What is EPA Omega-3?
EPA, or eicosapentaenoic acid, is a type of long-chain, unsaturated Omega-3 fatty acid – characteristics it shares with DHA (also known as docosahexaenoic acid).
Our bodies cannot produce EPA by themselves, but EPA can have an important physiological effect, which is why many people choose to take Omega-3 supplements.
Fish oil produced from cold water fish is one of the main sources of EPA Omega-3.
What are the Benefits of EPA?
EPA may affect inflammatory processes, and it’s also proven to contribute to normal heart function, as well as normal blood function.
Which Foods Contain EPA?
EPA is naturally found in some varieties of oily fish, including:
- Tuna
- Salmon
- Mackerel
- Anchovies
- Herring
However, not everyone enjoys eating oily fish, and it’s also not the purest way to consume Omega-3 fatty acids. Depending on where the fish has been sourced from, it could also contain contaminants, including traces of metals and other toxins.
Omega-3 supplements can provide a purer, more convenient way to get the EPA and DHA your body needs.
