Eicosamax by Klaire Labs is a concentrated, pure omega-3 fatty acid supplement. It contains 1,000 mg of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in their natural triglyceride form to help reduce inflammation, improve mood and cognitive function, and improve joint health.
EPA and DHA are essential omega-3 fatty acids meaning they must be obtained from the diet. Fatty fish and seafood contain the highest source. They are integral components of cell membranes, and are found in high levels in the brain and eyes. They also help fight inflammation, and support heart and joint health, and improve mood.
EPA and DHA are especially important for pregnant mothers as the fetal brain and retina require high levels of these omega-3s during growth and development.
Western diets generally contain too many omega-6 fatty acids in comparison to omega-3. Research suggests the optimal ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 is 1:1 however modern diets are closer to 1:10. Too much omega-6 fatty acids leads to inflammation, poor cell membrane health, poor cognitive function, and increased heart disease risk.
Eicosamax contains molecularly distilled fish oil that removes impurities and toxins including heavy metals. Independent lab testing results consistently report this processing technique results in an exceptionally fresh, clean, and high quality fish oil supplement.
Omega-3s are especially prone to oxidative damage from heat, light,and oxygen. That's why Eicosamax contains vitamin E in the form of mixed tocopherols. Tocopherols act as antioxidants to help protect the delicate omega-3 fatty acids from oxidation.
