How to supplement fish oil

Infants, children and adolescents need to supplement unsaturated fatty acids, but it is not recommended to supplement them from fish oil capsules. Instead, they should supplement them from food normally, such as by using edible oil containing algal oil DHA to supplement DHA. For infants, children and adolescents, the number of brain cells after birth no longer increases with age. In order to expand the nerve cell network and enrich the brain cells, large amounts of DHA and EPA are needed. Supplementing unsaturated fatty acids also has the health benefits of improving memory.

Benefits of fish oil

1. EPA can unclog blood vessels: it helps keep blood vessels unobstructed, prevents blood clots, and prevents stroke or myocardial infarction; it removes fat accumulated in the blood, prevents arteriosclerosis and prevents the occurrence of peripheral blood vessel blockage.

2. DHA can improve brain function and intelligence: It is an indispensable material basis for the formation, development and operation of brain cells. It can promote and coordinate the conduction of neural circuits to maintain the normal operation of brain cells. For students and office workers who overuse their brains, appropriate DHA supplementation can enhance memory, concentrate attention and improve comprehension ability, while for the elderly, DHA supplementation can help activate thinking and prevent Alzheimer's disease.

Side Effects of Fish Oil

Generally speaking, taking no more than 3 grams per day is safe for most people (including pregnant and breastfeeding women) and will not cause any side effects of deep-sea fish oil. Taking too high a dose of deep-sea fish oil can make the blood less likely to clot and increase the risk of bleeding. Possible side effects of fish oil include belching, bad breath, heartburn, nausea, loose stools, rash and nosebleeds. Taking fish oil supplements with meals can often reduce the occurrence of these side effects. Certain fish, especially shark, mackerel, and farmed salmon, may be contaminated with mercury and other chemicals. Therefore, when choosing fish oil supplements, you should choose fish oil products with high purity and extracted from deep-sea pollution-free fish.
