DHA (then often called cervonic acid) was identified as a major fatty acid in brain lipids in the 1950s.

1950s-1960s

Through advances in lipid chemistry, the structures of long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (including EPA and DHA) were progressively determined.

1970s
In the 1970s, Bang and Dyerberg showed that Greenland Inuit had markedly higher blood levels of EPA and DHA compared with Western populations. Their plasma fatty acid profiles were rich in EPA and DHA, reflecting a marine-based diet high in fish and seal. These observations helped initiate modern research into omega‑3 fatty acids and support cardiovascular health¹.
1981

Seven Seas expanded and moved into production of vitamin & mineral supplements, with Omega-3 (EPA & DHA) at the centre of everything we do.
