Orthomega Select DHA 60 Soft Gel Capsules

Everyone knows that in order to survive, you must provide your body with the fuel it needs to keep going. Proper nutrition plays a crucial role in the development of a healthy brain. However, in today's fast-paced world, many people often neglect their nutritional needs.

DHA and EPA are essential fatty acids necessary for proper nutrition. Essential fatty acids aren’t produced by the body itself, but support the metabolism. During the 1970s, researchers studied a tribe of Inuit people and discovered that, although the tribe consumed large amounts of fat in cold-water fish, their cardiovascular health was very good. It had been widely believed that consumption of any kind of fat wasn’t good for your body, but with these findings, researchers were able to conclude that not all fat is harmful. In fact, some fats (namely from fish oil) can actually make you healthier and help you live longer.

Just like humans, fish don’t synthesize DHA and EPA in their bodies; the algae and plankton they eat creates it. Most people are now aware that fish is good for them, but it's not always easy or convenient to add enough seafood to your diet. Fortunately, there are supplements available to remedy this dilemma. One of them is Ortho Molecular Products’ Orthomega Select DHA.

Each softgel contains both eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) to promote memory and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to support cardiovascular health. At the recommended dosage of one capsule daily, each 60-softgel bottle of Orthomega Select DHA should last for about two months.

Since 1981, Ecological Formulas/Cardiovascular Research has been formulating specialty supplements geared towards individuals with chemical sensitivities. Many of its products are also certified Kosher and/or independently lab tested.
