Omega-3 fatty acids found in OmegaPure® are the long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA). These essential nutrients are typically found in fatty fish such as mackerel, herring and menhaden, as well as fish oil. EPA and DHA are vital for proper growth and development, metabolic processes and the protection of healthy cells.
Studies have shown that most people consume far fewer omega-3 fatty acids than the amount recommended by the American Heart Association for optimal health. And because many consumers don’t readily eat typical sources of omega-3, like fatty fish, consumers are searching for functional foods and beverages with this essential nutrient.
With an ever-increasing consumer demand and a $5.3 billion global market, food manufacturers can feel confident investing in the omega-3 functional food industry.
