It’s no secret that omega-3 fatty acids are vital for your overall health and well-being. In fact, omega-3s are one of the most thoroughly studied nutrients out there today. 

Our plant-powered omega-3 DHA, algae-sourced oil helps to boost the mind, body and heart. What about that less-than-ideal aftertaste we’ve all experienced with fish oil in the past? Nothing to worry about here. Our omega-3 DHA oil has a deliciously satiating citrus flavor that leaves no aftertaste whatsoever. 

But what are some of the top science-based benefits of omega-3s anyways? 

Some of the benefits include: 

  1. Fight depression and anxiety

  2. Support heart health

  3. Reduce inflammation

  4. Support healthy skin

  5. Improve bone health

#1: Fight Depression and Anxiety

Cognitive health is often overlooked when it comes to overall well-being, however, everyone can relate to suffering from a decline in their mental health at some point in their life. When it comes to mental disorders, depression and anxiety rank highest among the disorders we see today. 

Symptoms of depression include feelings of overwhelming sadness and loss of interest in life in general. (1) Could individuals that are experiencing depressive symptoms actually benefit from consuming more omega-3s? Some studies say yes. Yep, you read that right. Some studies have indicated that people who consumed omega-3s consistently were less likely to be depressed. (2) 

Individuals suffering from depression aren’t the only ones that can benefit from omega-3s. As it turns out, individuals who struggle with anxiety saw an improvement in their symptoms as well. (3)

#2: May Support Heart Health

Your brain isn’t the only part of you that can benefit from omega-3 consumption. As it turns out, omega-3s can help improve risk factors for heart disease as well. For centuries, omega-3 fatty acids have been associated with a number of positive health benefits in relation to heart health. What are some of these benefits? Well, for starters, omega-3s help reduce blood pressure. (4) 

Omega-3s have also been shown to increase HDL cholesterol, help prevent blood clots and reduce inflammation. (5,6,7) 

#3: Helps Reduce Inflammation

Inflammation in regards to heart health isn’t the only place omega-3s help out. But how? Well, omega-3s can help reduce the production of certain substances linked to inflammation such as cytokines. (8) Now, inflammation is not always a bad thing. It’s actually the body’s natural response to infections that could cause potential damage and harm to the body. It’s when this inflammation becomes chronic that it starts to become a problem.

#4: Improves Skin Health 

Did you know omega-3s can improve the health of your biggest organ? Yep, your skin. How is it so beneficial for our skin? Well as it turns out, DHA is actually a key structural component of your skin in the first place. Another omega-3, EPA, helps improve your skin as well. This specific omega-3 is responsible for managing the oil production of your skin, the hydration levels of your skin, the reduction of acne, the reduction of premature aging and more. 

#5: May Improve Bone Health

We’ve mentioned brain health, skin health and heart health. But what about bone health? Well, omega-3s can improve the health of your bones, too. Some studies have shown that the amount of calcium in your bones can actually be increased by consistently consuming omega-3s. 

Needless to say, if you aren’t getting enough omega-3s in your diet, you should start now. Check out our plant-powered omega-3 oil today.
