Your body naturally produces triglycerides, but too much can be harmful. Omega-3s slow down fat production by blocking certain genes that trigger excess fat buildup.

Instead of storing fat, your body burns it for energy! Omega-3s speed up fat metabolism, helping your body break down and use triglycerides more efficiently.

Omega-3s activate lipoprotein lipase (LPL), an enzyme that breaks down fat particles in your blood, preventing dangerous fat buildup in arteries.

Regular omega-3 intake boosts metabolism, helping your body burn fat even when you're at rest. A higher metabolism means lower triglycerides over time.

High triglycerides often come with inflammation, which can damage blood vessels. Omega-3s act as natural anti-inflammatories, protecting your heart.
