Promotes heart and cognitive health

Omega-3 fatty acids (omega-3s) are a kind of fat that are found both in the human body and in foods, especially seafood and shellfish. The types of omega-3s found in the body differ. The most abundant in the brain is called Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA). This type of omega-3 is important for brain and eye development and function throughout life. It is also beneficial for heart health. Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) is another type of omega-3 fatty acid that is important for overall health, but unlike DHA, the body does not store EPA in large amounts. Omega-3 supplements may help reduce the risk of developing coronary artery disease, alleviate symptoms of psychological and psychiatric conditions, and possibly reduce the risk of certain types of cancers.
