DriCelle DHA/EPA 1000
DriCelle DHA/EPA 1000 is a concentrated source of DHA and EPA
Background
Oil from fish such as mackerel, salmon, herring, sardines, anchovies and tuna is an excellent source of the omega-3 fatty acids, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA).
These in turn are essential for many biochemical functions within the human body. These special omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to keep blood triglycerides in check, to help to maintain the
integrity of the platelets and, through conversion to 3-series prostaglandins, to have anti-inflammatory activity.
Although there is limited conversion to EPA and DHA of alpha linolenic acid (ALA) found in vegetable sources such as flaxseed oil, most scientific evidence points to direct dietary supplementation of
EPA and DHA as being most effective.
Deodorized fish oil, emulsified and freeze-dried using patented technology, is an excellent source of the omega-3 fatty acids, DHA and EPA. Presented as a pure powder that can be mixed with water or
juice, Pharmax’s DHA/EPA 1000 is an easy and convenient way to take a physiologically beneficial dose of these fatty acids.
