What are Omega-3 fatty
acids?
Omega-3’s belong to a group of fatty acids known as long-chain
polyunsaturated fatty acids. Because the body does not
manufacture them, Omega-3's are classified as "essential
fatty acids" (EFA’s), as it is essential they be obtained
from food. There are three important Omega-3 fatty acids:
alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA),
and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). EPA and DHA are found
in fish, while ALA is found only in plant foods such as
flaxseed meal. The body can convert ALA into small amounts
of EPA and DHA, but recent studies have indicated that
our bodies are somewhat inefficient in this conversion.
Therefore, it is necessary to supplement your diet with
these nutrients in order to significantly change your
levels of Omega-3’s.
What do Omega-3
fatty acids do for the body?
The Omega-3’s EPA and DHA are recognized for their health
benefits in all life stages. They are important building
blocks for every cell in your body, which requires these
crucial components to grow, develop and maintain health.*
These fatty acids are an integral part of cell membranes
and are precursors of several important cellular messengers.*
Studies have demonstrated that EPA is important for optimal
brain function and contributes to the reduction of cellular
inflammation.* DHA has been recognized for brain, visual
and nervous system health and development.* Additionally,
these essential fatty acids work together to contribute
to good heart health.*
What is the
richest source of Omega-3 fatty acids?
Fish oil is the richest source for eicosapentaenoic
acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Cold-water
fish, like anchovies, salmon, sardines, tuna and herring,
are considered the best source for these essential fatty
acids. It is important to remember, that all omega-3's
are not created equal. You would need almost four
tablespoons of flaxseed oil to get the same amount
of EPA and DHA found in one teaspoon of Sealogix!
That's approximately ten times as much flaxseed oil than
fish oil.
Why should I take a fish
oil supplement?
Changes in food preferences and the impact of modern food
processing in Western society have led to a significant
decrease in average dietary intake of Omega-3 fatty acids.
As a result, most American diets contain far more Omega-6’s
than Omega-3’s. In fact, it is estimated that the average
American has between twenty to fifty times the amount
of Omega-6’s as they do Omega-3’s. Recent studies have
indicated that this kind of imbalance can set the stage
for a host of health problems. To promote a healthier
fatty acid ratio, it is advisable to avoid Omega-6’s (which
are commonly found in fried foods, commercial baked goods
and some margarines), and eat more baked or broiled seafood
and supplement the diet with a high-quality fish oil like
Sealogix.
What are the health benefits
associated with taking Omega-3 EFA’s from fish oil?
Scientific evidence has indicated that a diet rich in
Omega-3 essential fatty acids helps support:
- A Healthy Brain
- A Healthy Heart
- A Healthy immune system
- Healthy joint movement
- Healthy kidneys
- A balanced mood and sense of wellbeing
- Strength and stamina
- And helps maintain cholesterol levels that are
already within the normal range*

to review our extensive research section, which provides
summaries of recent scientific inquiries into the health
benefits of omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil.
Why does purity matter with regard to fish
oil?
Unfortunately, pollution has affected the water quality
of all of our oceans. The contaminants in our waters
include toxins like mercury, PCB’s, arsenic, lead and
cadmium. Consequently, many fish now contain these undesirable
elements. That is why it is very important to choose
a fish oil that is molecularly distilled. Molecular
distillation is a process that concentrates and purifies
the fish oil, removing the contaminants. It is also
important to select a fish oil product that is tested
for concentration, toxicity and safety by an independent
third party. Supplementing your diet with a pharmaceutical-grade
fish oil like Sealogix allows you to get the additional
Omega-3 fatty acids you need without worrying about
the presence of harmful levels of pollutants.
I’ve researched many fish oil supplements.
What makes Sealogix better?
Sealogix is an ultra-refined, ultra-concentrated, pharmaceutical-grade
fish oil awarded an IFOS 5-Star rating for purity and
concentration. Because Sealogix is ultra-refined, you
can feel confident you are ingesting one of the purest
fish oils available. And because Sealogix is ultra-concentrated,
you receive more Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA for
your money. We invite you to compare Sealogix to other
popular brands of fish oil currently on the market.
We think you’ll agree that our product represents an
exceptional value.
What is IFOS and what does a “5-Star Rating”
mean?
IFOS (International Fish Oil Standards) is a division
of Nutrasource Diagnostics, Inc., that provides independent,
third-party testing for our Sealogix Omega-3 Pharmaceutical-Grade
Fish Oil products. IFOS testing judges the quality,
purity and concentration of fish oil, based upon the
international standards established by the World Health
Organization and the Council for Responsible Nutrition.
Our rating lets you know that Sealogix is of the highest
quality available on the market today – there is no
better rating than a 5-Star.
Do you guarantee freshness and purity?
Yes. When you order Sealogix, we promise to deliver
the highest-quality products in excellent condition,
right to your front door. If for any reason your purchase
does not meet with your satisfaction, we will gladly
replace the product or refund your money (excluding
delivery charges). For detailed information on our return
policy, please see the invoice included in your shipment.
How much Sealogix should I take?
The suggested serving for a healthy adult is four Sealogix
capsules daily or one teaspoon of Sealogix liquid supplement
daily. Always consult your health care provider for
additional guidance on how Omega-3 fatty acids from
fish oil can benefit your personal health profile.
What’s the best way to store Sealogix?
For maximum freshness, store in a cool, dry place between
58 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit.
I’ve heard that some fish oils don’t taste
very good. What does the liquid Sealogix taste like?
Sealogix liquid fish oil is virtually
tasteless and has a slight citrus flavor. |
