Let’s talk about Omega-3.

Why take omega-3s?

Deciding to get healthy is an important and wise decision. It requires a great deal of planning and change in habits. Among these changes is the necessary inclusion of more nutrients. This doesn’t just include protein and good carbs, but also fats. We are taught to fear fat from an early age, but this fear is totally unfounded. Take the champion of all fatty acids, omega-3, for example. This is the one fat you don’t want to reduce. Not only are omega-3s essential to your body’s functioning, but omega-3s also have many benefits. Unfortunately, people are still unaware of the miraculous properties of omega-3s. It affects your entire body and can greatly improve your quality of life.

I can name 10 reasons why omega 3 should be consumed:

To fight against depression and anxiety;
To improve vision;
For the development of the brain of children and the fetus;
To avoid cardiovascular accidents;
For the improvement of attention and concentration disorders;
To help the metabolic syndrome (diabetes among others);
For autoimmune diseases;
To protect against inflammation;
To help with psychiatric problems;
For slowing cognitive decline.

Understanding the importance of fish oil is one thing, but choosing an effective, high quality, purified fish oil supplement is another.

Taking a low-quality fish oil supplement can potentially do more harm than good. Rancid or oxidized oils, high concentration of mercury and other pollutants found in fish often make it into the bottles of low-quality fish oil supplements.

Therefore, bioavailability and achieving consistent results will depend on the FORM of Omega-3s.

Orthomega® fish oil contains the triglyceride form, the “bioidentical” form resembling the natural oil found in fish. The triglyceride form has a vastly superior absorption profile as compared to the ethyl ester form commonly used in many fish oil brands.

Orthomega® delivers ultrapure, high concentration fish oil, ONLY in the triglyceride form. Orthomega® fish oil is purified, vacuumed distilled, and independently tested for both safety and purity, helping maintain cardiovascular health as well as helping support cognitive health.
