Omega-3 fatty acids are a form of polyunsaturated fat that the body derives from food. Omega-3s (and omega-6s) are known as essential fatty acids (EFAs) because they are important for good health. The body cannot make these fatty acids on its own so omega-3s must be obtained from food.
Omega-3 fatty acids have been found to be beneficial for the heart. Positive effects include anti-inflammatory and anti-blood clotting actions, lowering cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and reducing blood pressure. These fatty acids may also reduce the risks and symptoms for other disorders including diabetes, stroke, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis, some cancers, and mental decline.

Product Description Evening primrose oil is an important source of omega-6 fatty acids. The omega-6 fatty acids are precursors of prostaglandin series 1, which are responsible for a number of physiological processes in the body including inhibition of inflammation, activation of T-lymphocytes, inhibition of platelet aggregation and the general function of the endocrine and circulation systems.*The incorporation of omega-6 fatty acids into the diet of women, the elderly and those with chronic degenerative illness is often associated with an improved quality of life.* Recommended Use: As an adult dietary supplement, take 1 capsule 3 times a day or as recommended by a qualified health care professional. |
Product Description The Omega-3 fatty acids are naturally rich in eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and decosehexanoic acid (DHA). These essential fatty acids are vital to proper function of multiple organs and systems of the body, including the heart, brain, skin, endocrine and digestive systems.*Deficiency of omega-3 fatty acids is very common in industrialized countries despite the availability of food sources. Supplementation with this formula can be nutritionally beneficial in maintaining adequate reserves in the body, affording protection to the various organs and glands that rely on omega-3 for optimal function.* Recommended Use: As an adult dietary supplement, 1 capsule with meals, or as recommended by a qualified health care professional. |
