Opti Omega - Chronic Disease Prevention

Opti Omega
Chronic Disease Prevention 

Opti Omega is an excellent source of essential omega-3 fatty acids typically lacking in people's diets. Omega-3 fatty acids, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), are essential for normal immune function, cardiovascular health, joint mobility, brain function, and skin health.

Omega-3 fatty acids are building blocks for immune mediators and regulate thousands of metabolic functions through prostaglandin pathways; through this mechanism, omega-3 fatty acids contribute to the formation of anti-inflammatory mediators. 

It is becoming widely implicated that inflammation is involved in a wide variety of pathologies, including cancer, heart disease, arthritis, immune disorders, neuronal degeneration, etc.

Thus, adequate intake of omega-3 fatty acids may help provide protection against inflammation, cancer, heart disease, and arthritis (Endres 1997; Simopoulos 1991; Sperling 1991; Endres 1991; Nkondjock 2003; Tapiero H 2002; Connor & Connor 1997; Davidson et al. 1997; Kremer 1996; Kremer & Robinson 1991). (see the Ingredient Information section for more detailed information)

Clinical studies have shown that omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil:

•Support cardiovascular health. Epidemiological and clinical trials have shown that omega-3 fatty acids reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease (Kris-Etherton 2002, Connor 1997).

•Decrease pain and tenderness in joint stiffness (Simopoulos 1991; Kremer 1996; Kremer & Robinson 1991; Kremer et al 1987);

•May be effective in protection against UV-induced skin damage, cancers, and photoaging (Rhodes et al 2003; Rhodes et al 1995; Rhodes et al 1994, Jackson 2002; Boelsma et al 2001);

•Promote normal DHA content in the brain, supporting mental capacity and mental health. The ratio of membrane omega-3 to omega-6 can be modulated by dietary intake, and this ratio influences neurotransmission and prostaglandin formation, processes that are vital in the maintenance of normal brain function (Haag 2003).
