Omega-3 effects on viral infections
Rationale and design of the pragmatic randomized trial of icosapent ethyl for high cardiovascular risk adults (MITIGATE).
Low relevance to cold treatment
We examined the MITIGATE study, focusing on the effects of icosapent ethyl (IPE), a purified omega-3 fatty acid, in adults with cardiovascular disease at risk for viral upper respiratory infections.

With about 16,500 participants, this clinical trial compared IPE treatment against usual care. The goal was to see if IPE could lessen the severity and impact of viral infections over six months.

Unfortunately, there was no significant evidence found that IPE improved outcomes for upper respiratory infections in this group.

DHA/ARA reduces colds and allergies
The impact of early nutrition on incidence of allergic manifestations and common respiratory illnesses in children.
Relevant findings on early nutrition
We investigated whether feeding infants formula supplemented with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (ARA) could impact the development of allergies and respiratory illnesses until age three.

In a well-structured, randomized, double-blind study, we followed children who received either supplemented or nonsupplemented formulas during their first year of life. Our findings showed that those on the DHA/ARA formula had significantly lower chances of developing upper respiratory infections and common allergic diseases.

Notably, the DHA/ARA group experienced a delayed onset and reduced incidence of respiratory issues, indicating potential benefits of early nutrition on long-term health.

No more sinusitis
I’ve been taking this Omega-3 for a year and a half, and I find it exceptional. The optimal EPA and DPA ratio, along with vitamin D, means I have not caught a cold in over a year! Although I was exposed to the virus, my body managed to cope without developing a full-blown illness. Remarkably, I no longer suffer from sinusitis, which had troubled me for ten years. This change feels miraculous, and I’m thrilled with the results, including rapid hair growth.

Strengthened immunity
This quality omega-3 supplement is made from high-quality fish oil, coming in a package of 180 capsules with a good balance of EPA and DHA along with vitamin D3. It supports heart health, boosts immunity, and enhances circulation. My wife and I take one capsule daily, and during this time in our cold northern city, we've remained illness-free. I’m pleased with this product and recommend it to others for health benefits.

Less colds
Omega 3 has been a staple in my household for a long time. I find the advantages of this brand are remarkable, especially as it includes essential vitamin D3. I take one capsule daily from a 180-pack, which lasts the whole season when colds are prevalent. Previously, I struggled with the common cold and winter ailments like a runny nose and fatigue. Since I started taking Omega 3, I have felt a significant reduction in discomfort, dry skin, and lethargy. My friends and family also reported improvements in their health last season. The only downside is the large size of the capsules, which can be challenging to swallow.

More energy
I am very pleased with this Omega-3; it’s not my first time ordering from this brand. The high dosage, along with vitamin D, is a bonus. A large bottle containing 180 capsules lasts nearly two months for my family of three. After one month, I noticed increased energy and significantly fewer colds affecting my family, which is encouraging news!
