Double Heart System Omega-3 Liquid - Lemon, 150 ml

Doppelherz system Omega-3 Liquid is a liquid food supplement - sea fish oil with omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin E and D. High-dose fish oil as a natural source of omega-3 with a fruity-fresh lemon flavour.

• High-dose fish oil! 2.200 mg omega-3*
• Just 1 tablespoon daily - liquid with fresh lemon flavour
• EPA/DHA as a contribution to normal heart function**
• Vitamin D as a contribution to the normal function of the immune system

Omega-3 fatty acids are an essential part of a healthy diet and fulfil important functions in the body. Unfortunately, many people do not manage to cover their daily requirement of polyunsaturated fatty acids through their diet. Supplementing with fish oil can then be the solution

What makes fish oil so healthy

Fish oil is a natural source of the biologically highly effective omega-3 fatty acids DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), which fulfil a variety of tasks in the body:

• For normal brain function: DHA is involved in the formation of connections and the transmission of signals in the brain. The fatty acid contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function. This positive effect of omega-3 occurs with a daily intake of 250 mg DHA.
• For normal heart function: With a daily intake of 250 mg DHA and EPA, omega-3 fatty acids make a valuable contribution to normal heart function.
• For normal vision: Omega-3 fats support eye health as a component of the retina and photoreceptors: DHA in particular can contribute to the maintenance of normal vision with a daily intake of 250 mg.

Fish oil instead of fish: when is a dietary supplement useful?

It is undisputed that the most natural and sensible way to ensure an adequate supply of omega-3 is a balanced and varied diet with regular fish meals. However, the fact is that the majority of the population does not reach the daily dose of over 0.3 g omega-3² recommended by experts, and the supply of the important essential fatty acids is often not optimal.

If fatty sea fish is not regularly included in the diet - for reasons of taste, health or conviction - a fish oil supplement can be a safe and tasty alternative to achieve or maintain a healthy omega-3 level.

Doppelherz system OMEGA-3 LIQUID is ideal for anyone who wants to take omega-3 in liquid form and/or cannot swallow capsules.

A daily dose of just one tablespoon (7.5 ml) contains 2,200 mg omega-3 from valuable fish oil, combined with 20 µg vitamin D3 and 6 mg vitamin E.

People often fear side effects such as unpleasant burping when taking fish oil. Doppelherz system OMEGA-3 LIQUID scores points with its fresh lemon flavour. It can be enjoyed pure, in yoghurt or smoothies.

Fish oil, linseed oil, algae oil: the differences

At first glance, many people do not realise why omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil are preferable to those from most plant sources. After all, linseed oil, for example, is one of the oils richest in omega-3 fatty acids. However, there is one crucial difference:

Vegetable oils provide the omega-3 fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), which only serves as a precursor for DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and cannot be converted to a sufficient extent in practice. This is why the effect of fish oil in the body is different from that of linseed, walnut or hemp oil. These edible oils can enrich the diet in a healthy and sensible way, but alone do not guarantee a sufficient supply of highly effective omega-3 fatty acids for the health of the heart, brain and eyes.

The situation is different with certain algae oils: The microalgae Schizochytrium sp. is also rich in DHA/EPA and can serve as a vegan substitute source if you don't want to buy or use fish oil.

Cod liver oil and fish oil are often equated. In fact, they are two different products: Cod liver oil is made from cod liver, while fish oil is obtained from whole fatty fish species. The latter therefore has a slightly higher omega-3 content.

Healthy plus: vitamin D for bones, muscles and the body's defences

Vitamin D (cholecalciferol) is a multi-talent for our health: it contributes to normal bone maintenance and normal muscle function. It also contributes to the normal function of the immune system. This is because it influences the various properties of both the specific and non-specific immune system. If vitamin D is present in sufficient quantities, it can support the body's own defences.

Unfortunately, the "National Consumption Study 2008" shows that the majority of people in Germany do not have an adequate supply of this important vitamin. Around 82% of men and as many as 91% of women do not have sufficient vitamin D stores

One daily portion of Doppelherz system OMEGA-3 LIQUID contains 20 µg of vitamin D in the form of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). This corresponds to 800 I.U. (international units) of vitamin D3.

Cleverly combined: Fish oil + vitamin E

Vitamin E is a natural antioxidant, so it helps to protect cells from oxidative stress. As polyunsaturated fatty acids also react quickly with oxygen and oxidise, the combination with antioxidant vitamin E is also recommended in food supplements^.4

Each 7.5 ml daily portion of Doppelherz system OMEGA-3 LIQUID contains 6 mg vitamin E.

* The daily dose of 7.5 ml ** With a daily intake of 250 mg DHA and EPA, omega-3 fatty acids make a valuable contribution to normal heart function.
