What is Fish Oil?

Fish Oil contains a powerful Essential Fatty Acid (EFA) known as Omega 3. It contains high levels of Linoleic Acid, which is converted into EPA (Eicosepanteanoic Acid) and DHA (Docohexaenoic Acid). It is a ‘good fat’ that the majority of us are lacking in, hence why so many people supplement with it.
