Cardiovascular (CV) disease is any disease that affects your heart and blood vessels. A common form of CV disease happens when the blood vessels that supply blood to your heart become narrow or blocked. This is the main cause of heart attacks and heart failure.
Omega-3 fatty acids can help protect your heart and blood vessels from disease by:
✅ Decreasing triglycerides (a fat that enters your blood after a meal)
✅ Improving blood circulation
✅ Reducing blood clotting
✅ Decreasing your risk of strokes and heart failure risk
✅ Reducing irregular heartbeats
