The Global Organization for EPA and DHA Omega-3s (GOED) suggests omega-3 intakes of 500 to 1000 mg per day. And some studies have shown advantages at even higher intakes.
How does BiOmega love your heart? Let’s count the ways:
1. Supportive, but not conclusive research, shows that consumption of EPA and DHA may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.
2. EPA and DHA help maintain healthy high-density lipoprotein (HDL—the good cholesterol) and triglyceride (a type of fat) levels in plasma, which are important for supporting healthy arterial function and blood flow.
3. Higher levels of omega-3s in plasma have been associated with maintained, normal blood pressure levels.
4. Consumption of omega-3 fatty acids in the diet is linked to endothelial health, which is important for healthy circulation.
5. Supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids has been associated with arterial flexibility, a factor in good cardiovascular health.
6. Consuming one gram of marine omega-3 fatty acids per day has been associated with maintaining a healthy resting heart rate.
