Disclaimer: The omax3® Ultra-Pure™ omega-3 supplement, information and giveaway gift have been provided complimentary. I was provided with samples in order to review the supplement and provide my opinions. As always, my opinions are my own.
I have been taking omega-3 supplements for a number of years now but am always surprised at how many people don't know about them or what they do for your body.
I have tried a variety of brands but have not really settled on one brand up until now.
I think I have finally found one that I can stick with and I will tell you why.
omax3® Ultra-Pure™ omega-3 supplement is what I am talking about today. I think you are going to like it too.
Did you know that it is estimated that
only one in four Americans are getting sufficient amounts
of omega-3s from their diets, while getting an
overabundance of omega-6 fatty acids (see here for more info:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2b46yLkYOO4rel=”nofollow“) . Why is this? Aaah, so many reasons! Some people just don't like fish or can't get it locally..now fish is the prime source of EPA and DHA
omega-3s too. Other have serious concerns about seafood contaminants which is very reasonable thinking about all the pollution in the oceans today.
You might not realize that doctors recommend that those of us in the 75% who are not
getting omega-3s from diet should consider a supplement. But you really need to consider several
factors when choosing one. A group of Yale-affiliated physicians have developed
a clear choice: omax3® Ultra-Pure™ omega-3 Supplement.
How are omax3 softgels really different from other omega-3 supplements out there?
- · omax3 is tested twice for purity and is free of
contaminants, such as unwanted saturated fats, mercury, lead or PCBs
- ·
omax3 softgels are 91% (pharmaceutical grade)
purity, as opposed to most fish oil supplements which range from about 30% to
60% purity
- ·
The high quality control and purity of the
product helps reduce the incidence of “fishy burps,” a common complaint from
people who take fish oil supplements
·
The Yale-affiliated physicians who developed
omax3 reviewed a large volume of research pinpointing the differential effects
of EPA and DHA omega-3s; as a result, omax3 Ultra-Pure supplements were
formulated with an optimal 4:1 EPA/DHA ratio to help the body achieve the
maximum health benefit. Isn't that what we all want from supplements too--to get the optimal benefit?
·
·
The omax3 optimal ratio was found in studies to
help the body reduce triglycerides without raising bad cholesterol. It also
provides a better anti-inflammatory benefit over other omega-3 ratios. Higher purity means higher potency! One dose of
two omax3
· Ultra-Pure softgels offers doctor-recommended daily amounts of
omega-3—equal to 16 krill oil capsules, 8 1/2 egg yolks or 90 walnuts! That is a whole lotta omega-3 too!
So you want to find out how pure is YOUR omega-3
supplement?
There are a few ways to figure it out:
- You can use
this “Purity Calculator” to see exactly what your percentage of omega-3
fatty acids. Enter the values as shown, and multiply your answer
by 100. Let me know the results in the comments because I am really curious.
- Try putting your fish oil capsules to the “freezer
test.” Low purity omega-3 products will often turn white and cloudy when
placed in the freezer for 24 hours, but omax3 remains clear. That’s because
there are no saturated fats or other impurities in omax3.
Where can you find this high quality supplement? omax3 Ultra-Pure is currently available at
