Fish Oil - 1000mg

GNC Fish Body Oil 1000 mg

Fish oil is one of the richest sources of essential Omega-3 fatty acids. Regular intake of Omega-3 is highly recommended and beneficial in every stage of life. They can prevent serious health problems and complications and are also necessary for proper fetal brain and neurological development; hence its intake is significant during pregnancy. EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) and DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid), are the two main types of Omega-3 fatty acids present in fish oil. As per the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), it is important to consume a minimum of 250mg to 2g of EPA and DHA daily to gain health benefits. Our diet often lacks the desired daily requirement of EPA and DHA and hence Omega-3 Fish Oil supplements become a convenient way to obtain them in desired amounts.

Q. What Are Omega-3s?
Omega-3 fatty acids are one of the essential fatty acids found in both marine and plant based foods and oils. There are three types of Omega-3 fatty acids:

• Alpha-linolenic Acid (ALA), found in plant oils like flaxseed, soybean, and canola oils.
• Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA), found in oily fish, like salmon and tuna.
• Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA), found in oily fish, like salmon and tuna.

ALA is an essential Omega-3 fatty acid meaning that our body cannot make it so you must get it from the diet. EPA and DHA can be produced from ALA; however this process is not very efficient and therefore cannot be relied upon to produce significant amounts of EPA and DHA.
