Product Details
EPA-DHA 745 Blend is a high-potency, purified fish oil that is designed to meet your omega-3 needs. Fish oil is important for the heart, brain, bone, metabolism, and skin. Fish oil helps manage inflammation and may have a stress-reducing effect. EPA-DHA 745 Blend is a go-to supplement for exercise recovery and avoiding chronic disease.*
Description
EPA-DHA 745 Blend is formulated to provide a high concentration of EPA and DHA per softgel. There are many real-world benefits of getting the right amount of fish oil. From stress reduction to exercise recovery, the fatty acids EPA and DHA promote wellness when they are balanced in the context of a healthy diet.
Available in cold water fish, such as salmon or mackerel, EPA and DHA are omega-3 fatty acids that impact metabolic rate, insulin sensitivity, inflammation management, and your body’s stress response. They play a role in lubricating cell membranes for better skin and eye health. EPA and DHA are necessary for brain function and impact mood and cognition. They are also involved in the prevention of brain diseases, including Alzheimer’s.
Most westerners are deficient in EPA and DHA. Not only are they not getting enough fish oil from food, many are overloading pro-inflammatory omega-6 fats that compete with omega-3s in the body. This imbalance may be contributing to the obesity crisis and increased risk of chronic disease plaguing many individuals.
Benefits of EPA-DHA Fish Oil
Scientists first started studying the health-promoting effects of fish oil in the Eskimos who have a low rate of heart disease. Further studies show diets high in cold-water fish are associated with longevity and better health. Scientists theorize that EPA and DHA are incorporated into the outside lipid layer of cells throughout the body, allowing for healthier cells membranes and better metabolic signaling.
Clinical research shows the following benefits of EPA and DHA:
- Supports Cardiovascular Health*: Fish oil counters risk factors for heart disease, improving cholesterol and lowering blood pressure and triglycerides.
- Supports Cognitive Function & Mood*: DHA is vital for the brain, improving neurotransmitters that regulate learning. EPA and DHA also work together to protect brain cells from inflammation.
- Improves Metabolic Function*: Fish oil improves insulin sensitivity and blood sugar disposal into cells. It also increases metabolic rate, supporting the maintenance of lean mass.
- Eases Stress*: Fish oil calms the body’s response to physical and psychological stress.
- Improves Pregnancy Outcomes*: EPA and DHA are essential for growth and development of a fetus.
- Boosts Mood*: Fish oil balances brain chemistry, improving mood and reducing depression.
- Counters ADHD*: Fish oil improves attention and focus in children.
- Supports Athletic Performance*: Fish oil plays a role in powering exercise, ensuring muscles have the oxygen for maximal efforts.
- Promotes Muscle Repair*: Fish oil eases inflammation associated with intense exercise and may help reduce DOMS muscle soreness.
- Reduces Pain*: By lowering inflammation, fish oil may reduce pain, especially in joint conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis.
- Reduces Cancer Risk*: EPA and DHA may suppress tumor growth and improve death of cancerous cells.
- Improves Liver Health*: Fish oil supports metabolic processes in the liver, reducing inflammation that compromises liver function and leads to liver disease.
- Enhances Bone Health*: Fish oil supports bone building for better bone health with aging.
- Improves Immunity*: Fish oil improves the immune response via its role in regulating inflammation and the function of immune cells.

Quick Facts
Understanding Dietary Fat Ratios
Humans need several different kinds of fat for optimal health. Two of these, omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, are essential fatty acids (EFAs) and must be gotten from the diet. Our hunter-gatherer ancestors had diets that were fairly balanced between omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. However, the average diet has become very high in omega-6 fats from seeds and oils but low in omega-3s from fish.
Omega-6 fats compete with omega-3 fats for certain enzymes. Too many omega-6 fats effectively cancel out the positive effects of omega-3s, resulting in a variety of health problems, including insulin resistance, obesity, heart conditions, and neurological conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease.
Correcting the imbalance through food and supplements can be beneficial for the entire body. For people who don’t eat fish regularly, safe supplementation is critical. Taking several grams of a purified omega-3 blend can go a long way towards repairing EFA status.
Who Can Benefit From EPA-DHA 745 Blend?
- If you don’t eat fatty fish on a regular basis, you may benefit from supplementing with fish oil. Even if fish is a regular part of your diet, supplementation at higher levels may have therapeutic benefits.*
- Individuals who have high blood pressure, high blood lipids, or cardiovascular disease may benefit from EFA supplementation.*
- Aging individuals with low bone density, joint pain, or who are dealing with cognitive decline may improve outcomes with EFA supplementation.*
- Individuals with ADHD, depression, mood disorders, or other psychological issues, such as bipolar or schizophrenia, can benefit from Omega Complex.*
- Omega Complex may help restore metabolism in individuals with obesity or insulin resistance.*
- People who have a high degree of stress, particularly those with work-related stress or anxiety, may find Omega Complex beneficial.*
- Healthy fats may allow athletes and fitness-minded individuals to improve performance and muscle recovery.*
- Pregnant women need to ensure adequate fish oil consumption for healthy growth and development of the fetus. Supplementation with a purified fish oil may be particularly useful if you are avoiding fish due to mercury or other chemical contamination.*
Who Should Not Take It?
- Omega-3 fatty acids can have a blood thinning effect. They also lower blood pressure and can affect cholesterol levels in some individuals. Although the effects are rare, always speak to your doctor prior to supplementing.
- If nursing or pregnant, speak with a doctor prior to supplementing.
- If you are about to have surgery.
