Omega 3

Omega-3s directly support cardiovascular health by lowering triglycerides, reducing inflammation in blood vessels, improving endothelial function (how well blood vessels relax and contract), and stabilizing heart rhythm.

Does it really work?

Yes. Clinical trials show EPA and DHA can lower triglycerides by 20–30%, modestly reduce blood pressure, and lower risk of arrhythmias. Prescription-strength omega-3s are even used in cardiology for patients with high triglycerides or prior heart events.

Can I get enough in real food?

Yes. Fatty fish (salmon, sardines, mackerel, anchovies) provide the most EPA and DHA. Plant-based sources like flax and chia contain ALA, but the body converts very little into the heart-protective forms.

Do I need a supplement for everyday health?

For most people, yes. Few adults eat enough fatty fish to reach protective levels of EPA and DHA, and low intake is linked with higher triglycerides and cardiovascular risk. A daily omega-3 supplement is one of the most impactful and reliable ways to support heart and vascular health.
