Descripción
- Function: Helps lower blood triglyceride levels with DHA and EPA derived from fish.
- Content: Each serving provides 510 mg of DHA and 110 mg of EPA, which are reported to help reduce blood triglyceride levels.
- Recommended For: Those concerned about triglyceride levels and individuals looking to incorporate fish-derived DHA into their diet.
Ingredients and Production
- Sources: DHA is extracted and purified from tuna (caught in the Pacific and Indian Oceans), while EPA is sourced from sardines captured off the coast of Peru.
- Purity: Made from safe, contaminant-free raw materials. The production process ensures that the fish oil used is free from pollutants such as mercury, dioxins, and radioactive substances.
Nutritional Context
- DHA and EPA: Essential fatty acids commonly found in fatty fish like tuna, mackerel, and sardines. These are difficult to obtain in sufficient quantities through diet alone.
-
Daily Intake Recommendations:
- Adult men: 2.0 g or more
- Adult women: 1.6 g or more
- Consuming the equivalent amount of DHA from tuna sashimi would require approximately 14 servings.
- Trend: As fish consumption has decreased over time, supplementing with DHA and EPA is increasingly relevant for maintaining adequate intake.
This supplement provides a convenient way to ensure you get these essential fatty acids, especially if your diet lacks sufficient fish.
