Romega

Romega capsules deliver 1000 mg of omega-3 fish oil in an enteric-coated softgel, designed to bypass the stomach for better absorption and no fishy aftertaste. Packed with DHA and EPA, these essential fatty acids keep cell membranes flexible and support heart, brain, and joint health. They can help lower triglycerides, ease blood pressure, slow artery plaque buildup, and reduce risks of irregular heart rhythms, heart attacks, or strokes, particularly for those with heart concerns. The American Heart Association encourages eating fatty fish like salmon or tuna twice weekly, and these capsules help bridge the gap when fish isn’t an option.
