Mega EPA/DHA

120 softgels

Item Catalog Number: 01937EU

NON GMO ProductThe body needs fatty acids to survive and is able to make all but two of them: linoleic acid (LA), in the omega-6 family, and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) in the omega-3 family. These two fatty acids must be supplied by the diet and are therefore considered essential fatty acids (EFAs).

Omega-3 fatty acids, found in coldwater fish (and fish oil) are essential elements of a healthy diet. Omega-3 oils contain eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which are usually lacking in the typical Western diet, which is filled with foods containing high amounts of omega-6 fats.1 EPA and DHA can be synthesized in the body from ALA, but EPA and DHA synthesis may be insufficient under certain conditions and for most people that consume Western diets.

Most Americans and citizens of other Western nations consume far too many omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids and not enough omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. In fact, some Western diets consist of 20 parts of omega-6 to only one part of omega-3. For optimum health, the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids should be between 1:1 and 4:1.2

Studies associate the Mediterranean diet — rich in omega-3 fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids such as that found in olive oil, and antioxidant-rich fruits, vegetables, and herbs — with cardiovascular health and increased life span.3-11 Other studies support omega-3’s importance in cardiovascular health.12-14

Molecularly distilled Omega-3 contains twice as much EPA and DHA as most commercially available fish oil capsules.

What makes Mega EPA/DHA different from standard fish oil supplements?

Mega EPA/DHA provides exceptionally high concentrations of omega-3 fatty acids in each softgel, delivering therapeutic doses in fewer capsules than standard fish oil. While typical fish oil contains 30% omega-3s, this concentrated formula provides significantly higher EPA and DHA per serving. The fish oil undergoes molecular distillation and purification to remove contaminants while concentrating beneficial omega-3s. This high-potency approach means you get maximum cardiovascular, brain, and anti-inflammatory benefits without taking multiple large capsules daily. The concentrated formula also reduces the fishy aftertaste and digestive upset some people experience with lower-quality fish oils.

What are the differences between EPA and DHA and why do I need both?

EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) are distinct omega-3 fatty acids with complementary but different roles. EPA primarily supports cardiovascular health, healthy inflammatory response, and mood regulation by serving as a precursor to anti-inflammatory compounds called resolvins. DHA is the predominant structural omega-3 in the brain and retina, essential for cognitive function, memory, vision, and nervous system development and maintenance. Both are critical because human bodies cannot efficiently convert plant-based omega-3s (ALA) into EPA and DHA. Mega EPA/DHA provides generous amounts of both for comprehensive health support throughout the body.

How does Mega EPA/DHA support cardiovascular health?

Omega-3s from fish oil support heart health through multiple mechanisms. EPA and DHA help maintain healthy triglyceride levels already within normal range by reducing hepatic triglyceride synthesis. They support healthy blood pressure by promoting vascular relaxation and endothelial function. Omega-3s help maintain healthy heart rhythm and support proper platelet function without excessive clotting. They reduce inflammatory markers associated with cardiovascular concerns and support healthy cholesterol particle size and composition. Clinical studies show regular omega-3 supplementation at therapeutic doses significantly reduces cardiovascular risk factors and supports overall heart health maintenance.

Why is molecular distillation important for fish oil quality?

Molecular distillation is a purification process that removes environmental contaminants including heavy metals like mercury, PCBs, and dioxins that can accumulate in fish. This process uses vacuum and heat to separate omega-3s from contaminants based on molecular weight differences, ensuring the final product meets or exceeds stringent purity standards. Mega EPA/DHA undergoes rigorous testing and certification for purity and freshness. The process also helps concentrate omega-3 content while removing oxidized lipids that contribute to fishy taste and smell. This results in a cleaner, safer, more effective fish oil supplement free from the contaminants of concern in ocean fish.

How should I take Mega EPA/DHA for optimal benefits?

For best results, take Mega EPA/DHA with meals containing dietary fat, which significantly enhances omega-3 absorption. You can take the daily dose all at once or split between meals based on preference. Taking with food also minimizes any potential fishy aftertaste or digestive upset. Consistency is crucial—omega-3s accumulate in cell membranes and tissues over time, with maximum cardiovascular and anti-inflammatory benefits appearing after 2-3 months of regular daily use. Store in a cool place or refrigerate to maintain freshness and prevent oxidation. Consider taking with vitamin E or other antioxidants for additional protection of the delicate omega-3 fatty acids.
