Quest Triple Fish Oil 1000 mg is a high-quality blend of carefully selected concentrated fish oils that provide an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids. These essential fatty acids, EPA and DHA, offer several cardiovascular benefits, including balancing cholesterol, decreasing triglycerides, and reducing blood pressure. EPA and DHA also prevent blood clotting and reduce inflammation, protecting against heart attacks and strokes. These essential fatty acids also have been shown to reduce joint swelling, decrease morning stiffness, and greatly reduce pain.
Recommended Daily Allowance: Dosage varies, depending on age.
Food Sources: Fatty cold-water fish.
Cause of Deficiency: Diet deficient in omega-3 fatty acids and an excess of omega-6 fatty acids.
Symptoms of Deficiency: High cholesterol, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, inflammation, joint pain.
Complementary Nutrients: A healthy diet
How Triple Fish Oil from Quest Works
The omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA are essential fatty acids; that is, they must be obtained from the diet because they are not manufactured in the body. Omega-3 fatty acids protect the cardiovascular system by helping to lower "bad" LDL cholesterol and raise "good" HDL cholesterol, decrease serum triglycerides, and reduce blood pressure. In addition, they prevent blood platelets from clotting and sticking to artery walls, thereby allowing blood to flow smoothly through the vessels. EPA and DHA also help to reduce the inflammation and pain of swollen joints.
Research
The results of randomized controlled trials in individuals with documented coronary heart disease (CHD) suggest a beneficial effect of dietary and supplemental omega-3 fatty acids. In a large randomized controlled trial of supplemental omega-3 fatty acids, CHD patients who received supplements providing 850 mg/day of EPA plus DHA for 3.5 years had a risk of sudden death that was 45% lower than those who did not take supplements, and a risk of death from all causes that was 20% lower. Interestingly, it took only 3 months of supplementation to demonstrate a significant decrease in total mortality, and 4 months to demonstrate a significant decrease in sudden death.
Side Effects
No side effects expected at recommended dosage. High doses of fish oil may cause belching, flatulence, nausea, bloating, and diarrhea.
Did You Know?
It has been estimated that the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids in the diet of early humans was 1:1, but the ratio in the typical Western diet is now almost 10:1 because of increased use of vegetable oils rich in omega-6 fatty acids and declining fish consumption.
