The Benefits of Fish Oil: Available at Vitacost.com!
Omega-3 essential fatty acids (EFAs) are polyunsaturated "good" fats found in oil from coldwater fish such as salmon, mackerel and tuna, or in seeds of flax, walnuts, hemp and other plants. They're classified as "essential" because your body needs them for complete health, yet cannot produce them on its own. They must be obtained through diet or supplementation. Omega-3 EFAs play an important part in cardiovascular wellness by helping to maintain healthy cholesterol levels, blood pressure and heartbeat. Omega-3 EFAs may also contribute to neurological, or brain, health. Because omega-3 EFAs can be converted into anti-inflammatory substances (prostaglandins and leukotrines), they're also believed to provide joint support, promoting flexibility, mobility and potential pain relief.

Vitacost is awesome. I have purchased my supplements from them some many years. Great products at an even greater price.
Thanks!

I agree on VitaCost, glad I found them. My first order was huge and everything was right, got here fast and was priced wayyyy below retail.

They are both essential for different biochemical processes in the body. Although men bio synthesize DHA less efficiently than women. so if your a guy, you gotta take that into consideration.

I heard comments about fish oil from two different extremes. 1st group of the people said fish oil is very healthy for just about every parts of your internal organs such as heart and brain and even our skin. 2nd group of the people were saying omega 3 doesn’t do any good to any of our body parts, it is just propaganda, don’t waste your money! There is a cardiologists even told me that fish oil may also increase your LDL if taking it too much. You have any thought or comment about both sides?

@lauls85
EPA is more important from what my chiropractor told me. He said it is best if you get more than 800mg of each EPA and DHA in your system – for you overall health. He said concentrated fish oil delivers more than just regular fish oil.
I have been using Vitacost for about a year now (my sister told me about it) and I love their products and what it does for my body!

@jennbroy Thank you for your replying. However, I also heard some health experts say DHA is more important to health than EPA.
