WHAT ARE OMEGA 3’S?
Omega-3 fatty acids are a type of polyunsaturated fat that are essential for overall health and well-being. There are three types of omega-3 fatty acids: alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). ALA is found in plant sources such as flaxseed, chia seeds, and walnuts, while EPA and DHA are mainly found in fatty fish such as salmon, tuna, and mackerel. Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to provide numerous health benefits, especially when supplemented in the diet.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF OMEGA 3's?
✅ IMPROVED CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH
Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to improve heart health by reducing inflammation, lowering blood pressure, and reducing the risk of heart disease. Studies have also found that omega-3 supplementation can improve lipid profiles by lowering triglycerides and increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels. (Harvard Health Publishing, American Heart Association)
✅ REDUCED INFLAMMATION
Omega-3 fatty acids have anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce inflammation throughout the body, which may help reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and even cancer. (Nutrition Journal, Nutrients)
✅ IMPROVED BRAIN HEALTH
Omega-3 fatty acids are important for brain health, as they make up a significant portion of brain cell membranes. Studies have shown that omega-3 supplementation can improve cognitive function, memory, and mood, and may even reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.

✅ IMPROVED JOINT HEALTH
Improved Eye Health: Omega-3 fatty acids are important for maintaining good vision and may reduce the risk of developing age-related macular degeneration, a leading cause of blindness in older adults. (American Optometric Association, Nutrients)
✅ ANTI-CANCER PROPERTIES
ACV has been used as a natural remedy for various skin conditions, including acne, dandruff, and warts. This may be due to ACV’s ability to restore the skin’s natural pH balance and prevent the growth of bacteria.
