The benefits of consuming fish oil every day

MANILA, Philippines - Fish oil, derived from the tissues of oily, fatty fish, has been found to be rich in Omega-3 Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA)/Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA), which are essential fatty acids naturally needed by the body to absorb essential nutrients and expel unnecessary waste products.

These oily, fatty fish do not actually produce DHA/EPA fatty acids, but instead accumulate them from consuming micro-algae that produce these fatty acids.

Research findings validate the importance of consuming fish oil every day. Since the essential DHA/EPA nutrients in fish oil are not naturally produced by the body, people are urged to include in their daily diet DHA/EPA-rich fish.

Not all fish are rich in DHA/EPA, though. Studies show that DHA/EPA-rich fatty fish are those that include deepsea fishes like mackerel, sardines, salmons, tuna and herring. Fish that are caught from shallow waters like rivers or lakes aren’t fatty, oily fishes that contain a lot of DHA/EPA.

To fully benefit from the brain health benefits of fish oil, these fatty fish should not be fried but instead grilled or cooked as a soup-based dish like sinigang to preserve the DHA/EPA nutrients.

The DHA/EPA in Australian brand Cenovis Fish Oil works on the cell level and enhances cell-to-cell communication, which carries out every important function of every organ in the body.

This supports studies that explain the alteration of cell membrane composition by fish oil. After the ingestion, fish oil is easily incorporated into cell membrane, which changes the cell membrane composition, altering the cell’s response to growth factor, hormones, antibodies, etc.

Cenovis Fish Oil, compared to other commercially available fish oil capsules that come from large fish like shark, seals, as well as cod liver oil, comes from the wild — small DHA/EPA-rich fish like sardines, mackerel, and herring that have shorter life span, making them less exposed to water pollutants.

Compared with shallow water or farm-grown fish, small fish from the wild are deepsea fish that have been found to be a rich source of essential DHA/EPA nutrients. 

Cenovis Fish Oil is also an all-natural fish supplement that is odorless and has no fishy aftertaste which is important among consumers as it was extracted from the Peruvian waters, one of the cleanest seas in the world.

The product also undergoes an eco-friendly production — after harvesting the small fish, they go to Norway which is known to be the best technologically in terms of extraction of fish oils. After the extraction process, the fish oil goes directly here in the Philippines for repackaging.

One capsule of Cenovis Fish Oil a day which should be taken along meals ensures the recommended dietary allowance for DHA/EPA, which is 500 to 1,800 mg per day.

To fully benefit from the health benefits of Cenovis Fish Oil, it is recommended to gradually increase the dosage. Cenovis Fish Oil is available at only 9.75 per capsule.
