Our HIGH POTENCY FISH OIL CAPSULES give you 550mg EPA/DHA per 1000mg capsule. This is a much higher level of actives than most capsules will give you. 2 grams of omega 3 would only contain 18 calories. Almost all omega 3 ingested is used for essential body processes. Our Needs For Omega 3 As science investigates Omega 3 essential fatty acids, their importance to our health becomes more & more apparent. It is now evident that all aspects of our health are influenced by our intake of these precious nutrients, whatever our age. That is why they are now added to baby foods, & why the Government recommends we eat oily fish at least twice a week. Omega 6 & Omega 3 Balance Both omega 3 & omega 6 polyunsaturated fatty acids are classified as "essential" for health, & indeed, we need both in an intake ratio of about 1:1. Human evolution happened at a time when food availability was entirely different. In particular, there was a vast difference in the balance of fatty acids that were consumed. Our ancestors ate diets that consisted of about equal quantities of omega 6 to omega 3. This is probably why omega 3 has such an important role in human physiology. At that time, the meat that was eaten was free range, eggs came from free-range birds, coastal communities had free access to fish & more outside leaves of plants were eaten, (a rich sources of omega 3), while very few grains were eaten, (rich sources of omega 6). With the advent of agriculture, the feeding of livestock on grains, the reduction in fish eating &, latterly, the wide availability of convenience foods which feature grain & seed oils, the ratio of these two fatty acids in the diet has swung dramatically in favour of omega 6 & reduced the amount of omega 3. The ratio has gone from 1:1 up to 15-20:1 omega 6 to omega 3. Human health is struggling as a result, & clear links have been found to a wide range of mental & physical conditions as a result of this change. Ideally, everyone should have a minimum of 2-3 grams omega 3 per day (2, 000-3, 000mg/day). It seems that not many people achieve this level, especially if they eat little oily fish. The Beneficial Components of Omega 3 Fatty Acids When we ingest omega 3, our body breaks the fatty acids down to 2 other fatty acids
- Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) & Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), & these are the components our body uses for essential activity. Flax & other seed oils contain omega 3, whereas fish oil contains the preformed DHA & EPA in a form directly usable by our bodies. Doctors & nutritionists are noticing that some people are unable to efficiently break down omega 3 into the useful DHA & EPA components, which is why many people are now advised to supplement with clean, stable, whole body fish oils.DHA & EPA are used in the membranes in every body tissue where their presence has both a stabilising & anti-inflammatory effect on the tissue. These nutrients are particularly known for their benefits in the following organs & tissues: • Brain• Heart • Lungs• Skin• Fertility • Joints• Circulation

Flax may be new to the generation born after the Second World War, but its known history is very old & its use is probably much older. Flax was traditionally grown both for its fibre, which was woven into linen cloth, & for its seed, which provided omega 3-rich oils as well as other nutrients, & mucilage fibre for normalising gastro-intestinal function. Flax oil is the richest source of omega 3 in an edible oil. Nature's Own Flax Oil capsules contain cold pressed flax oil in a vegetarian capsule. Each capsule contains 500mg flax oil.• High in omega 3 • Cold Pressed • Suitable for vegetarians & vegans • Competitively priced ...

Fos-a-dophilus has become extremely popular among our practitioner clients. It is a highly effective pre & probiotic formulation in capsules. It contains 6 active strains of probiotic bacteria, plus the prebiotic fructo-oligosaccharides. This product is ideal for long or short term usage for those groups of people whose lifestyles and/or diets predispose them to digestive upsets. It is also good for the elderly to take on a regular basis. We recommend it for maintenance in people over 40 because it is high in bifido bacterium, which tend to be less easily regenerated as we get older. Lactobacillus acidophilus is also present, as this strain works in the small intestine. The product hence offers a wide range of strains that give support throughout the whole alimentary tract including the mouth & female vagina. In easy-to-swallow vegetarian capsules, a one-a-day dose is ideal for maintenance, whereas this can be increased to one capsule three times daily in acute situations. The form of this product makes it absolutely ideal for travelling or taking on holiday. It is suitable for children, & the contents of the capsule can be emptied into a little yoghurt or fruit juice if the capsules are too large for your child to swallow. Use Fos-a-dophilus:• If you have made changes to your normal dietary intake; • If you are travelling abroad, & therefore experiencing dietary & water quality changes; • If you are elderly ...
