The long chain omega-3 essential fatty acids of DHA and EPA are the most lacking nutrients in the American diet, compared to what humans have traditionally been eating over the past thousands of years. Two new studies add to the overwhelming evidence that these fatty acids, especially DHA, are incredibly beneficial to cardiovascular health.

I have been touting the extreme cardiovascular health benefits of omega 3 oils for cardiovascular health, especially DHA, for over two decades. It is now official, mainstream researchers proclaim that these oils “show great promise in primary and, particularly in secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases."

Omega 3 fish oil (DHA) and phosphatidylserine (PS) are two types of fat needed for brain function and structure. Both are important for brain health, but when combined the effects are compounded.

Getting enough Omega 3 oils in your diet or through supplementation is essential to your eye and brain health, but also lung, muscle, and gut health.

DHA is the most biologically useful omega 3 fatty acid. The purpose of this brief review is to explain the extreme value of DHA to your health.

Researchers trying to figure out why those of lower socioeconomic status have greater rates of heart disease came upon the interesting discovery that they had a significant lack of essential fatty acids in their red blood cells (meaning they don't consume much dietary or supplemental DHA or EPA).

Omega-3 DHA- and EPA-dopamine conjugates induce PPARγ-dependent breast cancer cell death through autophagy and apoptosis.
