Sea fish oil: EPA and DHA for heart function
Adequate exercise and a healthy diet are important components of a heart-healthy lifestyle.
Unbalanced diets often contain too many saturated fatty acids, animal fats or cholesterol. The polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids, on the other hand, are often not consumed in sufficient quantities. The omega-3 fatty acids docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) cannot be produced by the body itself if the corresponding precursors are not present.
People first became aware of omega-3 fatty acids through a phenomenon in Greenland. A large part of their diet consists of sea fish, which are particularly rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
It is therefore important to supply the body with these important, polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids regularly and sufficiently through food. But not everyone can or wants to eat fish at least twice a week.
The most important representatives of omega-3 fatty acids are docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), which are only found in high concentrations in certain sea fish.
The Doppelherz capsules contain sea fish oil, which consists of 30% omega-3 fatty acids.
1 capsule Doppelherz Sea Fish Oil Omega-3 1000 mg + Folic Acid + B1 + B6 + B12 already provides 180 mg EPA and 120 mg DHA. EPA and DHA play a role in normal heart function.
The Omega-3 capsules from Doppelherz contain 1000 mg of sea fish oil as well as the water-soluble vitamins folic acid, vitamin B1, B6, B12 and the fat-soluble vitamin E.
Like vitamins B6 and B12, folic acid contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism. Normal homocysteine levels play a role in health.
Vitamin B1 - also known as thiamine - contributes to normal heart function.
Vitamins B6 and B12 contribute to the formation of red blood cells, which ensure the transport of oxygen in the body.
Folic acid and vitamins B6 and B12 also contribute to the normal function of the immune system.
Vitamin B1 and vitamin B6 support the normal function of the nervous system.
Vitamin E helps protect cells from oxidative stress.
