EPA and DHA for dogs
EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) and DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) are both Omega 3 fatty acids, which are found in cold water fish. Omega 3 fatty acids are an essential part of normal metabolism, but they cannot be produced naturally in the body so have to be consumed through diet or supplementation.
EPA and DHA are highly unsaturated fats due to them only containing six and five double bonds on their structural chains. Being unsaturated is an advantage as it makes it easier for the body to break down and utilise the fatty acids.
