Essential Fatty Acids, which are good fats that are required in the diet, come as Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. The optimal dietary balance of Omega-6 fatty acids to Omega-3 fatty acids is 3:1. Unfortunately, the typical American diet, which is high in vegetable oils and saturated fats, is 10:1 or higher. While supplementing with fish oil is a reasonable approach to correcting this imbalance NanOmega3 offers many advantages over traditional fish oil supplements. The first advantage is the completely vegan formulation of NanOmega3. Additionally, NanOmega3 has no fishy taste or aftertaste, incurs no risk of dolphin kills, is completely sustainable, and has no risk of marine contaminants. Nutritionally, NanOmega3 not only supplies 1,100 mg of Omega-3 fatty acids, it provides the most balanced formulation of these fatty acids available. This formulation starts with 1,000 mg of the short chain Omega-3 ALA from flaxseed oil. The ALA can be converted to the long chain Omega-3 EPA. However, ALA is poorly converted to the long chain Omega-3 DHA. Therefore, NanOmega3 adds 100 mg of DHA from marine algae. Like ALA and EPA, DHA is a critical nutrient in cardiovascular health and anti-inflammatory response. However, it is only DHA that is vitally important to brain, nerve, and eye health as well. On top of this NanOmega3 includes synergistic nutrients such as Vitamin E, Vitamin D3, and B complex vitamins to help you reap the maximum benefit of the Essential Fatty Acids in NanOmega3. The SuperSorb® Enhanced Delivery System ensures that the nutrients in NanOmega3 are presented to you in the most bioavailable form possible. At OVitaminPro we confidently recommend NanOmega3 to our customers who are looking for an alternative to fish oils when shopping for an Omega-3 fatty acid supplement.
