Which product for a young person engaged in study and sport?

Dear Cristina,

To improve your son's psycho-physical stress response, caused by studying and a busy life, the product I recommend trying is Omegor Krill, a dietary supplement based on pure lipid extract of Krill, indicated in cases of stress and to support concentration capacity.

Krill oil contains omega-3 EPA and DHA in the form of phospholipids with anti-inflammatory effects, and Astaxanthin, a carotenoid with strong antioxidant power. The recommended dose is 2 capsules per day, preferably taken in the first part of the day (close to breakfast or lunch). The minimum supplementation period I suggest is at least 1 month. 

To stimulate physical performance during periods of increased training intensity, I recommend your son the product Omegor Twinefa which he can alternate with Omegor KrillOmegor Twinefa contains omega-3 EPA and DHA from fish oil and omega-6 GLA from borage oil, a combination with anti-inflammatory action that helps prevent and reduce inflammation of tendons and joints due to intensive training sessions or endurance sports. 

The combination of omega-3 and omega-6 is also useful to improve mood and sleep quality,also through the reduction of cortisol levels, the so-called stress hormone. The dosage for Omegor Twinefa is 2-3 capsules per day with a main meal.
