Around 80% of the world and 90% of people in North America don’t consume enough omega-3 fatty acids.
Low omega-3 levels are associated with a 5-year decrease in life expectancy!
Low omega-3 intake carries the same mortality risk as smoking!
Omega-3 supplementation is foundational for long-term health!
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fats that play critical roles in neurodevelopment, cognitive function, immune response, inflammation control, cardiovascular health, cancer prevention, and healthy aging.
One reason that omega-3s are so beneficial is that they reduce and prevent chronic low-grade vascular and systemic inflammation—a process that contributes to several of the hallmarks of aging.
Along with their anti-inflammatory effects, omega-3s:
improve brain structure and function
modulate immune responses
enhance mitochondrial function
strengthen the membranes in our nervous system.
Who benefits the most?
Females might derive a greater benefit from omega-3s than males.
Adults older than 60 derive the greatest benefit from a higher omega-3 intake compared to younger age groups.
People with high blood pressure derive more benefits from higher omega-3 intakes than people without high blood pressure.
A food-first approach to obtaining omega-3 fatty acids is ideal—fish like salmon, sardines, and mackerel are the best sources. But unless you’re eating oily fish daily, it’s going to be hard to consume an adequate amount of Omega 3’s.
Most people will benefit from taking a quality omega-3 supplement. 2–4 grams of omega-3s daily is recommended for optimal benefits.
Check out our Cyto-Matrix Professional Grade EPA FISH OIL Supplement. Each capsule contains 700mg of EPA and 350mg of DHA, so taking 2 capsules once or twice a day is recommended to optimize your Omega 3 intake.
