FOR YOUR EVERYDAY EXPEDITIONS

Amundsen OMEGA-3


We got inspired by the immense presence of the ocean filled with cold waters and fresh air nurturing the unique flora and fauna. Omega-3 is called an essential fatty acid for a reason – it’s vital for your body to function.

Omega-3 fatty acids are a type of polyunsaturated fat that is considered essential for human health. They play a crucial role in various bodily functions and are particularly known for their potential benefits for heart health, brain function, and reducing inflammation.

There are three main types of omega-3 fatty acids:

  1. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA): EPA is primarily found in fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, and sardines. It is known for its anti-inflammatory properties and its potential to support heart health.

  2. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA): DHA is also found in fatty fish and is highly concentrated in the brain and retina. It is important for cognitive function, brain development, and vision.

  3. Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA): ALA is found in plant-based sources such as flaxseeds, chia seeds, walnuts, and some vegetable oils. The body can convert ALA into EPA and DHA, although this conversion process is limited, and direct consumption of EPA and DHA is often recommended for optimal health benefits.

Omega-3 fatty acids are considered essential because the human body cannot produce them on its own; they must be obtained through the diet. Including sources of omega-3s in your diet can contribute to various health benefits, such as:

  • Heart Health: Omega-3s are known to help reduce triglyceride levels, lower blood pressure, and improve overall cardiovascular health.

  • Brain and Cognitive Function: DHA, in particular, is vital for brain health, cognitive function, and neurological development, especially in infants and young children.

  • Inflammation: Omega-3s have anti-inflammatory effects that may help reduce the risk of chronic diseases related to inflammation.

  • Eye Health: DHA is an essential component of the retina and is important for maintaining good vision.

  • Joint Health: Omega-3s may help reduce joint pain and stiffness, particularly in conditions like rheumatoid arthritis.

Given their potential health benefits, omega-3 fatty acids are often recommended as part of a balanced diet. If you're considering adding omega-3 supplements to your routine, it's a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional to ensure they're appropriate for your individual health needs.
