Thanks to its extremely high dose of 500 mg EPA and 250 mg DHA per capsule, the 6d Omega-3 is the ideal supplement for athletes who do not regularly eat (enough) fish. Athletes who need a higher dose, for example during the healing process of a muscle injury, can also use 6d Omega-3.
Regular consumption of fatty fish, 1 to 2 servings per week, is recommended by international health authorities to promote overall health. This recommendation corresponds to a daily intake of 250-500 mg of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) + docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). However, not everyone likes to eat fish, and this also applies to athletes. Taking one capsule of 6d Omega-3 per day can prevent a deficiency of EPA and DHA if too little fish is consumed.
Despite the various metabolic, anti-inflammatory, immunoregulatory, vascular and cognitive effects of fish oil on the body, science is not yet sure whether intensive sport requires a higher intake of fish oil. Nevertheless, high doses of EPA (e.g. 2 g/day) are recommended in certain situations, such as during the rehabilitation process of a muscle injury. The anti-inflammatory effect, as well as the stimulating effect of EPA on muscle protein synthesis, can promote recovery from muscle injuries. In order to meet the requirements of such high doses, an exceptionally highly concentrated fish oil was used in the development of 6d Omega-3. Four capsules of 6d Omega-3 are sufficient to provide a dose of 2 g EPA. In addition, the selected fish oil in the 6d Omega-3 is highly purified and enriched with lemon oil to mask the "fishy" aftertaste often found in fish oil supplements.
Finally, the 6d Omega-3 also contains just enough vitamin E to prevent oxidation of the fish oil. Avoiding too much vitamin E supplementation is important due to the potential negative effects (of high intakes) of vitamin E on training adaptations.
Take 1 capsule per day or the amount recommended by your nutritionist. To be taken with a meal.
The product should be taken as part of a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Store in a cool and dry place.
