Nutrova Complete Omega 3 Capsule

Omega-3 fats are essential nutrients, meaning that we have to get them from our diets. Plant-based foods contain the short chain omega-3 fat ALA which our body can convert to the long chain omega-3 that it needs, namely EPA and DHA. However, less than 5% of dietary ALA is converted to DHA, meaning that consuming even extremely high quantities of ALA-rich foods (flax seeds, etc.) may not get you to meet your recommended daily requirements of EPA and DHA.

EPA and DHA help regulate inflammation and must be consumed in proportion to omega-6 fats, which support inflammation. However, urban Indian diets contain 38 to 50 times as much omega-6, which can promote chronic inflammation.

DHA is additionally important because it is also an important structural part of our brain, eyes, nerves, and cells.

Nutrova Complete Omega 3 contains a vegan-sourced DHA, making it ideal for vegans, vegetarians who do not consume much dairy and individuals with fish allergies looking to increase their omega-3 intake.
