Pharmacological properties
CardioActive Omega-3 is a biologically active food supplement, a source of Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids - essential fatty acids that are not synthesized in the human body. Natural fish oil from Atlantic salmon is used for the production of the product.
Omega-3 PUFA is an essential component for the formation of blood cells, blood vessels, heart and brain. They provide cell membranes with such important properties as permeability, excitability, microviscosity. The speed of signal transmission between nerve cells, the degree of activity of the brain, the state of the retina and other vital processes of the body depend on the state of the cell membranes.
Omega-3 PUFAs are involved in the formation of eicosanoids, which support the rheological properties of the blood, the tone of the blood vessels and bronchi in the body. Eicosanoids play an important role in maintaining normal blood pressure, enhancing immune status, and maintaining normal mucosal health and composition.
Omega-3 PUFAs have a pronounced antioxidant effect.
Compared to conventional fish oil capsules, the fizzy drink has a significant advantage. Microencapsulated fish oil used in the production of sachets provides better absorption of Omega-3 due to its higher degree of bioavailability. In addition, the drink has a pleasant taste.
