Description
Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA help maintain healthy levels of good cholesterol. The health benefits of Omega-3 fatty acids are well known. The first studies carried out in the 1970s showed that Greenlandians, who consume large amounts of fatty fish, actually did not suffer from cardiovascular diseases and did not have atherosclerosis. Other vital signs of health, such as triglycerides level, blood pressure and pulse, were also better than other groups have. The most important fatty acids among all Omega-3 are Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). EPA has a powerful anti-inflammatory effect and, according to clinical researches, can reduce the risk of heart disease, rheumatism and even cancer. At the same time, DHA plays an important role in heart and brain health.
