Supports brain health and development
The brain requires omega-3 EPA and DHA for optimal health and function. High levels of DHA are used by the brain and it is essential for healthy foetal brain and nervous system development during pregnancy.1

Promotes eye health
Omega-3 EPA and DHA are required for healthy foetal eye development. In adulthood, these essential fatty acids are needed for the maintenance of healthy vision and to protect the health and function of the retina.2

Provides antioxidant support
Optimal Omega+ contains the antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthin, two of the most potent antioxidants belonging to the carotenoid family. Lutein and zeaxanthin provide antioxidant protection against free radical formation in the body, as well as free radical damage to cells.
The best evidence we have suggests that people who are not regularly eating fatty fish (twice a week), or are pregnant, will benefit by supplementing DHA and EPA - essential fatty acids that are important for brain and cardiovascular health. Optimal Omega+ has been formulated to provide an evidence-based dose of these omega 3 fatty acids from a sustainable source. The formula is strengthened further by the inclusion of lutein and zeaxanthin, plant phytonutrients, that have been shown in clinical studies to improve cognition"
