O3mega+, The Natural Choice For an Essential Fat Supplement

To guarantee your safety, all of the fish oils contained in each of theo3megaformulas are derived from wild, pure fish sources. These pharmaceutical grade fish oils are molecularly distilled and are strictly tested to meet the highest purity guidelines.

3 important reasons to trust theo3megaline:

1. Wild, Pure Sources - Highest Omega-3s



  • O3mega+ fish oils are derived from pure and wild sources including sardines, anchovies and mackerel.

  • These fish are among the highest in beneficial oils, and because of their short lifespan are cleaner and less likely to be exposed to toxins.

  • A wild fish source is superior, as farmed fish such as salmon, can contain much lower levels of the beneficial Omega-3 fatty acids.



  • 2. Unique Delivery System - No Fishy Odour, Taste or Aftertaste

  • O3mega's unique id SystemTMenteric-coating ensures the delivery of the fish oils to your small intestine for immediate and proper absorption.

  • This special coating also guarantees no fishy odour, repeat or aftertaste.



  • 3. The Cleanest, Safest Sources

  • All of the O3mega+ fish oils are thoroughly tested to ensure there are no pesticides, heavy metals (including mercury) or other dangerous dioxins.

  • O3mega+ fish oils are pharmaceutical grade and have been tested by The International Fish Oil Standards, administered by the University of Guelph.

  • In addition, O3Mega+ fish oils meet standards set by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Council for Responsible Nutrition, as well as the Environmental Protection guidelines.




Omega-3

Essential fatty acids are called "essential" because they cannot be biosynthesized in sufficient amounts by the human body and have to be taken in through dietary sources to allow normal metabolism. The omega 3 fatty acids that humans require are: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). The health benefits of Omega 3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA in particular, have been widely studied and are both numerous and widespread.

Fish Oil
Interestingly, the research studies performed on the benefits of fish oil are almost exclusively performed on fish oil supplementation and diets with high fish content. Fish and fish oils are probably the greatest source of EPA and DHA omega 3, long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. The mental health benefits of omega 3 oils are particularly attributed to fish oil supplementation. For more information on the benefits of fish oil, please click here.

Brain Health
The brain requires the largest amounts of omega 3 fatty acids of the whole body. In fact, the brain is nearly 60% fat by weight, and a large percentage of this is DHA. Omega 3 fatty acids have also been shown to have an affinity for the central nervous system, helping to treat and prevent cognitive decline, protect memory, treat depression, bipolar disorder, attention deficit disorders and schizophrenia. DHA has been associated with improved brain function, while EPA is associated with mood balancing.

Immune Regulation
These oils are also an effective treatment for a variety of autoimmune conditions, including SLE (lupus), IBD (irritable bowel disease) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Studies have also backed its use in osteoporosis, asthma, psoriasis, eczema, and other dermatological disorders, macular degeneration, PMS and prostate and colon cell growths.

Skin Health
Fatty acids are used in every cell in our bodies to make up their cell membranes. Taking in sufficient healthy fats can help the body to create new healthy cells to replace the old. This is especially the case with our skin cells, where new cell growth and proper cell moisture content make huge differences in the appearance and feel of our skin. Getting sufficient omega 3 fats can help to keep skin supple and smooth, and the immune regulatory functions of EPA and DHA can help to reduce inflammatory conditions like eczema, psoriasis and acne.

Contaminants
There are also legitimate concerns with the over consumption of fish, especially during pregnancy, in terms of high levels of contaminants. In pregnancy, methyl-mercury, which can cross the placenta has been shown to impair development of the central nervous system in the fetus. Fish often contains contaminants such as: polychlorinated bi-phenyls (PCBs) and methyl-mercury, which have a number of negative effects on health. That being said, reviews dedicated to health risk-benefit analysis of fish intake do state that the benefits of fish consumption often outweigh the risks. The exception to this rule seems to be the consumption of fish in pregnancy, although extremely beneficial, these women do need to be careful to limit their intake (6 oz./wk is the current recommendation) while pregnant.

Why can't I just eat fish and omega 3 "enriched" foods?
Many of us would much rather obtain as many nutrients as possible through food, as opposed to taking a number of supplements. This actually tends to be the aim of most naturopaths, with a few exceptions. Omega 3 is often one of those exceptions. As was previously mentioned, vegetarian sources are often insufficient for full health benefits. Fish can also be contaminated with a number of different harmful chemicals, limiting the amount we can safely eat. On the other hand, many foods are "enriched" with omega 3, such as eggs, bread, and milk. It is important to look at the doses that these foods contain, as they are often miniscule when compared with the dose required for health benefits. High quality fish oil supplements significantly reduce the levels of the contaminants currently found in fish, and are a healthier solution for most people that can provide the levels of EPA and DHA required to have health benefits. See below for more information.

How can I get more omega 3's?
Dosage recommendations for omega 3 fatty acids vary depending on the disease process or overall goal. If your goal is to lower your triglyceride level, for instance, it is recommended that you consume 3-4 g/day, whereas studies aimed at treating depression found that only 1 g of EPA/day showed better results than higher dosages of 2 and 3 grams. It is important to know that whatever dose you are recommended, you need to be sure your supplement contains the right stuff. On the bottle you will see the total omega content, as well as the specific contents of DHA, EPA, etc. If you have been advised to take 2 g of EPA + DHA/day, make sure you are looking at the breakdown and that you are following these numbers, rather than looking at the total omega count.
