OptiMega-3 1000IU
Vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil are among the most powerful nutrients for improving overall health, and they are also among the most commonly deficient. EPA and DHA improve a number of cardiovascular risk factors, including lowering of atherosclerotic burden, reducing triglyceride levels and blood pressure, and improving platelet and vascular function. Vitamin D has also been shown to modify cardiovascular risk, and reduce the risk of several cancers, autoimmune disease, osteoporotic fractures, and overall mortality. EPA and DHA are essential to the resolution of inflammatory processes as well as tissue repair, by providing the substrates for anti-inflammatory prostaglandins, resolvins, and protectins, and vitamin D has recently been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects as well. Omega-3 fatty acids are incorporated into membrane phospholipids, affecting cellular membrane organization, ion permeability, intracellular signaling, gene expression, and the activity of membrane-associated proteins. EPA and DHA combined with vitamin D are likely to have synergistic benefits for improving overall wellness, as well as for preventing and treating a wide variety of cardiovascular, inflammatory, and autoimmune conditions.
Benefits
High dose of omega-3 fatty acids and Vitamin D allows for convenient once daily dosing
The pharmaceutical grade omega-3 blend is the only fish oil in the world to have achieved the highest USP standard verifying the quality and consistency of the fish oil
Stringent quality control standards ensure that this highly-purified fish oil concentrate is free from lipid peroxides and environmental pollutants, including heavy metals, pesticides, dioxins, PCBs and other harmful compounds
Omega-3 fish oil is sourced from wild anchovies, sardines, and/or mackerel, one of the best natural sources of EPA and DHA
Harvested through sustainable fishing practices
These small fish are less likely to be exposed to toxins because they are shortlived, and low on the food chain
Wild fish are superior to farmed fish as they not only have more omega-3s, but contain less saturated fat and no antibiotic or hormone residues
