fish oil + flaxseed oil

Fish oil + flaxseed oil is a dietary supplement combination that provides essential fatty acids from both marine and plant sources. Fish oil is rich in the long-chain omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which have well-established roles in supporting cardiovascular health, reducing inflammation, and improving lipid profiles. Flaxseed oil contains alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a plant-based omega-3 fatty acid that can be partially converted to EPA and DHA in the body, though this conversion is limited. The combination aims to deliver a broader spectrum of omega-3s for heart health, anti-inflammatory effects, cholesterol management, and general wellness. This blend may be marketed as "omega 3 6 9" when other oils are added but can exist as just fish oil plus flaxseed oil[1][5][3]. These supplements are not suitable for vegans or vegetarians due to the inclusion of fish-derived ingredients[5].
