What it is

Plain English.

What the supplement is, what it does, what it doesn't.

Omega-3s are essential polyunsaturated fats — EPA and DHA, found in cold-water fish, are the two biologically active forms. The body can't make them; diet alone rarely covers it.

Mechanism is older than the supplement aisle: EPA tunes the eicosanoid balance that drives inflammation, DHA is a structural component of cell membranes in the brain and retina. The cardiovascular outcomes data is the strongest — triglyceride reduction, blood-pressure modulation, post-MI secondary prevention.

Dose matters. Most over-the-counter fish oil under-doses. Aim for 2-3g combined EPA+DHA daily, split across two doses.

Outcomes

What the supplement delivers.

Outcome-led, not clinical jargon. The shape of the effect, in the language of the goal you're chasing.

Cardiovascular

Triglyceride reduction, modest blood-pressure benefit, post-MI secondary prevention. The strongest, longest-tenured clinical lane.

Inflammation

EPA competes with arachidonic acid as an eicosanoid substrate. Over weeks, the balance shifts toward a less-inflammatory state.

Brain + mood

Membrane structure in neurons is DHA-rich. Cognitive performance and mood signal is real but smaller than the cardiovascular lane.

Recovery

Inflammation-taming effect complements the protein + creatine stack. Users stacking omega-3 report subjective DOMS reduction.
