OMEGA MIND ADVANCED (100 Softgels) – A balance of both Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids necessary for normal growth, healthy blood, arteries and nerves.

Both Omega 3 fatty acids (EPA, DHA) and Omega 6 fatty acids (GLA) play crucial roles in maintaining optimal health. While EPA is generally recognized for its cardiovascular applications, and DHA is known to support brain development and learning, EPA and DHA occur together in fish oil, and should always be taken in tandem for their synergistic benefits. GLA (from borage oil) is a good complement to fish oils because they help reduce the synthesis of pro-inflammatory prostaglandins.

Nutritionists call omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids “essential” fats for good reason. The human body needs them for many functions, from building healthy cells to maintaining brain and nerve function. Our bodies can’t produce them. The only source is food.

These polyunsaturated fats are important for another reason. There’s growing evidence that they help lower the risk of heart disease. Some studies suggest these fats may also protect against type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, and age-related brain decline.

Omega-6 mostly comes as linoleic acid from plant oils such as corn oil, soybean oil, and sunflower oil, as well as from nuts and seeds. The American Heart Association recommends that at least 5 to 10 percent of food calories come from omega-6 fatty acids.

Omega-3s come primarily from fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel, and tuna, as well as from walnuts and flaxseed in lesser amounts.

This product was made in a GMP and ISO 9001:2008 registered facility.

DESCRIPTION
A unique mix of omega-3, 6, and 9 fatty acids plus conjugated linoleic acid to help rebalance fatty acid intake.

FUNCTIONS
This mixed fatty acid supplement supplies important fatty acids that are often difficult to obtain from the diet. Omega Mind Advanced was formulated to favor omega-3 fatty acids over omega-6 fatty acids to help maintain a healthy fatty acid ratio when added to typical diets that tend to be too low in omega-3. Omega-3 fatty acids are present as alpha-linolenic acid, an essential dietary fatty acid, as well as EPA and DHA, activated forms of omega-3 known for their ability to support a variety of physiological processes, including regulation of inflammation and lipoprotein metabolism, and brain and immune function. Omega-6 fatty acids are also supplied as gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), the activated form of omega-6 whose conversion from linoleic acid (LA) may be compromised by poor diet and other factors. Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a variant of linoleic acid, favorably influences fat metabolism and offers unique cell protective benefits. Oleic acid, an omega-9 fatty acid, is also present as a natural constituent of flax seed oil.
