Max DHA
Jarrow Formulas
Overview
Max DHA provides a substantial dose of DHA and a moderate dose of EPA from calamari oil, a well-absorbed source of omega-3s. The dosages align with established recommendations for various health benefits, particularly for brain and eye health. While a significant body of research supports the benefits of DHA and EPA, specific evidence on calamari oil alone is less extensive than general fish oil, though its phospholipid form may enhance absorption.
The Good
High concentration of Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) per serving, supporting brain and eye health.
Utilizes calamari oil, which is often rich in DHA and may have enhanced bioavailability due to phospholipid forms.
Contains a beneficial amount of Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) to complement DHA's effects.
The Bad
Potential for fishy aftertaste or burps, a common side effect of omega-3 supplements.
Individuals with seafood allergies must avoid this product due to the calamari source.
Requires caution for those on blood-thinning medications due to potential anticoagulant effects of omega-3s.
