Product Description
Many health experts and researchers believe that omega 3 fatty acids are the one essential nutrient most missing in our modern day western diet. Omega 3 Fish Oil provides both of the primary essential omega-3 fatty acids – EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), an essential long chain omega-3 fatty acid that is produced from EPA. DHA and EPA support the normal, natural restorative response throughout the body. In addition, EPA supports heart health and circulatory integrity, and may help maintain healthy cholesterol levels already in the normal range. DHA is found primarily in brain (our master organ) and nerve tissue and is essential for normal brain health.*
Know your fish oil!
Source
Our Fish Oil is derived primarily from Sardines (Sardina/Sardinella 9 different sub species names) and Anchovies (Engraulidae under 8 different sub species names) Sometimes Mackerel is also used. At times, Salmon (Salmon/Salmonidae 8 different sub species) are used to adjust the DHA content upward and Herring (Clupea/Clupedidae 6 of the 11 subspecies) are used on rare occasions to increase the EPA level. All fish used for oil in our products are caught in deep cold water channels in the Northern Atlantic and Pacific oceans. The fish oil used comes from ‘fish body oil’, which is primarily found in the flesh.
Purity
The specification for the mercury in the Fish Oil is a maximum of 0.005 parts per million or 0.005 mg/kg. There is one gram of Fish Oil in each softgel so the amount of mercury per softgel is guaranteed to be less than 0.000005 mg. The ppm will always be 0.05 ppm of the fill material. The molecular distillation processing of the Fish Oil removes any and all Dioxins that may be in the oil. Dioxin content is measured in a complicated TEQ system and the Fish Oil is guaranteed to meet all USA standards and the all new tough EU (European Union) standards. The EU standards are the toughest in the world. (Typically, Dioxins are more of a problem in Fish Liver Oils because they cannot be molecularly distilled as thoroughly).
Content
Our Fish Oil is guaranteed to contain 18% EPA and 12% DHA per softgel. The proposed CRN monograph for fish oils plans to allow an omega 3 claim on these two fatty acids only. Other than EPA (180 mg) and DHA (120 mg.) the total Omega 3 fatty acids are approximately 63 mgs per softgel.
