We explored the effects of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on cadmium (Cd) exposure, a common pollutant that risks human health through the food chain. Our investigation focused on how DHA might help mitigate the harmful effects of Cd, particularly by looking at changes in gut microbiota.

The study involved examining mice that had been exposed to cadmium. We observed that DHA significantly boosted the amount of cadmium expelled in feces while reducing the levels of cadmium accumulated in various organs. Our findings highlighted a particularly encouraging increase in Parabacteroides, a beneficial bacteria in the gut that appeared to play a crucial role in this process.

We noted that the representative strain of Parabacteroides not only demonstrated the ability to reduce Cd toxicity but also helped repair gut damage inflicted by cadmium exposure. Furthermore, DHA effectively reduced cadmium levels in organs such as the liver, spleen, and kidneys, leading to a noticeable increase in cadmium excretion.

Overall, our results suggest that DHA may have significant potential in promoting the excretion of cadmium in instances of exposure. This insight offers a fascinating avenue for considering DHA as a supportive treatment option for handling heavy metal toxicity.

Cholesterol level improved
1 people found this helpful
I purchased cod liver oil for my mother, who has issues with cholesterol. After three months of daily usage, both her diet and exercise improved, and her cholesterol level normalised, which also helps reduce inflammation and the risk of heart disease. The taste is tolerable, and it provides a commendable amount of Omega-3 for regular consumption. The ingredients are sourced from non-genetically modified, free-range fish. The quality is exceptional, and the packaging is straightforward. Given its content and target age group, it is appropriate for the elderly, and I have noticed benefits for hair loss and dry skin after just two weeks of use.

Increased energy experienced

A massive jar! The capsules are large, yet they are easy to swallow without any aftertaste. The effect is impressive. After 3-4 days of consumption (starting with one a day), I feel a surge of energy. During busy periods, I took two a day, and I felt energised throughout the day. I was very pleased. Interestingly, I took it at night, and after taking it, my hunger vanishes (I’m usually very hungry in the evenings), making it easier to abstain from late-night snacking – this was an unexpected and delightful discovery.

Stomach discomfort noted

I believe that when I take this product alongside liquid collagen from another company, I notice a significant improvement in my skin health and tone. However, I often feel a bit queasy in my stomach after consuming it. I typically take it with food and alongside other vitamins such as Vitamin C, zinc, and CoQ10. When I take those supplements without the fish oil, my stomach feels perfectly fine. I plan to stop taking it on busy weekdays and reserve it for weekends when I can take it alone with no other supplements. P.S. The capsules are quite large.
