Mega 3 salmon oil capsules

Essential fatty acids are not produced in the body but obtained from dietary sources only. Mega 3 contains marine triglycerides providing a mixture of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid, the omega-3 marine fatty acids. Omega-3 triglycerides are precursors of eicosanoids in fish and, when taken by man, these compete with the precursor arachidonic acid. Their action in man includes reduction in plasma triglycerides, cholesterol and very low-density lipoproteins, an anti-inflammatory action and a fibrinolytic or antiplatelet effect. In addition, these fatty acids are needed for cell membrane structure and can be converted into prostaglandin which help to maintain healthy joints, circulation and heart function. Other components of omega-3 are vitamins A and D, however, very low concentrations, do not offer any therapeutic or prophylactic values even at higher doses
