CHallenge

The collective results of more than 2,000 studies suggest a positive correlation between a higher intake of EPA and DHA omega-3s and better heart health. However, the research is complex, and depending on the methodology, population, and dosages, some recent studies have not shown a statistically significant benefit of omega-3 intake on heart health. As a result, the media coverage and conversation around these studies cause confusion for consumers. Linhart PR needed to communicate the heart health benefits of EPA and DHA clearly, concisely and credibly.

Solution

Linhart PR produced and distributed an educational, social media-friendly video during Heart Health Month that summarized the key cardiovascular benefits of EPA and DHA. The video was deployed on GOED’s social media channels, and supported through a combination of social media advertising and sponsored social posts through partnerships with health and nutrition expert influencers.
