Omega-3s and omega-6s belong to a family of fats known as essential fatty acids. The right balance of these two types of fatty acids is important for the healthy functioning of many parts of the body, including brain development. Unfortunately, because the human body cannot manufacture these essential fatty acids, they must be provided through diet. These omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are found in fish, and seafood, some nuts and seeds and green leafy vegetables.
In a well-balanced diet, both omega-3s and omega-6s should be present, however, in today’s modern diets, saturated fats and vegetable oils – all loaded with omega-6s – have become the dominating ones. At the same time, the intake of omega-3 fatty acids from fish have declined while modern farming and commercial food production methods have further stripped foods of omega-3 content to preserve shelf life. The ideal omega-6 to omega-3 relationship is quoted at 4 to 1, but in persons who do not eat fish twice a week two times weekly, experts believe that ratio is closer to 20 to 1, and responsible for many of the health problems we face.
With concerns about heavy metals and other toxins in fish, understandably people are concerned about consuming significant amounts of seafood. And yet, by not consuming fish, we all miss the opportunity to obtain important omega-3 fats in the diet. As a result, if consuming shorter-lived, non-predatory fish (anchovies, sardines and herring) are not a mainstay of your diet, supplementation with a high-quality omega-3 product may be the answer.
WINOmeg3complex™ is a pharmaceutical grade omega-3 ethyl ester concentrate which is obtained from purified fish oil. The basic material is crude deep-sea fish oil. The only adaptation which takes place is the conversion of triglycerides into ethyl esters. It is an environmentally-friendly procedure which assures the quality of multiple unsaturated fatty acids such as EPA and DHA. The only solvent that is used is CO, so the risk of contaminated solvents is excluded.
WINOmeg3complex ™ contains 88% omega-3 ethyl esters with a 60% concentration of EPA for maximum anti-inflammatory benefit, making it approximately three times more potent than most omega-3 supplements currently available.This high concentration and optimal EPA to DHA blend is enhanced with natural lemon oil in the soft gel capsule for great lemon taste. One WINOmeg3complex™ soft gel capsule supplies 540mg of EPA and 160mg of DHA. The ratio of EPA to DHA is 3.3 to 1; a balance many experts believe is optimal for good health.
