Which omega-3 products can improve symptoms of depression?

Hi, I am a 25-year-old guy and I would like to know what are the best omega 3 to buy in case of depressive symptoms, mental fatigue, poor concentration and poor memory. Thank you



Dear Giancarmine, 

Several scientific studies have shown that a diet rich in omega-3s can be helpful in improving mood and decreasing depressive symptoms. In support of this, other research has suggested that an omega-3 deficiency is associated with increased risk of developing mood disorders, as reported on our blog.

The positive effect of omega-3 EPA and DHA is due to their ability to regulate the production of neurotransmitters, such as dopamine and serotonin, by brain cells, promoting mood balance, calmness and coordination. 


For all these reasons, the product I recommend is. Omegor Vitality 1000, an ultra-pure omega-3-rich fish oil-based supplement. Each pearl contains 420 milligrams of EPA and 210 milligrams of DHA in the form of triglycerides that are highly assimilable and digestible by the body. The recommended dose of Omegor Vitality 1000 is 1-3 capsules per day, taken at main meals. 


I remind you not to consider dietary supplements as a therapy, but only as nutritional support.
