Omega-3 PRO (120 Softgels)

1. Omega-3 PRO (Solutex®)

Omega-3 PRO is a high-quality supplement that uses fish oil purified through advanced techniques (Flutex® and Cleantex®). It contains a higher amount of DHA (5:1 ratio vs. EPA) and comes in triglyceride form to maximize bioavailability (2). Moreover, Solutex® ensures batches are free of heavy metals thanks to dual testing, and Informed-Sport certification validates its safe use in elite competitions.

Format: 120 softgels (4 softgels = 2600 mg of Omega-3).
Certification: Solutex®, premium quality and Informed Sport, no banned substances.
Intended for: Athletes in all disciplines, the general population, pregnant women, and older adults.

2. Scientific Basis

Omega-3 fatty acids, especially DHA, play roles in anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and cardiovascular health processes (1,4). Taking high-purity Omega-3 at sufficient doses can help reduce post-exercise pain and improve muscle recovery (2,5). EPA helps regulate inflammatory responses, while DHA is vital for the structure and function of the nervous system (1,4).

3. Key Benefits

Muscle Recovery and DOMS Reduction

Omega-3 supplementation helps modulate inflammation and mitigate pain or soreness after intense training (2,5). This translates into a faster return to peak performance.

Cognitive Support and Brain Health

DHA is crucial for neuronal structure, improving reaction time and concentration in high-level athletes (4). It may also contribute to preventing damage associated with repetitive impacts (5).

Cardiovascular Health and Triglyceride Regulation

The EFSA recognizes that adequate Omega-3 intake supports endothelial function as well as the regulation of triglycerides and blood pressure (4). This is essential for maintaining performance in prolonged aerobic exercises.

Protection and Maintenance of Muscle Mass

Various studies report that DHA decreases protein breakdown during periods of inactivity or injury (1,3). This helps minimize muscle loss and maintain strength during forced rest or lower-intensity training.

4. User Profile and Sports

Omega-3 PRO is suitable for endurance sports (cycling, athletics, triathlon), strength and power disciplines (CrossFit, weightlifting, soccer), and team activities that require quick recovery. It is also beneficial for the general population seeking to support cardiometabolic and cognitive health (4). Backed by Informed Sport, it is equally recommended for elite athletes subject to antidoping tests.

5. Recommended Dosage

Standard Dose

Take 4 softgels daily (2600 mg of Omega-3) with meals that contain some fat to optimize absorption (2). You can take 2 softgels in the morning and 2 at night, or adjust according to the advice of a healthcare or nutrition professional.

Continuous Supplementation

To notice significant benefits in body composition or cognitive function, it is suggested to maintain intake for at least 8–12 weeks (2,3). The incorporation of DHA and EPA into cell membranes is gradual, so consistency is key.

6. Safety and Possible Side Effects

Omega-3 supplements are safe at doses of up to 5 g/day of EPA+DHA, without increasing bleeding risk (4). Occasionally, fishy-tasting reflux may occur, but it is minimized here thanks to Cleantex® technology. Natural antioxidants (vitamin E) are also added to prevent oil oxidation. If you use anticoagulants or have chronic conditions, consult your doctor.

7. Crown Sport Nutrition – Solutex® Quality Differentials

Guaranteed Purity

The raw material comes from small fish and goes through two separate tests to confirm the absence of heavy metals. This ensures the highest pharmaceutical quality (4). Additionally, we test each batch for heavy metals to confirm their absence.

Triglyceride (TG) Form

The oil is presented in natural triglycerides, a form that improves absorption compared to ethyl esters (2). This boosts the effectiveness of the dose and reduces oxidation risk.

Advanced Extraction and Processing

Flutex® and Cleantex® technologies allow thorough refinement and deodorization of the oil, preventing reflux and unpleasant odors. This is combined with Informed Sport certification, essential for elite athletes’ confidence.

8. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Why a 5:1 DHA-to-EPA ratio?

DHA has a prominent role in brain function, muscle recovery, and inflammation modulation (1,3). A supplement with more DHA can especially benefit athletes with high physical and cognitive demands.

Can I take it if I’m not an athlete?

Yes. Omega-3 supports cardiovascular and cognitive health in anyone (4). If pregnant or with medical conditions, consult a professional.

Does it interfere with other supplements?

No adverse interactions have been reported. In fact, it can be combined with multivitamins, proteins, or amino acids (2,3). Nonetheless, it is always wise to review your overall supplementation strategy with a specialist.

How do I avoid fishy-tasting reflux?

It is recommended to take the softgels with fatty foods and plenty of water. Additionally, Cleantex® technology significantly reduces this effect.

9. Suggested Use

Take 4 softgels of Omega-3 PRO daily with your main meals. For a longer-lasting maintenance of optimal DHA and EPA levels, follow the protocol continuously for at least 2–3 months. You can also adapt the dose upon your nutritionist’s recommendation, especially if you have higher needs due to training level.
