EicosaPentanoic Acid
Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) is an omega-3 fatty acid. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) is one of several omega-3 fatty acids used by the body. It is found in cold-water fatty fish and in fish oil supplements, along with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Omega-3 fatty acids are part of a healthy diet that helps lower risk of heart disease. Increased intake of EPA has beneficial effects on coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, and inflammatory disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis. Most people in the Western world do not get enough omega-3 fatty acids in their diet.
Sources : It is obtained in the human diet by eating oily fish or fish oil— e.g, cod liver, herring, mackerel, salmon, menhaden and sardine. It is also found in human breast milk. EPA is available in fish oil capsules, along with DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). Some commercial products may also contain vitamin E to maintain freshness.

DocosaHexaenoic Acid
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an omega-3 fatty acid. Cold-water oceanic fish oils are rich in DHA. Most of the DHA in fish and complex organisms with access to cold-water oceanic foods originates in photosynthetic and heterotrophic microalgae, and becomes increasingly concentrated in organisms, as they move up the food chain. DHA is also commercially manufactured from microalgae. Docosahexaenoic acid in randomized trials did not slow decline of mental function in those with Alzheimer's disease. DHA was found to inhibit growth of human colon carcinoma cells.
Uses : Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder(ADHD). Because omega-3 fatty acids are needed for children's brains to develop properly, researchers have examined whether fish oil might reduce ADHD symptoms. So far, results have been mixed. One study showed fish oil might help, but many patients dropped out of the study before it was completed. Depression: Although some studies have shown that fish oil reduces symptoms of depression, it is not clear whether DHA alone has the same effect. Other studies suggest it may be EPA which has the positive effect on depression.
Heart Disease : Fish oil appears to have positive effects on existing heart disease. It also may lower the risk for developing heart disease. Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil help lower triglycerides (fats in the blood), lower blood pressure, reduce the risk of blood clots, improve the health of arteries, and reduce the amount of arterial plaque (which narrows arteries and causes heart disease). Infant Development: DHA plays a crucial role in the growth and development of the central nervous system as well as visual functioning in infants.
Rheumatoid Arthritis : Several small studies indicate that fish oil may help reduce symptoms and inflammation associated with rheumatoid arthritis. However, it does not stop the progression of the disease. |
