Description: Omega 3 by Myogenix
Scientific interest in Omega-3 fatty acids and fish oils increased greatly when it was realized that population groups who consumed fatty fish had considerably lower mortality rates from cardiac and circulatory diseases than the general population. It was determined that the oils in these fish provided the beneficial effects. Over 5000 scientific papers have been published dealing with and documenting the benefits of Omega-3 activated fish oils. The two most important Omega-3 fatty acids are the biologically activated oils - EPA and DHA. EPA is effective in supporting healthy cardiac and circulatory systems, while DHA is an essential structural component of the central nervous system. DHA is important for optimum development of the brain and the eyes, and is therefore very important for the health of pregnant women and small children. Currently, the level of DHA in American women's breast milk is one of the lowest in the world. |
