Key Super EPA 90c - NSF Certified for Sport Benefits
- Provides cardiovascular support with marine omega-3 fatty acids that help maintain the normal function of cell membranes in the heart and blood vessels.

- Helps maintain a healthy inflammatory response through EPA and DHA lipid signaling.
- Provides direct dietary EPA and DHA to complement omega-3 intake from foods.
How Super EPA 90c - NSF Certified for Sport Works
After digestion, EPA and DHA become available for incorporation into cell membranes, the flexible outer layers that help cells function and communicate. They also provide building blocks for chemical signals that help regulate the body's normal inflammatory response. Supplying these fats directly complements the small amounts the body can make from plant-based omega-3s.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid): Helps support a balanced inflammatory response by supplying building blocks for lipid messengers, including resolvins. EPA also becomes part of cell membranes, linking dietary fish oil intake with the way cells communicate during normal immune and inflammatory activity.
- DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid): Supports the structure and function of brain cell membranes. This omega-3 fat is concentrated in nervous-system tissue, where flexible membranes are important for normal cell signaling. Providing DHA directly supports the nutritional foundation of brain health without relying solely on conversion from plant-based omega-3s.
Super EPA 90c - NSF Certified for Sport Is Formulated For
- Adults seeking EPA and DHA to complement dietary fish intake.
- Active adults and athletes who prefer an NSF Certified for Sport fish oil.
- Adults seeking nutritional support for normal heart and brain function.
