Marines Omega 3
Fatty acids are divided into saturated and unsaturated ones. The saturated fatty acids are the unhealthy ones and supposed to be avoided. Examples are: Bacon, salami, sausages, cream cheese and butter. However, especially polyunsaturated fatty acids are essential and therefore vital. The most valuable are the omega 3s and there are three primary omega-3s:
- ALA alpha-linoleic acid
- EPA eicosapentaenoic acid
- DHA docosahexaenoic acid
But alpha-linoleic acid offers limited health benefits compared to EPA & DHA which have been studied the most and have many vital, life-sustaining roles. Further humans can not produce omega-3 fatty acids, so they must be supplied within food. Consuming enough EPA and DHA omega-3s is important for general health.
EPA and DHA can be obtained from consuming cold-water fish, like salmon and tuna or from taking purified supplements made from fish oil, an excellent natural source of high quality polyunsaturated fatty acids such as omega-3 which on top seems to be the best suitable, because no one probable is eating cold water fishes every day here in central Europe.
The Swiss Federal Office of Public Health (BAG) advises a daily intake of 250mg of EPA & DHA. As of 1 Jan. 2014, the daily quantity will be increased to 500mg per day.
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and the Swiss Federal Office of Public Health (BAG) confirm the following health claim notices, based on scientific knowledge:
- DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal vision

- DHA maternal intake contributes to the normal development of the eye of the foetus and breastfed infants.
- DHA maternal intake contributes to the normal brain development of the foetus and breastfed infants
- DHA intake contributes to the normal visual development of infants up to 12 months of age.
