Dorian Yates Nutrition – Omega 3
There are four main types of fats: saturated, monounsaturated, polyunsaturated, and trans fats. All of these fats are naturally present in our diet, and while the body needs all types of fat in moderation for various functions, it is the unsaturated fats (monounsaturated and polyunsaturated) that are widely recognized for their positive contributions to overall health.
For this reason, Omega-3 fish oil has become one of the most popular dietary supplements in the world.
Benefits and Properties of Fish Oil
-
Fish oil is undoubtedly the best source of polyunsaturated fats. The term “fish oil” generally refers to two types of omega-3 fatty acids: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). EPA and DHA are found in both plant- and animal-based foods such as salmon, vegetable oils, some nuts and seeds, and are abundant in fish and phytoplankton. However, modern diets are often low in these food sources, which makes supplementation the most effective and convenient way to consume EPA and DHA.
-
The EPA and DHA in fish oil are known to support brain health and development, particularly during childhood. These fatty acids can modify the lipid composition of cell membranes, influence cellular metabolism, signal transduction, and regulate gene expression. Fish oil also plays a key role in the prevention and management of many long-term health conditions, primarily due to its ability to reduce and manage inflammation.
Dosage:
For those who do not consume oily fish, it is recommended to take just 2 softgels daily to obtain 2000 mg of fish oil, providing a strong 660 mg of EPA and 440 mg of DHA (1000 mg combined). In cases of existing cardiovascular disease, a minimum of 1000 mg of EPA and DHA is recommended.
Warning:
