Quest Triple Fish Oil

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, decreases 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.

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 recieved 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 suppplements, 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.
