Omega 3

Now that you know you need omega 3, you may be wondering: what does omega 3 do to your body?

Omega 3 has all kinds of positive health effects:

• Heart: omega 3 has a beneficial effect on the heart.
• Blood pressure: omega 3 helps maintain normal blood pressure.
• Pregnancy and breastfeeding: omega 3 has a positive effect on the development of the child's brain and retina.
• Eyesight: omega 3 capsules have a positive effect on eyesight.

What is the recommended daily amount of omega 3 fatty acids? The Dutch Health Council advises adults to get 200 milligrams of omega 3 fatty acids per day.

The omega 3 supplements from Arctic Blue are a good alternative if you do not want to or cannot eat fish. Feel free to contact us if you want to know more about the omega 3 index test / ratio test.

Omega 3 fatty acids are ‘good’, polyunsaturated fatty acids. The best known are omega 3 DHA and omega 3 EPA. Compared to the past, we get less omega 3 because we eat less fish, and too much omega 6 through processed foods.

Many people also have a vitamin D deficiency, because they spend a large part of the day indoors. That is why it has been added to many supplements, so you can take omega 3 with vitamin D at the same time.

Would you like to know more about omega 3 and vitamin D, hormones, what it does, its function and when to take it? To learn more about omega 3, you can read our extensive blog about its meaning here.

Omega 3, what is it good for? Omega 3 is healthy. It has all kinds of health benefits. Fish oil / algae oil are important because of the long-chain fatty acids.

There are quite a few other foods (seeds, nuts, seaweed, avocado) that also contain a lot of omega 3, but unfortunately always alpha-linolenic acid (ALA).

The disadvantage of ALA is that this short-chain fatty acid has no function of its own yet, but serves as a building block for EPA and DHA. However, our body is only able to convert ALA to a very limited extent.

This also depends on all kinds of factors. That is why omega 3 supplements are a good way to get the right omega 3 fatty acids directly and benefit from the omega 3 advantages.

The Dutch Health Council advises adults to get 200 milligrams of omega 3 fatty acids per day. This is equivalent to eating oily fish once a week. The omega 3 supplements (fish oil or algae oil) from Arctic Blue are a good alternative if you do not want to or cannot eat fish. You can also opt for an omega 3 index test to check whether you are getting enough.

At normal dosages, no side effects of omega 3 are known. Complaints such as burping, heartburn, nausea or diarrhoea mainly occur with low-quality supplements. An intake of omega 3 that is too high (more than 3 grams per day) is not recommended. If you use blood thinners or have a medical condition, consult your doctor first.

The best choice depends on your preference. Always choose a transparent brand with a certification such as MSC and check for purity and origin. Algae oil is a plant-based alternative, suitable for vegans.
