Each capsule contains 1,000 mg Salmon Oil
• About Salmon OilNutrina's Salmon Oil provides the body with essential fatty acids. The body cannot make these acids on its own, yet it needs them to produce hormones and other vital substances.• Omega 3Salmon Oil contains the Omega 3 essential fatty acid. Produced by plankton, Omega 3 exists in most sea creatures, especially in oily fish, such as salmon.• Superb Inuit Cardiovascular HealthThe Greenland Inuit people, living by their natural ancestral diet, are known to have almost no heart disease among them. Scientific interest in this observation has identified the fish oil from their ocean-water fish diet as the major factor in the superb Inuit cardiovascular health. These indigenous people consume up to 60% of their calories in fat, with a major portion of that fat coming from fish oil. The fish oil contains two very important fatty constituents, called fatty acids, which are, eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA for short, and docosahexaenoic acid, or DHA. Both belong to the omega-3 family of fatty acids.• Blood PressureAdequate levels of EPA and DHA are paramount to maintaining our cardiovascular system in good health. Different scientific studies on the oil of ocean-water fish have demonstrated that EPA and DHA reduce the "bad" cholesterol (the low density lipoprotein cholesterol LDL) and raise the "good" cholesterol (the high density lipoprotein HDL).These marvelous fatty acids assist in lowering blood pressure by helping to reduce arterial constriction. And if you already have low blood pressure, EPA and DHA will not drive it lower. They also help lower blood fat, known as triglycerides, which if too elevated will present significant risk for heart disease. Most heart attacks are precipitated because a blood clot wedges itself into a coronary artery in the heart, effectively ending blood flow to a critical segment of the heart muscle, causing it to die. EPA and DHA significantly reduce the risk of inappropriate blood clotting. Inappropriate blood clotting can also lead to stroke or pulmonary embolism, which can be life threatening like a heart attack.• Heart DiseaseThe focus on heart disease makes good sense since half of North American deaths are from cardiovascular disorders. Yet, EPA and DHA enhance the health of all other body systems as well. DHA is very important to the brain, retina, testes, and adrenal glands for facilitating optimal functioning. Inadequate DHA in the brain is thought to be an important contributing factor in many of its functional problems, including depression, and more recently, attention deficit disorder (ADD) has been tentatively linked with inadequate brain DHA.• Fresh FishEating fresh ocean fish like salmon, sardines, tuna, herring, etc. at least three times per week can also supply EPA and DHA. However if fish or their oils do not appeal to you, you can turn to flax seed oil, a land-based source of omega-3 oil.Flax seed oil provides linolenic acid, which needs to be converted by your body into EPA and DHA. For many North Americans, the conversion is difficult because of dietary habits. Dietary saturated fats, mono-unsaturated fats, trans-fatty acids, and cholesterol slow this conversion process. Deficiencies in vitamins B3, B6 and C, as well as magnesium and zinc, will stop the conversion until they are adequately supplied. The vitamins can be supplied in a daily fare of 5 to 9 servings of fresh fruits and vegetables, or by supplementation, but the magnesium and zinc should be provided with supplementation. The recommended dosage is 25mg of zinc gluconate or zinc citrate, and 300 to 500 mg of magnesium, each taken with meals.• Recommended AmountsThe recommended amount is 3 capsules of one gram each of the fish oil per day or as directed by a physician. If you're using flaxseed oil, the recommended amount is 9 grams per day with meals. Oils removed from their natural setting and processed are subject to oxidation. It is a good practice to complement your use of supplemental oils with vitamin E, which is a potent antioxidant, able to reverse oxidation of consumed oils and prevent oxidation inside the body. The recommended daily dosage is 400iu of natural vitamin E. If you are taking blood thinning medication speak to your physician before using vitamin E.• Salmon Oil BenefitsWhen used in supplement form or taken as the fish itself, fish oil has been found to have significant benefits on heart health including:• Altering the balance of blood fats in a favorable way• Reducing the likelihood of undesirable blood clotting• Make the heart less prone to irregular beating pattern• Reducing blood viscosity promoting blood flowSalmon Oil ReferencesFish consumption and coronary heart disease mortality in Finland,Italy, and The Netherlands.
