Faster recovery after sport - Progress Biotech

Sporting individual and DHA

DHA and EPA can play an important role for athletes. Omega-3 fatty acids contribute to muscle recovery after exercise.

This means that fatty acids contribute to a faster recovery. Better recovery contributes to better sport performance, but it has not yet been proven that omega-3 fatty acids also have a direct effect on sport performance.
