TCC’s Fish Oil is a flavorless, odorless, non-toxic yellowish liquid that contains the omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Both are precursors of certain eicosanoids that are known to reduce inflammation throughout the human body, and are thought to have many health benefits.
The omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil are thought to be beneficial in treating hypertriglyceridemia, and possibly beneficial in preventing heart disease.
Fish oil has numerous practical applications for the primary care physician. Understanding the diverse clinical research of Ω-3 fatty acids and fish oil is important in determining its role in primary care practices.
Fish oil is used as a component in aquaculture feed. More than 50 percent of the world’s fish oil used in aquaculture feed is fed to farmed salmon.
TCC’s Fish Oil is used for the secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. One gram of fish oil has shown to reduce overall and cardiovascular mortality, myocardial infarction, and sudden cardiac death. Higher doses may be used for its potent triglyceride-lowering effects and for patients with rheumatoid arthritis to reduce inflammation. Ω-3 fatty acid supplementation of infant formula has shown benefit in infant neural growth and development. With the potential health benefits of fish, women of childbearing age should be encouraged to eat 1 to 2 low-mercury fish meals per week.

The omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil are thought to be beneficial in treating hypertriglyceridemia, and possibly beneficial in preventing heart disease. Fish oil and omega-3 fatty acids are being studied in a wide variety of other conditions, such as clinical depression, anxiety, cancer, and macular degeneration. Results of these studies are not yet conclusive.
Fish oil is also used as a component in aquaculture feed. More than 50 percent of the world’s fish oil used in aquaculture feed is fed to farmed salmon.

TCC’s Fish Oil is derived from the tissues of oily fish. It is a flavorless, odorless, non-toxic yellowish liquid that contains the omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Both are precursors of certain eicosanoids that are known to reduce inflammation throughout the human body, and are thought to have many health benefits.
Fish do not actually produce omega-3 fatty acids, but instead accumulate them by consuming either microalgae or prey fish that have accumulated omega-3 fatty acids, together with a high quantity of antioxidants as iodide and selenium, from microalgae, where these antioxidants are able to protect the fragile polyunsaturated lipids from peroxidation. Fatty predatory fish like sharks, swordfish, tilefish, and albacore tuna are known to be high in omega-3 fatty acid.
