammatory processes, providing the substrates for anti-inflammatory prostaglandins, resolvins and protectins.9-11
Features
- Optimal 2:1 ratio EPA to DHA in a highly bioavailable softgel
- Pharmaceutical grade omega-3 fish oil blend, USP verified for quality and consistency
- Free of lipid peroxides and environmental pollutants, including heavy metals, pesticides, dioxins, PCBs, and other harmful compounds
- Harvested through sustainable fishing practices
- Sourced from wild anchovies, sardines, and/or mackerel, one of the best natural sources of EPA and DHA
Benefits have also been shown for improving overall health, including a wide variety of cardiovascular, inflammatory, and autoimmune conditions, ranging from cardiac arrhythmias, eczema, and inflammatory bowel disease, to pregnancy and breastfeeding support, rheumatoid arthritis, and neurodegenerative disease.12-17 Improvements in cognitive function have been established among youth and adolescents with ADHD, with improved mood and slower cognitive decline among the elderly.18-20 Meta-analyses of randomized trials found supplementation improved lipids and HbA1c as well as reduced proteinuria among diabetics, and enhanced insulin sensitivity among individuals with at least one symptom of a metabolic disorder.21-23

Contraindications
Individuals with an allergy to fish or seafood should use caution, though fish oil is rarely allergenic. Both benefit and risk have been documented for those at risk of or being treated for cardiac arrhythmias, with close supervision indicated.24 Pregnant and nursing women are often advised to consume a minimum of 300 mg DHA per day, and although DHA is recognized as essential to neurological development, no dosage recommendations have been made for children or infants.
Drug Interactions
The antihypertensive effect of fish oil may potentially reduce the need or dosage for blood pressure medications, and patients should be closely monitored. Because fish oil has an antithrombotic effect, caution has traditionally been advised for those on anticlotting, antiplatelet or anticoagulant medications, or those at high risk of bleeding. However, a multinational randomized and controlled trial found that fish oil did not increase perioperative bleeding, and it reduced the number of transfusions needed, and appeared to be associated with a lower risk of bleeding when given pre- and postoperatively.25,26 At doses greater than 3 g per day, hyperglycemia has been observed in diabetics and those with hypertriglyceridemia and close monitoring of patients on antidiabetic medication is recommended. Benefit has been shown when fish oil is taken with statins, SSRIs, anticonvulsant and cytotoxic medications.27,28
