Fish oil is an important source of essential fatty acids that can be derived only from the diet, especially omega-3 fatty acids. Since omega-6 fatty acids tend to be predominant in the western diet, supplementing with omega-3 fatty acids helps to mediate inflammatory pathways and maintain cell structure, fluidity, and function. Although there are several sources of omega-3 fatty acids, fish oil is naturally able to provide a 2:1 ratio of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) respectively, a ratio that has been used in majority of clinical trials and shown various health benefits. Due to their anti-inflammatory function, omega-3 fatty acids are beneficial in reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as arrhythmias, hyperlipidemia, and thrombosis. DHA deficiency has been associated with impaired neurotransmission and synaptic activity. DHA supplementation has been recommended for fetal brain development and through infancy to promote optimal brain, eyes, and nervous system development and function and support cognitive and mental health.
Trident SAP 20:10 provides the optimum dose and ratio of EPA and DHA in triglyceride form (TG) for overall maintenance of good health.
