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. 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.
