Research How to use

The benefits to our overall health from eating 140g oily fish each week are well known. However, eating the essential fatty acids found in oily fish is not always easy. The likes of DHA Omega-3 found in oily fish, not only acts as the building blocks of our body's cells but also helps to support the normal functioning of the brain.*'

Fatty acids are ‘essential’ because they cannot be synthesized in the body and therefore, must be obtained in the diet. Equazen can help bridge this nutritional gap. Equazen is used as a supplement of the diet, not to replace a varied balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.
