Did You Know? 1000kg of fish is needed to produce 25kg of fish oil! This oil may be contaminated with dioxins, heavy metals and polychlorinated biphenyls. Fish oil is therefore not a sustainable choice, and the final products are often esterified, and cannot be properly broken down by the body. VegOmega-3 is the cleaner, greener alternative.

Because your body does not produce omega-3, it is essential for you to supplement your daily intake. VegOmega-3 is loaded with health benefits:

• Heart health: Lowers the risk of heart attacks and strokes, reduces arrhythmia.
• Brain health: Omega-3 is needed to build cell membranes in the brain; it helps to guard the brain against Alzheimer’s disease, dementia and memory loss.
• Blood health: Omega-3 improves blood circulation, and helps to lower high levels of triglycerides (blood fat).
• Arthritis & rheumatism:  Both EPA and DHA work to ease stiff, painful joints; they are effective anti-inflammatories.
• Prenatal health: Taking an omega-3 supplement during pregnancy helps to boost mom’s health and promote baby’s normal development.
• Antidepressant: High levels of omega-3 in your daily diet helps to lift your mood and combat depression.
• Anti-inflammatory: Omega-3 has a potent anti-inflammatory effect, and can even help to improve the symptoms of conditions like asthma. It also reduces the pain and swelling of gout.

About Omega-3 and Omega-6:

Typically our intake of omega-6 fatty acids is too high, and it’s important to get enough omega-3s to prevent an imbalance. Omega-6 acids have many benefits (heart health, skin health, lowering cholesterol), but they are also pro-inflammatory. That means anti-inflammatory omega-3 is needed to prevent inflammation in the body. Research suggests that a 3:1 ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 is ideal.
