What are omega-3 fats?

You always want to do the very best for your health, and you think that fat has no place in that for fear of putting on weight. Fat-rich foods such as pizza, deep-fried foods, processed meats or cakes and biscuits are indeed poor sources of fats. They contain saturated fats, which we’re advised to avoid. But not all types of fat are bad. Take omega-3 fats. These belong to the unsaturated fats, the ‘good’ fats. You need these to stay healthy!

The difference between EPA and DHA.

EPA and DHA are the omega-3 fats that optimise normal heart function, maintain blood fat levels and play a part in maintaining healthy blood pressure. They supplement each other in these roles.

DHA has something more to offer. DHA helps brain function and keeps the eyes healthy, from before birth to a very advanced age. EPA is therefore not the same as DHA, but your body can make good use of both omega-3 fat.

Is fish oil the same thing as omega-3?

As a savvy consumer, you’ve already decided for yourself that you’ll take fish oil, so you’ll get both EPA and DHA from that. So that’s all sorted, isn’t it? Well, that’s partly right! Fish oil is not synonymous with omega 3. It does not always even contain the same amount of omega 3. Normal fish oil contains roughly 30% omega 3, high-quality fish oil around 80-90%.

Half a gram of ordinary fish oil contains no more than 150mg EPA/DHA, while half a gram of high-quality fish oil contains 400-500mg EPA/DHA. When you consider that your heart needs a daily dose in the region of 1000mg, you’ll see why you should choose high-quality fish oil. So always look to see how much EPA+DHA is contained in one capsule.
