Product details
Equazen liquid is an easy and convenient way to give your children a balanced intake of Omega-3 and Omega-6.
Only high quality natural ingredients are used to produce Equazen. Our oil comes from sustainable sources of oily fish, such as sardines, renowned for their naturally higher level of EPA. Independent testing ensures our oils comply with stringent EC purity rules.
The essential facts
Essential fatty acids, such as Omega-3 contribute to good health.* They play a role in almost every cell of your body.
Oily fish are a great source of the important Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. However, many people are not eating enough.
The Government recommends eating at least two portions of fish per week, one of which should be oily.
This specific combination of Omega-3 EPA and DHA together with Omega-6 GLA ensures a synergistic and balanced formulation to meet the body's individual needs.
* DHA contributes to maintenance of normal brain function. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250mg of DHA.
