Fish oil, in particular the EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) component has been shown to have many health benefits for the general population in addition to particular benefits for sports people. A modern diet tends to have too many Omega 6 & 9 fatty acids relative to Omega 3 for optimal function. Our brain, lungs, heart and muscles have all been shown to work better with fish oil supplementation. Long-term studies of high-dose fish oil supplementation have been shown to have favourable effects that would be of benefit to athletic performance.

OTE Omega 3 Fish Oil supplement contains both EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) in a contaminant-free form making it easy to consume sufficient quantities of essential fatty acids.

There is no recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for omega-3 fatty acids. The beneficial effect for a healthy heart is obtained with a daily intake of 250mg of EPA and DHA. Maintenance of brain function and eye health is obtained with a daily intake of 250mg of DHA.

1 capsule contains 550mg of EPA and DHA

2 capsules per day cover the RDA of Omega 3 fatty acids according to Nordic recommendations (1000 mg/day).

Capsules can be taken alone or with meals.
