Do you know what omega-3 supplements could be doing for you?

 

Omega-3s are essential fatty acids – so-called because of the essential role they can play in supporting your health and wellbeing.

 

Oily fish like tuna, salmon and mackerel are one of the main sources of omega-3, but if you don’t like it or don’t eat much of it, omega-3 supplements are a handy way to top up your intake. They typically contain two types of omega-3: DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid).

 

DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal vision and brain function*, while a 250mg daily dose of DHA and EPA can contribute to the normal function of the heart**.

At Garden of Life, traceability is at the heart of all our products and that extends to our omega-3 range. We are committed to harvesting fish that are abundant in the wild and never endangered. The fish we use are wild, fresh-caught fish that have been sustainably harvested in pristine waters.

 

Here, we take a look at the different omega-3 supplements available in our range, including omega-3 for women’s health needs and pregnant women:

 

1. Omega-3 Softgels

 

Garden of Life DHA Softgels contain 1,000mg of DHA per softgel to help support your health and wellbeing.

 

 

This high-quality, high-potency DHA formula is made using a fully traceable, sustainably sourced formula made from anchovies that contains compounds known as SPMs (Specialized Pro-Resolving Mediators), which are known to naturally support normal inflammatory responses in the body.

 

2. Oceans 3 Beyond Omega-3 Softgels

 

Our Garden of Life Oceans 3 Beyond Omega-3 Softgels contain 1.3mg of omega-3 per softgel, including 675mg of EPA and 450mg of DHA for benefits including heart health and brain support.

 

 

Our Oceans 3 formulas are the only fish oil brand made with Omega-Xanthin®, which is a blend of ultra-pure, high-potency fish oil rich in both EPA and DHA, combined with 4mg astaxanthin from sea algae and 1mg concentrated fucoxanthin from brown seaweed.
