FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Ethical Nutrients Hi-Strength Fish Oil is a pleasant tasting source of concentrated omega-3 fatty acids derived from fish oil. Just one standard metric teaspoon (5mL) of Ethical Nutrients Hi-Strength Fish Oil provides you with 2.7 grams of omega-3 (EPA and DHA).
This formulation is exceptionally high in eicosapentaonoic acid (EPA). Numerous scientific studies have confirmed omega-3 fatty acids, particularly EPA, have an anti-inflammatory effect which helps to relieve the pain and swelling associated with arthritis.
Evidence from scientific studies has also shown that omega-3 fatty acids slows the build up of atherosclerotic plaques, lowers blood pressure, reduces the risk of death, heart attack and strokes in people with known heart disease.
Omega-3 fatty acids inhibit triglyceride synthesis in the liver and so helps to lower fats in blood, therefore supporting a healthy cardiovascular system.
Ethical Nutrients Hi-Strength Fish Oil undergoes an advanced molecular distillation process in order to ensure cleanest and purest fish oil possible.
