Omega-3
EPA/DHA (Triglyceride Form) — typical dose 1,500 mg
We don’t sell Omega-3. Whether you actually need it — and at what dose — depends on your bloodwork. Get your analysis to find out.
What it does
High-potency EPA and DHA in the triglyceride form — the same form found in whole fish. Triglyceride-form omega-3 is absorbed up to 70% better than cheaper ethyl ester alternatives, with none of the fishy aftertaste. Look for oil sourced from wild-caught small fish (anchovy and sardine) to minimise heavy metal contamination.
Key benefits
- Cardiovascular protection
- Brain health and cognition
- Joint inflammation
- Triglyceride reduction
The evidence
REDUCE-IT trial showed 25% CVD risk reduction with high-dose EPA. Multiple meta-analyses confirm benefits for triglycerides, blood pressure, and inflammation.
