What are omega-3 fatty acids?
OMEGA-3 acids is a common name for a group of compounds belonging to essential unsaturated fatty acids (EFA).
OMEGA-3 acids are…
ESSENTIAL - because, unlike saturated fatty acids, our body cannot produce them on its own, but they are needed at many levels of its functioning. Therefore, they must be provided in appropriate amounts in food.
UNSATURATED - which means that the molecules of these acids contain at least one double bond between carbon atoms in the carbon chain. The suffix '3' means that the last such double bond is located at the third carbon atom from the end of the chain.
The three main OMEGA-3 acids that play the most important role in healthy eating are:
- ALA (Alpha-Linolenic Acid)
- EPA (Eicosapentaeonic Acid)
- DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid)
OMEGA-3 or OMEGA-6?
Providing both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids is very important for the proper functioning of the body. However, it is important to maintain their appropriate ratio in the diet. The optimal ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 is 1:4.
In the diet of Western societies (European or American), this balance is significantly shifted towards excessive consumption of omega 6 acids. This is because the main part of the diet are products of animal origin, in which saturated fatty acids predominate, as well as omega-6 acids. However, little fish, seafood and plant products (oils), which are a natural source of omega 3 acids, are consumed.
The consequence of this style of eating is a disruption of the omega-3 to omega-6 ratio, which is 1:15 or even 1:20. The result of maintaining this condition for a longer period of time is the appearance of pro-inflammatory compounds produced from omega-6 acids in the body.
The point is not to eliminate either fatty acids from your diet, but to eat a balanced diet, providing both omega-3 and omega-6 acids in a proportion as close to the optimal one as possible. Due to dietary habits rooted in our culture, it is much more difficult to maintain the supply of omega-3 fatty acids at an appropriate level than omega-6 fatty acids, which is why in many cases omega-3 supplementation is recommended.
DHA Origins® - unique among OMEGA-3 oils
The DHA Origins® oil contained in our product comes from a renowned European manufacturer specializing in the cultivation and processing of algae. It is obtained exclusively from sustainable crops, in which algae are multiplied in a closed circuit, without having a negative impact on the natural environment. The entire production process - from algae cultivation to the extraction process - takes place in Europe.
DHA Origins® oil is produced by extraction from specially selected strains of Schizochytrium sp. microalgae, naturally rich in DHA. The production process consists only of physical extraction and purification. The oil is not subjected to chemicals or any chemical processes, including fatty acid recombination reactions, as is the case with many other highly concentrated sources of DHA available on the market. The high concentration of DHA results exclusively from the natural DHA content in Schizochytrium sp algae .
Omega-3 acids (DHA) from algae have the same health properties as omega-3 obtained from fish and, like them, they are an ideal form of supplementation for people at every stage of life, and are also suitable for vegetarians and vegans:
- DHA helps maintain normal levels of triglycerides in the blood
- DHA helps maintain proper vision*
- DHA contributes to maintaining normal brain functions*
*the beneficial effect occurs when consuming 250 mg of EPA and DHA per day
Our omega acids occur only in the natural form of triglycerides and are free from synthetically esterified forms. The oil is encapsulated in a protective atmosphere, which makes it easy to store the capsules at room temperature.
