Quest Triple Fish Oil contains the Omega-3 essential fatty acids EPA and DHA, which are important for cholesterol reduction and brain function.
Research has shown that fish oils can help in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease, dyslipidemia, arrhythmia and hypertension. Recent evidence links fish and fish oils to the prevention of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death.
Fish oils are also thought to increase the elasticity of blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more readily. This helps reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes from blood clotting.
Fish Oils have also shown some benefits including:
-Infant brain development where research has shown that DHA makes up 15-20 per cent of the brain mass and 30-60 per cent of the fat in the retina.
-Rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory disease
-Immune system deficiencies
-Also some promising research with fish oils is being done in the areas of kidney inflammation, lupus, asthma, multiple sclerosis, and cystic fibrosis.
