LPC Dosage: How to Best Take LYSOVETA® LPC for Optimal Cognitive Function

For decades, omega-3s have been praised for supporting heart, joint, and brain health. But despite their popularity, not much has changed in how we deliver these essential nutrients. Most supplements contain EPA and DHA from fish oil that were introduced years ago. Now, that landscape is shifting. A breakthrough in how omega-3s reach the brain is opening the door to a new era of targeted nutrition.

Aker BioMarine is a biotechnology company that specializes in harvesting and processing Antarctic krill. They’re a major supplier of krill oil and other krill-based ingredients for human health, animal nutrition, and aquaculture. They're also the developer of LYSOVETA® LPC, an effective delivery system for essential fatty acids, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). 

Fenix Health Science was the first supplement company to have LYSOVETA® LPC as an ingredient and is featured in our Omega™ product line. We love LYSOVETA® LPC for its superior absorption and because it's a more noticeable improvement than traditional fish oil supplements. 

If you want to get the most out of LYSOVETA® LPC, understanding the correct lysoveta dosage is important. In this article, we’ll guide you through everything you need to know about the best way to take LYSOVETA® LPC for beneficial results.

What is LYSOVETA® LPC?

LYSOVETA® LPC utilizes lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) as the molecular carrier to deliver omega‑3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, directly into the brain. This targeted approach ensures better absorption of these essential fatty acids in the brain compared to the untargeted delivery of fish oil supplements. As such, LYSOVETA® LPC is a highly potent ingredient in supporting attention and long-term brain health.

The LPC form of omega-3s ensures that DHA and EPA cross the blood-brain barrier. This means better delivery of omega-3s in the brain where we need them most to support our memory, mood, focus, and overall brain health.

What’s the Recommended Dosage for Accentrate® Omega Products with LYSOVETA® LPC?

Generally speaking, the correct dosage for Accentrate® Omega products depends on your weight and the product you’re using. Fenix Health Science offers several products containing LYSOVETA® LPC with different dosages:

• Accentrate® Omega (for children under 110 lbs): 1 softgel per day.

• Accentrate® Omega 110 (for adults over 110 lbs): 2 softgels per day.

• Accentrate® Omega Max (for individuals needing maximum absorption): 3 softgels per day.

Loading then maintenance: For the first month, many people benefit from a loading phase—taking an additional softgel per day to quickly build up omega-3 levels in the brain. After this initial period, following the recommendations above provides an effective maintenance dose for long-term support.

Why this matters: Studies show that LYSOVETA® delivers omega-3s into the brain more efficiently than traditional fish oil. Because of this faster uptake, a short loading phase helps saturate levels early on, while the maintenance dose is typically enough to sustain those benefits over time.

When Omega Max is the best fit: In some cases—such as individuals experiencing more severe challenges with mood, or those with genetic differences or reduced ability to absorb omega-3s—Accentrate® Omega Max is recommended not only as the loading dose but also as the ongoing, long-term dose to ensure optimal brain support.

What is the Best Time of Day to Take LYSOVETA® LPC?

There’s no strict rule on timing, but consistency is key. Many people prefer to take LYSOVETA® LPC in the morning with breakfast to ensure they don’t forget. Others may find it works best for them in the evening, particularly if they take it with dinner.

Should LYSOVETA® LPC Be Taken With or Without Food?

LYSOVETA® LPC can be taken with or without food. However, taking it with a meal that contains fat will improve its absorption even more since omega-3s are fat-soluble. Therefore, eating them alongside healthy fats helps your body properly absorb them.

If you’re taking LYSOVETA® LPC to improve brain health, adding it to a balanced meal that includes good fats like avocado, nuts, or fish can increase its effectiveness. This also supports heart health and enhances the omega-3s' ability to improve mental clarity.

How to Stay Consistent With Your Routine

If you want to maximize the benefits of LYSOVETA® LPC, consistency is necessary. Here are a few tips to help you stay on track:

• Set a Daily Reminder: You can do this on your phone or a physical note, but a daily reminder can help you stick to your routine.

• Take it with a Regular Activity: For instance, you can take LYSOVETA® LPC at the same time every day with your breakfast or evening meal.

• Keep the Softgels Visible: Place your supplements in a place where you'll see them regularly, like next to your coffee machine or by your toothbrush. Make sure they’re visible to you. Remember the saying, out of sight, out of mind.

• Track Your Progress: Mark your calendar or use a wellness app to track your daily dosage to help you stay accountable and consistent.

What Makes LYSOVETA® LPC Potent?

LYSOVETA® LPC uses LPC (lysophosphatidylcholine), a natural compound that acts as a molecular carrier to deliver EPA and DHA into our brain. Studies have shown that the brain absorbs these LPC-DHA and LPC-EPA formulations six times better than traditional fish oil (O'Connell et al., 2018). This property makes it one of the most targeted omega-3 supplements available for brain health. Our cognitive health benefits from the fast absorption of LPC-DHA and LPC-EPA.

The science behind LPC facilitates targeted delivery of omega-3s directly to our brain, which supports memory, focus, heart health, and overall well-being.

The Role of DHA and EPA in Brain Health

EPA and DHA are the most important omega-3 fatty acids for brain health. DHA is a structural component of our brain cells that’s crucial for maintaining cell membrane fluidity and functionality, which are essential for effective brain signaling and communication between neurons.

EPA, on the other hand, assists in supporting normal inflammatory response and mood stability. Individuals with mental health concerns often use EPA for its anti-inflammatory properties and its influence on mood. Our body's enzymes also use EPA to make a specific type of eicosanoid-signaling molecules that help with inflammation in the body and brain. Health practitioners recommend EPA to support mental well-being and a positive emotional state (Martins, 2009). It’s also been shown that when EPA increases in the brain, DHA also increases. 

The increased absorption of LYSOVETA® LPC omega-3s into the brain provides lasting benefits for mental well-being, attention, focus, and brain fog. Thus, the combination of DHA and EPA is important for optimal brain function.

The Science Behind LPC-DHA and LPC-EPA

LPC-DHA (Lysophosphatidylcholine-DHA) and LPC-EPA (Lysophosphatidylcholine-EPA) represent a significant advancement in omega-3 delivery. The LYSOVETA® LPC formulation uses LPC as a molecular carrier, giving these essential fatty acids a direct path into the brain.

The MFSD2A transporter in the blood-brain barrier actively recognizes the LPC-bound omega-3s and transports them directly into brain tissue. This highly efficient delivery system allows LYSOVETA® LPC to provide superior absorption and higher concentrations of DHA and EPA.

Which Vitamins or Nutrients Help the Body Absorb LYSOVETA® LPC?

• Vitamin D3: Works together with omega-3s to support brain and immune system health.

• B Vitamins: Particularly B6, B12, and folate, which support neurotransmitter production and cognitive function.

Magnesium: An essential mineral for brain health that helps in the absorption of omega-3s.

Final Thoughts

LYSOVETA® LPC is a great way to support brain health with better omega‑3 absorption. You can maximize the brain benefits by choosing the right product and sticking to a consistent routine. If you're a child, an adult, or someone needing maximum brain support, Accentrate® Omegas with LYSOVETA® LPC have the right formulation for your needs.
