Swanson EFAs Triple Strength Super EPA & DHA delivers an incredible 647 mg of EPA and 253 mg of DHA in ethyl ester form at a fraction of the price you'd pay elsewhere. Featuring high-purity, molecularly distilled oil from wild-caught anchovies, sardines and mackerel enveloped in an innovative enteric-delivery matrix, these softgels bypass the stomach for delivery in the lower GI tract for enhanced absorption, gastric comfort and no fishy burp-back. Triple Strength Super EPA & DHA offers clinical-standard quality and potency at an affordable price. Most omega-3 research has focused on the two primary fatty acids found in fish oil: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). These omega-3s provide valuable support for healthy cardiovascular function, promoting a favorable lipid balance and helping to maintain blood pressure already within the normal range. In fact, the National Heart Association recommends daily fish oil consumption to help keep the heart and cardiovascular system in good working condition. Supportive but inconclusive research shows that consuming both EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids as found in Swanson Triple Strength Super EPA & DHA may help lower blood pressure in the general population and reduce the risk of hypertension. But the benefits of fish oil supplementation go beyond cardiovascular care. Omega-3 fatty acids—especially DHA—provide valuable nourishment for the brain and central nervous system. In fact, approximately 95 percent of the omega-3 in the brain is in the form of DHA, and it plays a vital role in brain health throughout our lives, starting even before we’re born. Many nutritionists recommend fish oil supplementation during pregnancy to promote healthy fetal brain and nervous system development, and later in life to help maintain healthy memory and cognitive function throughout our senior years. But with conventional fish oil supplements, you have to take a pretty large amount to get the levels of DHA recommended for cognitive maintenance, which can be a problem for many people. That’s where our Triple Strength Super EPA & DHA can help.The main problems people encounter with high intakes of fish oil are gastrointestinal side effects—the infamous fishy burp—and concerns about environmental pollutants like mercury, dioxins and PCBs.
