Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Essential for Optimal Health

Omega-3 fatty acids are vital for a balanced diet, with two key types found in fish oil—EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid)—being particularly well-studied. Recent research highlights the significance of these two omega-3s, but also reveals a broader family of eight omega-3 fatty acids, each playing a unique and synergistic role in human nutrition.

While dietary guidelines in various countries, including recommendations from the USDA and South Africa's Food Based Dietary Guidelines, suggest consuming 2-3 servings of fish per week for optimal health, many people fail to meet these recommendations. Issues such as environmental contamination and limited fish consumption—especially among pregnant women, who are advised to limit their fish intake—exacerbate the problem.

Children, in particular, often fall short of the suggested intake, which is about 250-500 mg of omega-3 fatty acids daily. Research indicates that many children consume too much saturated fat and not enough omega-3-rich polyunsaturated fats, even in regions with ample fish access. In Sub-Saharan Africa, fish remains a minimal part of the diet, further contributing to omega-3 deficiencies.

NeoLife addresses these challenges with Omega-3 Salmon Oil Plus and Smart 8, which offer a complete omega-3 profile, ensuring comprehensive supplementation of all eight omega-3 fatty acids in every dose.

Why Supplement with Omega-3 Fish Oil?

• Rich Source: Fatty fish are the best source of omega-3 fatty acids, but most people do not consume the recommended 2-3 servings per week.
• Effective Supplementation: Supplements are a proven method to boost omega-3 intake.
• Supportive Functions: Omega-3 fatty acids support various body functions, including those of the heart, blood vessels, brain, nerves, eyes, skin, and joints.
• Infant Health: Omega-3s in maternal diets contribute to higher levels of these fatty acids in infants, benefiting their brain and eye development.
• Cognitive Health: Omega-3s may help slow brain aging, with studies showing improved cognitive function in older adults who consume EPA and DHA.
• Alternative for Non-Fish Eaters: Fish oil supplements offer a solution for those who do not enjoy fish but still need omega-3s for optimal health.
