Why EPA for Brain
EPA plays a supporting role in brain. EPA is the primary anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acid. EPA-dominant formulas (≥60% EPA) outperform DHA-dominant formulas for mood and depression in multiple meta-analyses.
What dose to look for
Clinical studies typically use 500–2000 mg of epa. 500mg minimum for general benefit; 1000-2000mg for mood/cardiovascular outcomes. Products below this range may not deliver meaningful results.
What the research says
EPA has strong clinical evidence for brain benefits. REDUCE-IT (n=8,179) showed 25% CV event reduction with pure EPA. Meta-analyses of 26 RCTs confirm EPA-dominant formulas superior for depression. Learn more
