"Arctic Oils® Nutritional Supplements Professional Formula essential fatty acids are a new generation of lead free, pcb free, heavy metal free, mercury free, omega-3 lipids from fish oils”

Why take EPA and DHA?

The EPA and DHA found in this professional formulas are considered some of the most important nutrients in the human diet.1-27 These acids are also known as “essential” fatty acids because the human body cannot manufacture them and must be taken in an individual’s diet or supplementation form. A diet high in fish might even be unhealthy due to high mercury content in some fish. Omega-3 from fish oils is a direct source of EPA and DHA. While flax seed oil also yields Omega-3, it is in the form of ALA (Alpha- Linolenic Acid), which must then be converted into EPA and DHA. The human conversion of ALA to EPA and DHA is slow. A maximum of 15% of ALA (flax seed oil) can convert to EPA and 5%, if any at all, may convert to DHA. Although flax seed has many benefits, it is not recommended as a source of Omega-3 EPA and DHA fatty acids.
