• Have positive effect on cognition, memory, and attention span.(4)
• Support optimum learning and reading ability. (4)
• Improve signal transmission between brain nerves for optimum memory function.(7)
Positively Improves mood.Research has shown that an increase intake of EPA and DHA increases the volume of a brain area that controls mood and emotion. As building blocks of happy brains, Omega-3 helps to:
• Lift mood. (8)
• Improve overall emotional well-being. (8)
With age, nutrient absorption declines, impacting the brain’s DHA uptake and mental performance. (5)
Support healthier aging by consuming Omega-3 regularly to:
• Lessen risk of cognitive decline. (5,6)
• Promote and maintain normal brain function, especially memory. (5)
• Reduce risk of symptoms related to Alzheimer’s and dementia. (5)
• Promote healthy brain nerves and optimum signal transmission. (7)
Omega-3, specifcally DHA, is one of the key building blocks for brain.
• Supports healthy development of fetal brain cell structure, particularly in the third
trimester. (2)
• Supports better problem-solving skills among infants. (2)
• Enhances toddlers’ hand-eye coordination2 and intelligence. (3)
• Enhances attention span among infant and toddlers. (3)
• Supports development of sensory, perceptual, cognitive, and motor neural
systems during the brain growth period. (4)
