Product Details
Omega-3s are vital for health, but the human body cannot make these essential fats, and they must be obtained through dietary and/or supplemental sources. EPA and DHA help support visual function and eye health, and support cognitive function in children and adults. (1,2,3)
EPA and DHA have been shown to help reduce serum triglycerides/triacylglycerols and support cardiovascular health, (4,5,6) as well as support those with rheumatoid arthritis, in conjunction with conventional therapy. (7)
Vitamin D3 is essential for effective absorption and use of calcium and phosphorus, to help build and maintain healthy bones and teeth. Calcium intake, when combined with sufficient vitamin D, a healthy diet, and regular exercise, may reduce the risk of developing osteoporosis. (8,9)
Each teaspoon of Crystal Clean from the sea Omega-3 Liquid provides 1000 IU of vitamin D3, 750 mg of EPA and 500 mg of DHA, in a natural triglyceride form. Triglyceride fish oil has superior stability, is less prone to damaging oxidation, and is highly bioavailable.
