Why take an Omega 3 supplement for fertility?
Modern diets often lack sufficient long chain Omega 3s. Supplementing with Ultra Omega helps restore the balance of anti-inflammatory fatty acids, creating a healthier environment for egg and sperm development.
Derived from sustainably caught herring roe, Ultra Omega provides a high-quality source of DHA and EPA, crucial omega-3 fatty acids which are not synthesised by the body so must be supplied via the diet or as a supplement. The omega-3 fatty acids are bound to phospholipids – the natural form of fat found in the body, allowing for efficient absorption by the body as well as ensuring no fishy aftertaste.
The herring roe is also a natural source of choline, a key nutrient that forms part of all cell membranes in the body. Choline plays a particularly important role during pregnancy for foetal brain development.
Omega-3s are recognised for their ability to correct inflammation, a key concern for those dealing with conditions like PCOS and endometriosis. Additionally, during pregnancy, DHA contributes to the normal development of the foetus’s eyes and brain, highlighting its role in nurturing the next generation.
When should I start Ultra Omega?
Begin at least three months before trying to conceive to cover both the egg-maturation cycle and the 72-day sperm development cycle. Continue through pregnancy and while breastfeeding for ongoing support.
