For more than 30 years, Life Extension® has been one of the leaders in omega-3 supplements. They were also the first to show, with scientific results, that omega-3s play a role in heart function.
Super Omega-3 EPK/DHK Fish Oil with Sesame Lignans and Olive Extract provides pure, fresh fish oil from a sustainable source - South African anchovies caught off the coast of Chile. The fish oil has been rated with the highest 5-star rating by the International Fish Oil Standards (IFOS). The IFOS programme measures the quality of omega-3 products against global standards set by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN).
The IFOS assessment takes into account each of the following four categories:
Category 1 - tests the concentration of omega-3 in the product.
Category 2 - tests the number of toxins and contaminants such as mercury, PCBs, dioxins and furans.
Category 3 - tests for oxidation to assess the stability of the product.
Category 4 - tests for heavy metals such as arsenic, cadmium, nickel and lead.
A product will only receive the highest IFOS rating (five stars) if it scores well on all four categories. The IFOS rating is therefore a very useful tool for testing the quality of fish oil, ensuring its effectiveness and guiding users to the best choice of fish oil.
It does not burst after capsules.
Studies show that the Mediterranean diet, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, is considered one of the healthiest diets in the world. Numerous scientific studies have shown that omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil have a wide range of health benefits. But combining fish oil and olive oil gives even better results.
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) plays a role:
in brain function* (about 8% of the brain is made up of omega-3 fatty acids)
in the preservation of vision*
*The beneficial effect is achieved with a daily intake of 250 mg of DHA
Eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid (EPA/DHA):
play a role in heart function**
contribute to the maintenance of normal blood triglyceride levels***
** The beneficial effect is achieved with a daily intake of 250 mg of EPK and DHK.
*** Beneficial effect is achieved with a daily intake of 2000 mg of EPA and DHK.
(not to exceed 5000 mg of EPA and DHA per day)
The Super Omega-3 formula also provides olive extract, which provides as many polyphenols as 8-12 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. In addition, Super Omega-3 provides standardised sesame lignans to increase the stability of the essential fatty acid DHK in the body.
Life Extension is a three-time winner of ConsumerLab.com's Super Omega-3 dietary supplement awards and is ranked #1 among fish oil or omega-3 fatty acid manufacturers. BRAVO!
