Measuring the Levels of EPA and DHA in Nutraceutical Oils
2013
Omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaeonic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) have been linked to several health benefits (1, 2). In 2004, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of the United States granted the qualified health claim of reduced risk of coronary heart disease on conventional foods containing EPA and DHA (3). In parallel, or perhaps consequently, the omega-3 supplement industry has grown as consumers strive to incorporate more EPA and DHA into their diets.
