Supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids promotes effective immune system response

NewsGuard 100/100 Score

Supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids promotes effective immune system response and has ameliorating effects on chronic inflammation (a condition caused by an imbalanced immune system that can lead to multiple serious illnesses over time), according to the most recent study published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (a division of the U.S. National Institutes of Health) on the effects of omega-3. It is for this reason that omega-3, in addition to playing a crucial role in human growth and brain development, may be highly useful in the prevention and treatment of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, ulcers, psoriasis, lupus, multiple sclerosis, and migraine.

The polyunsaturated fatty acids omega-3 and omega-6 cannot be synthesized by the body and must therefore be taken in as nutrition. Paradoxically, however, an excess of omega 6 may actually result in greater inflammation. This is why a healthy diet needs to achieve a proper balance between omega-3 and omega-6. Such is not currently the case in most American diets, which typically provide 14 to 25 times more omega 6 fatty acids than omega-3.

Typically standard fish oil supplements only have 30% omega-3 fatty acids and the same amount of saturated and monounsaturated (30% each), making their effectiveness doubtful.  

Supplements such as OmegafortSCC have 85% omega-3 content and are backed by studies that support that the higher the concentration the higher the effectiveness of the omega-3 supplementation on our health.

A single high-potency OmegafortSCC capsule provides amounts of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) which are four times higher than conventional fish-oil capsules.
