Product Description
Super Omega-3 EPA/DHA with Sesame Lignans Olive Fruit Extract120 softgelsItem Catalog Number: 982 Studies associate the Mediterranean diet, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, olive oil, and antioxidant-rich fruits, vegetables, and herbs, with lowered cardiovascular risk and increased life span.13 Other studies support omega-3#8217;s importance cardiovascular health.14-20 In fact, the FDA states that supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. An enormous amount of scientific data documents the health risks associated with excess consumption of polyunsaturated fatty acids. While the polyunsaturated fats known as omega-6 fatty acids are essential to optimal health, most Americans and citizens of other Western nations consume far too many omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids and not enough omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. The omega-3 fatty acids EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) are found in abundance in fatty fish and some marine mammals, as well as in the algae (seaweed) upon which they feed. Based on the multiple health effects of omega-3 fatty acids, including its effects on the heart, the importance of DHA and EPA cannot be overstated. Super Omega-3 EPA/DHA with Sesame Lignans Olive Fruit Extract contains pharmaceutical-grade fish oil with a unique 35%/25% ratio of EPA/DHA. Research demonstrates that the addition of sesame lignans to fish oil enhances its beneficial effects. Sesame lignans inhibit an enzyme (delta-5-desaturase) that causes dietary fats to be converted into arachidonic acid, a precursor to the toxic inflammatory factors prostaglandin E2 and leukotriene B4. Polyphen-Oil#8482; Olive Fruit Extract is a proprietary, fortified extra virgin olive oil complex developed by Life Extension. The naturally occurring polyphenol antioxidants are typically lost in olive juice discarded during olive oil pressing. Polyphen-Oil

 Would choose another product November 18, 2008
Suzette (Jacksonville, FL)
After taking this product for the last three weeks as directed on the bottle, I have developed a bad side effect - burping the taste of fish all day! The remaining softgels are sitting on the shelf. This is not a problem that I have experienced with other Omega-3/Omega-6 products.
 Life extension is the best! April 5, 2008

Life extension foundation only offers excellent products. Omega 3 is lacking in most of the occidental diets and it's the cause of many deceases. br / br /The dose of Omega 3 in this pills is 2.5times the amount you find in cheaper brands, and life extension gives us also the benefits of consuming a good amount of olive oil with a proprietary blend of olive juice that is part of this product. br / br /You cant go wrong with Life extension. Omega 3 is necessary for its anti clotting properties, anti inflammatory, it is found in great quantities in the brain and is associated with cartilage creation among other things. Unless that you are consuming a couple pounds per week of deep ocean fish (salmon, sardines) you are in need of omega 3 supplementation. br / br /If you have cholesterol problems i suggest you check your analysis before you start this supplement and one month after. Remember that the best indicative of health issues is not the amount of good cholesterol, but the relation between the good and the bad.
