Target and Objectives

Omega-3 fatty acids have many proven positive effects on cardiovascular diseases with several health claims approved. Ongoing studies focus on other possible health benefits, including eye health, cognitive function and mental health. The world foremost authorities in neuroscience warn that the new epidemic of mental illness and brain dysfunction is exponentially broadening due to inadequate long chain fatty acid intake. This leads to a cost to society higher than the cost of the worldwide obesity issue.
