Omega 3 facts

There are actually 2 types of Omega 3...

  1. Long chain Omega 3 derived from fish oils such as mackerel, anchovy and sardine oils
  2. Short chain Omega 3 derived from plant oils such as rapeseed, flaxseed and soya oils

Long chain Omega 3 is about 10 times more effective than short chain forms.

Most people get plenty of short chain and not enough long chain Omega 3 in their diets (unless you're a fan of oily fish!).

You can increase the level of the most effective form of Omega 3 in your diet by consuming...

  1. Lots of oily fish such as mackerel, anchovies and sardines.
  2. Fish oil supplements.
  3. Foods containing added fish oils like Utterly Butterly Omega 3.
