NutraSea, the award winning omega-3 rich fish oil featuring industry leading quality and purity. Omega-3s provide benefits for arthritis, depression, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and a healthy appearance.
With
industry leading quality, NutraSea has become a favorite of consumers
and health professionals. NutraSea's high quality starts with the selection
of high quality fish from the herring family. The oil then undergoes
a proprietary purification process that achieves purity levels that
far surpass all international standards. To guarantee purity, every
batch of NutraSea is third party tested for heavy metals, dioxins, pesticides,
and PCBs. NutraSea is also 100% all-natural and offers 2-3x better absorption
than fish oil concentrates (ethyl esters). Furthermore, our proprietary
antioxidant formulation maintains product freshness 300% longer than
regular fish oils.
The NutraSea advantage:
What are omega-3s
Essential fatty acids (EFA): omega-3 and omega-6, are vital to the proper functioning of the body. Because our body cannot manufacture them they must be present in our diet. EFAs are necessary for healthy cell membranes, oxygen transfer, energy production, and are extremely important for the proper functioning of the body's electrical system. EFAs are also precursors to hormone-like substances called prostaglandins which regulate vital processes in the body. A balance between omega-3s and omega-6s is extremely important. Excessive omega-6 consumption promotes inflammation in the body. Omega-3s on the other hand actually suppress inflammation in the body.
The omega-3 deficiency
The average North American diet is severely deficient in omega-3 fatty acids yet excessively high in omega-6 fatty acids. Experts suggest a proper omega-6 to omega-3 ratio is around 1:1 but during this century the ratio has skyrocketed to 20:1 or greater. This imbalance is considered to be a major risk factor for the development of arthritis, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and other degenerative diseases that now plague the western world.
The two omega-3 fatty acids required by the body are eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Oils from fatty fish are nature's best source of EPA and DHA. Comparatively, flax seed oil contains a high concentration of omega-3s but in a form called alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). For the body to use ALA it must first convert it to EPA and DHA. This conversion process is very inefficient and results in less than 10% of the ALA being converted to EPA and DHA.
