Mega EPA/DHA Benefits
- Promotes heart, joint & cognitive health
- Made with fresh, sustainably-sourced anchovy
- Helps balance omega-3 to omega-6 ratios
Mega EPA/DHA is Life Extension’s entry-level fish oil supplement. It’s a convenient way to get your heart, mind and joint-friendly omega-3 fatty acids in an easy-to-swallow softgel. Mega EPA/DHA is made with fish oil sustainably sourced from anchovy caught wild in the South Pacific, and it is ideal for anyone looking for an economical fish oil supplement or a formula with an adjustable dosage.
Omega-3s and heart health
Omega-3s are good for your heart.1 Research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids helps maintain a healthy heart. But the health benefits of fish oil support more than just the heart and vascular system.
Cognitive and joint health support
Omega-3s promote healthy cognitive function, help maintain your mood and encourage healthy blood flow in the brain. Omega-3s also inhibit inflammatory factors to support joint health. That makes taking an omega-rich fish oil supplement an important part of any joint health regimen.
Omega-3 vs. omega-6
There are two common omega fatty acids in our diets: omega-3s and omega-6s. They’re both essential to health, but balancing the two is even more important, especially since Westerners generally eat foods high in omega-6s and don’t get enough omega-3s. That makes omega-3 supplementation essential. For optimum health, the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids should be between 1:1 and 4:1.
Made with pure, fresh fish oil
Mega EPA/DHA is made with fish oil sustainably sourced from anchovy caught wild in the South Pacific. Caught by a Friend of the Sea certified fishery, these fish are processed in a facility located close to the fisheries to preserve freshness.
Each two-softgel serving of Mega EPA/DHA contains 720 mg of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and 480 mg of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), making it an affordable and convenient way to get your daily omega-3s.
