Description

Opti-EPA 500 – More Convenient Source of Omega-3

r

Opti-EPA 500 from Douglas Laboratories is concentrated marine fish oil that supports cardiovascular health with enriched levels of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

r

Opti-EPA is lower in saturated fatty acids than regular marine fish oil.

r

For many years, the American Heart Association has recommended that at least two times a week people should eat fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids to support a healthy heart.

r

However, some people remain worried about mercury or other contaminants in fish outweighing its heart-health benefits.

r

Nonetheless, the benefits for a healthy heart of eating fish usually outweigh the possible risks of exposure to contaminants.

r

But for those who may be still worried about mercury levels, Opti-EPA is strictly screened for the absence of any toxic metals and chemicals and is completely free of cholesterol.

r

And the oil is carefully processed and handled to avoid oxidation.

r

The typical American diet contains too much omega-6 and not enough omega-3. And a balance between these unsaturated fats seems to be necessary for a strong immune system.

r

Omega-3 fatty acids may reduce pain and swelling throughout your body. Sometimes, your body’s natural defense processes can damage your blood vessels and lead to heart imbalance in favor of Omega-6 could produce such problematic effects.
