Omega-3 fatty acids

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fats that the body cannot produce on its own and must be obtained through diet or supplements. The most important ones are eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

  • DHA: Contributes to the maintenance of normal vision. This effect is achieved with a daily intake of at least 250 mg of DHA.

  • Fatty fish: Such as salmon, mackerel, sardines, and herring.
  • Algae oil: A direct plant-based source of EPA and DHA, suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
  • Fortified foods: Such as certain types of eggs and dairy products with added omega-3 fatty acids.
