Super Omega-3 EPA/DHA with Sesame Lignans & Olive Fruit Extract - Life
Extension’s (60 softgels)
An abundance of scientific research substantiates the wide-ranging health
benefits including promoting a healthy heart, of omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil
and monounsaturated fatty acids-polyphenols in olive fruit.
Super Omega-3 from Life Extension® uses a patented EPA/DHA extraction process
that results in a pure, stable and easy-to-tolerate fish oil extract.
While most fish oil is distilled to decrease contaminants such as mercury and
PCBs, the Pure +™ fish oil used in Super Omega-3 is produced with a patented
method that purifies the oil with a highly advanced distillation process to
reduce pollutants to virtually undetectable levels. The result is an improved
fish oil that exceeds the standards set by international rating agencies.
Sesame Lignans Enhance Fish Oil’s In Vivo Effects
The unstable nature of fatty acids like fish oil limits their biological
efficacy in the body. Studies show that when sesame lignans are supplemented
with fish oil, the beneficial effects are augmented.
Sesame lignans help guard against lipid peroxidation, thereby extending the
stability of DHA in the body. These lignans also direct fatty acids toward
pathways which can help with inflammatory reactions. Super Omega-3 provides
standardized sesame lignans to enhance the overall benefits of the improved EPA/DHA
fish oil blend.
New Higher Potency Standardized Olive Fruit
To emulate a Mediterranean Diet Super Omega-3 provides a standardized olive
fruit extract to deliver the polyphenol hydroxytyrosol, a powerful Antioxidant
that protects normal LDL from oxidation and counters dangerous free
radicals. Research shows that a combination of olive oil and fish oil
supplements helps with inflammation better than a placebo or fish oil alone.15
Therefore, Super Omega-3 provides the equivalent polyphenol content of 6 ounces
of extra virgin olive oil.
Super Omega-3 provides a new, higher concentration olive fruit extract
standardized for hydroxytyrosol, tyrosol and oleuropein polyphenols. Research
shows the value of oleuropein in favorably altering gene expression, delaying
senescence in specialized skin cells, and helping maintain normal platelet
activation.
Super Omega-3 is a fish oil concentrate that contains a full-spectrum blend
of synergistic nutrients, providing a product of the utmost quality to produce
optimal effects.
