A.Vogel VegOmega 3 30 Capsule

What is A.Vogel VegOmega 3?

Source of omega-3 fatty acids and Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA) for the maintenance of good health.

Omega-3 essential fatty acids positively affect mental health and flexibility, healthy aging and vitality, cardiovascular health, blood circulation, inflammatory diseases, weight management, mother's health and child’s development, visual functions ie macula degeneration:

• Omega 3 fatty acids are necessary for building cell membranes in the brain.
• Blood fat [triglycerides]. According to a number of studies, Omega 3 can also cut elevated triglyceride levels. Having high levels of this blood fat is a risk factor for heart disease. DHA alone has also been shown to lower triglycerides.
• Cardiovascular health. Omega-3 fatty acids may reduce arrhythmias, and people who take Omega-3 supplements after a heart attack may cut their risk of having another heart attack. Omega 3's benefit of increased plaque stability may help reduce fatal and non-fatal heart attacks and strokes.
• Arthritis and inflammatory rheumatic diseases.  Studies indicate that EPA and DHA significantly reduced stiffness and joint pain. Omega-3 supplements also seem to boost the effectiveness of anti-inflammatory drugs.
• Depression. Researchers have found that cultures that eat foods with high levels of omega-3s have lower levels of depression. Omega-3 also seems to boost the effects of antidepressants.
• Prenatal health. EPA and DHA supplementation during pregnancy boosts the health of pregnant women and the development of their children. DHA appears to be important for visual and neurological development in infants with the result of better complex brain capacity:  eye sight, concentration, hand/eye co-ordination, problem solving behaviour and possibly less ADD/ADHD, dyslexia.
• Asthma. Evidence suggests that a diet high in omega- 3s reduces inflammation, a key component in asthma. However, more studies are required to demonstrate whether Omega-3's improve lung function or help reduce the amount of medication needed to control asthma.
• Alzheimer's disease and dementia. Preliminary research suggests that Omega-3s may help protect against Alzheimer's disease and dementia. Recent studies have also evaluated whether the omega-3 supplement DHA can slow the decline seen in those with Alzheimer's dementia or in age-associated memory impairment. One recent study showed that DHA can be a beneficial supplement and may have a positive effect on gradual memory loss associated with aging.
