Wild salmon oil is a natural source of omega-3 fatty acids, primarily EPA and DHA, which are known for their anti-inflammatory and cardiovascular benefits. Athletes use it to support joint health, reduce muscle soreness, and enhance overall recovery.
The oil’s high bioavailability and clean fatty acid profile make it especially valuable in physically demanding routines. It also contributes to brain function, mood regulation, and immune defense.
It is often preferred over farmed sources due to better purity and natural nutrient content.
