Omega-3 fish oil contains more of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA than Cod Liver Oil and does not contain vitamins A and D. Lysi omega-3 Fish Oil capsules are a good alternative supply of omega-3 fatty acids for those who do not eat sufficient amounts of fatty fish. Extensive research has been conducted in many parts of the world on the effects of the omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, on various diseases. These include coronary heart disease, various mental disorders and arthritis. The US Food and Drug Administration has concluded that among those who have suffered the effects of coronary heart disease, the consumption of omega-3 fatty acids also have preventive effects on those who have not suffered from coronary heart disease. Clinical studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of DHA/EPA(in Omega-3) on cardiovascular diseases, lowering blood pressure, suppressing inflammatory reactions and reducing triglycerides in the blood. Lysi Omega-3 contains a generous amount of the fatty acids EPA and DHA but does not contain any vitamins so it is safe to take with Lysi Cod Liver Oil or multivitamin tablets containing vitamins A and D.
