An omega-3 supplement designed to support overall health.
The formula includes two critical types of omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, each with distinct health benefits.
- EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) is a precursor to eicosanoids, which are active substances that influence blood pressure, kidney function, blood clotting and inflammatory and immune responses.
- DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid), on the other hand, plays a crucial structural role in cell membranes, particularly in the central nervous system where it, along with ARA (Arachidonic Acid), makes up the phospholipids in neuronal cell membranes.
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has recognised the health benefits of omega-3s at doses exceeding 250 mg per day. This supplement provides a significantly higher dose, but it is safe and effective enough to provide beneficial health effects, making it an excellent choice for individuals seeking to improve their well-being.
The Monde Selection experts particularly appreciated the precise dosing and the clear, honest provision of the product’s nutritional content. These noteworthy qualities have earned the product a nomination for the 2024 Jury Prize.
