Omega-3 fatty acids
The essential Omega-3 fatty acids are important for their cardioprotective properties, for maintaining healthy cognitive function including helping to support healthy moods, and for their benefits on joint comfort and flexibility.
The best food sources for your Omega-3’s are fatty fish like cod, tuna and salmon, but they are also found in some plant sources like flaxseed, walnuts and soybeans. If your diet is already routinely high in these foods you can safely skip supplementing with them, but supplements won’t hurt.
These Omega 3’s from Vitacost are distilled out of anchovy, sardine, and soy oils for maximum purity. Lower-grade fish oil supplements may contain traces of dioxin, mercury, PCBs and other environmental contaminants. You should take the recommended dose of two capsules per day of this Vitacost product unless as mentioned above you are already consuming Omega 3’s in your diet.
