- Purified deep sea fish oil derived from sardines and anchovies‚ providing you with a good source of DHA and EPA

- Rosemary extract‚ which keeps the product fresh naturally
- Natural lemon oil‚ which is added to mask the typical fishy flavor
Your body can greatly benefit from omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. These substances come from the healthy fats in your diet‚ but can also be taken as a dietary supplement. DHA and EPA are popular types of omega-3 fatty acids‚ while GLA is a common type of omega-6 fatty acid. They’re great for your brain function‚ and they can also help relieve pain by reducing inflammation.
It’s not always easy to keep your levels of essential fatty acids high enough. Since your body can’t produce them naturally‚ it relies on your intake. That means eating healthy foods—like albacore tuna‚ salmon‚ walnuts‚ flaxseed‚ pumpkin seeds‚ and canola oil—that contain omega-3 fatty acids. You can get omega-6 fatty acids from oils such as palm oil‚ sunflower oil‚ and soybean oil. If you usually don’t eat these foods‚ you can make up for it by taking a supplement.
Nordic Naturals’ ProEFA® has plenty of DHA‚ EPA‚ and GLA to allow your brain and body to function at their best. Its formula is designed to help lift your mood and make your joints feel less achy‚ all with a pleasant lemon taste. When you take the recommended dose of two soft gels‚ you’re getting 1‚000 mg of the following:
Each bottle of ProEFA® by Nordic Naturals contains 180 soft gel capsules‚ which should last for three months when they’re taken as recommended. You should take two of these soft gels a day with food‚ or as directed by your doctor.
Nordic Naturals strives to provide high-quality fish oils sourced from Norwegian Arctic waters‚ along with other supplements essential to life. All Nordic Naturals products surpass international pharmaceutical standards and are pure‚ fresh‚ and tasty. Research-based innovation is a priority for Nordic Naturals‚ and its efficient and potent products are often used in major clinical studies.

Wonderful for pain
I was told about ProEFA by Nordic Naturals from my homoeopathic practitioner for my fibromyalgia pain. It has been such a wonderful help to me. I have also started giving it to my mother and she has had the same experience. It is of course good for your heart and I would take it for that benefit alone but the added benefit of pain relief can't be denied. I have recommended it to so many people and no one has had anything but good things to say.
Pros
-
No nasty aftertaste easy on stomach good for my fibro pain.
Cons
-
Nothing!

ProEFA - Lemon gives my son the efas he needs as well as borage oil. ProEFA - Lemon helps eliminate his sensory problems associated with autism and also eliminates hyperacusis in his ears. He has no problem listening to the t.v. anymore. All the sensitivity to sound went completely away.

It works!

Nothing
