Schiff MegaRed Extra Strength Omega 3 45 Softgels

What is Omega 3 and why is it important?

Omega 3 fatty acids are essential nutrients that our body cannot synthesize on its own. They must be obtained through diet or supplementation. Omega 3s, especially EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), play vital roles in maintaining cardiovascular, brain, and eye health. Schiff MegaRed Extra Strength combines wild fish oil and Antarctic krill oil to offer a concentrated source of 700 mg of omega 3 per softgel, facilitating the daily intake of these important fatty acids.

Benefits of Omega 3 backed by EFSA

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has approved several health claims for omega 3s, provided specific conditions are met. With MegaRed, you can benefit from these recognized properties:

• Brain function: DHA contributes to the normal maintenance of brain function. This benefit is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg of DHA.
• Vision: DHA contributes to the normal maintenance of vision, also with 250 mg daily.
• Triglycerides: Omega 3 fatty acids contribute to the normal maintenance of blood triglyceride levels when 2 g per day of combined EPA and DHA are consumed.

MegaRed provides an effective dose of EPA and DHA to support these benefits. In addition, krill oil contains phospholipids that can improve the absorption of omega 3s.

How to choose the best Omega 3 supplement?

When looking for an omega 3 supplement, it is important to consider several factors:

• Concentration: The amount of EPA and DHA per dose. MegaRed offers 700 mg of total omega 3 per capsule, making it a high-potency option.
• Purity: Schiff guarantees the purity, freshness, and labeled potency of its products, subjecting them to rigorous quality controls.
• Origin: Fish oil comes from wild-caught fish and krill oil from the Antarctic Ocean, sustainable and contaminant-free sources.
• Form: Softgels are easy to swallow and are deodorized to avoid fishy aftertaste.

MegaRed combines the best of both worlds: the potency of fish oil with the bioavailability of krill.

Recommended dosage and use

It is recommended to take one softgel daily, preferably with a meal to facilitate absorption. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. If you are taking anticoagulant medication or have any medical condition, consult your healthcare professional before starting supplementation.
