Essential fatty acids (EFAs) are nutrients that we must get from foods or dietary supplements. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in cold-water fish, support a healthy cardiovascular system and are important for proper brain development and function. Omega-6 fatty acids, found in borage oil, support a healthy immune system. Omega-9 fatty acids, found in olive oil, are not considered essential, but are still extremely important for health. They help support heart health and healthy cholesterol levels.

Directions

Adults take 2 capsules daily or as directed by a health care professional.
