Cardiovascular Health: Omega-3 (EPA and DHA), Vitamin K, Potassium and Thiamin

Omega-3 EPA and DHA: EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA. In this collection you will find fish oil in softgels and mini gels, concentrated formulas such as Super Omega EPA and Ultra Omega-3, and liquid cod liver oil. Compare EPA and DHA amounts in Omegas & Fats.

Other nutrients with authorised claims: thiamin (vitamin B1) contributes to the normal function of the heart; potassium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood pressure; vitamin K contributes to normal blood clotting; magnesium contributes to normal muscle function. These claims apply only to products that provide at least 15% of the nutrient reference value (NRV) per daily dose — always check each product's table. See Magnesium and Vitamins and Minerals.

Vitamin D3 + K2: vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bones and to the maintenance of normal muscle function. If you take anticoagulants, speak to your doctor before using products containing vitamin K.

Other ingredients: coenzyme Q10, astaxanthin, resveratrol, sunflower lecithin, L-arginine, beetroot, garlic oil, cayenne and berberine have no authorised health claims in the European Union, so we describe them only by origin, form and amount per serving. Red yeast rice contains monacolins, whose use in supplements is restricted in the EU (less than 3 mg per daily dose) — check the composition and consult your doctor, especially if you take cholesterol medication.
