Indications EPA is a long-chain polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid with several key roles in the body: it converts to eicosanoids, which support cardiovascular health, immune function & inflammatory response, as well as correct cell signalling for optimal brain function. EPA & DHA are both important omega-3 fatty acids, but, when taken together in a supplement, compete with each other & effectively cancel each other out to leave very little of therapeutic value. Many research studies are now showing that when EPA is in excess of DHA, or where there is no DHA at all in a supplement, the greatest benefits are achieved.
