PRO OMEGA ULTRA

Description

Natural Omega-3 and Omega-7
from Norwegian cod liver oil

Pro Omega Ultra supplies the body with high-quality marine omega3 cod liver oil, from Norwegian.
The natural fatty acid complex is rich in the essential Omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA.

Also provides other valuable fatty acids, particularly the important Omega-7 palmitoleic acid.

A daily dose (10 ml) contains:

845 mg docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)
625 mg eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)
380 mg palmitoleic acid (Omega-7)

With its high ratio of Omega-3 to Omega-6 fatty acids, Pro Omega Ultra can make an important contribution to improving the body’s Omega-3 balance.

All the fatty acids come in their natural triglyceride form (TG form), which promotes optimal use.

With a lemon aroma for a light, fresh taste.

All-round protection against oxidation

For maximum shelf life and stability:

The sensitive fatty acids are effectively protected from oxidation because the addition of the antioxidant vitamin E and because the bottles are filled under nitrogen.

Also contains natural astaxanthin.

High-quality Omega3 cod liver oil from sustainable wild-caught fish

The fish oil in Pro Omega Ultra is extracted exclusively from the rich livers of Norwegian cod (Gadus morhua).

Sustainable wild-caught fish

The cod are caught in the wild in the Norwegian polar sea. Our raw material supplier is certified according to the MCS environmental standard for sustainable fishing.

Rich in Omega-3

Wild-caught fish from cold waters are particularly rich in Omega-3 fatty acids. The fish can only survive there because their cell membranes are rich in Omega-3, keeping them supple even at Arctic temperatures.

Free of contaminants and heavy metals

Our omega3 cod liver oil undergoes a thorough cleansing process that reliably removes any and all residues.

Omega fatty acids in their natural triglyceride form

Fish contain fatty acids in the natural form as triglycerides. Most fish-oil products contain fatty acids in a synthetic form as ethyl esters (EE).
Artificial esterification allows higher Omega-3 concentrations. However, natural triglycerides are broken down much more quickly and efficiently in the intestine. They are therefore more bioavailable.

All the fatty acids contained in Pro Omega Ultra have been left in their natural triglyceride form (TG).

All-round protection against oxidation – optimal shelf life and stability

Polyunsaturated fatty acids are particularly prone to oxidation due to the double bonds in their molecules.

They spoil easily when exposed to heat, light or oxygen. To ensure a maximum shelf life and stability, therefore, special care has been taken to protect the fatty acids in Pro Omega Ultra:

Oxygen-free processing of freshly caught fish

The cod livers are processed immediately after being caught.

The oil itself is filled into bottles in state-of-the-art plants under a nitrogen atmosphere. This keeps oxygen levels very low during the production process.

Vitamin E: a natural protective shield

Pro Omega Ultra contains the highly effective lipid antioxidant vitamin E, in all eight natural forms (4 tocopherols, 4 tocotrienols) to provide a natural protective shield for the fatty acids.

Monthly dosage in two 150ml bottles

To minimise the time that Pro Omega Ultra is exposed to atmospheric oxygen after opening, we deliver the monthly dosage in two 150 ml bottles instead of in one 300 ml bottle. The brown glass bottles further protect the oil from light oxidation.

Fact sheet – Essential fatty acids

The body cannot produce essential fatty acids itself and must absorb them via food.

Dietary fats consist predominantly of so-called triglycerides, which contain three fatty acids.

The three fatty acids can take different forms: saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated. No natural fat contains only one kind of fatty acid. However, the respective ratios between the different types vary greatly.

Strictly speaking, only two fatty acids are essential for human beings:

• the Omega-3 fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid (ALA)
• the Omega-6 fatty acid linoleic acid (LA)

Both are polyunsaturated fatty acids.
Using alpha linolenic acid, the body can form all the necessary Omega-3 fatty acids itself.
These are mainly DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid). However, the synthesis rate is so low that DHA and EPA are also regarded as essential.

Among other things, linoleic acid is the basis for the synthesis of the Omega-6 fatty acid arachidonic acid, which the body needs in sufficient, but not excessive amounts in order to be able to trigger necessary inflammatory reactions.

Food sources

Alpha linolenic acid is a vegetable Omega-3 fatty acid, primarily found in nuts and in vegetable oils such as linseed, hemp and walnut oil.

By contrast, the main source of DHA and EPA is fish and seafood, especially fat-rich cold-water fish.
A high concentration of linoleic acid or Omega-6 is to be found, for example, in thistle, sunflower and corn oil as well as in cereals, meat and dairy products.

What does the body need DHA and EPA for?

Omega-3 fatty acids are present in all cell membranes. DHA and EPA are particularly important for the cardiovascular system, the development of the brain and for vision. DHA is the primary structural fat in the brain and the central nervous system. EPA is the base material for eicosanoids. Hormone-like neurotransmitters that are involved in the regulation of numerous body functions.

Omega-3 and Omega-6

Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids have opposite functions in the body. The organism requires a proper balance of both. There is often an overabundance of Omega-6 fatty acids in food. The ideal ratio of Omega-6/3 fatty acids is considered to be between 1:1 and 4:1. However, in most industrialised countries, the actual ratio is between 20:1 and 30:1.

How Omega-3 cod liver oil and vitamin E benefit your health

Omega-3 fatty acids

The daily consumption of 250 mg of EPA and DHA helps to regulate the heart‘s function.

Taking 250 mg of the fatty acid DHA daily helps to ensure the maintenance of a normal functioning of the brain and of normal vision.

A daily intake of 200 mg of DHA by mothers, in addition to the recommended daily dose for adults, contributes to normal brain and eye development in the foetus and in breast-fed infants.

A daily intake of 100 mg of DHA contributes to the normal development of vision in infants up to the age of 12 months.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E helps to protect the cells against oxidative stress
