Omega 3 Ultra, Lambert’s, 60s

Omega 3 Ultra has incredible well documented health benefits. In fact, research shows that omegas 3s are a vital part in supporting our health & wellbeing. It is one of the three staple supplements that practitioners recommend, alongside a multi vitamins and probiotic.

Omega 3 Ultra Ingredients: Fish Oil Concentrate providing Omega 3 Fatty Acids, Eicosapenaenoic Acid (EPA), Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA), Encapsulated with: Capsule Shell (Gelatin, Glycerin, Sweet Orange Oil), Antioxidant: Mixed Tocopherols.

Study:

This is a study that show that: “trials of fish oil in chronic inflammatory diseases reveal significant benefit. This includes decreased disease activity and a lowered use of anti-inflammatory drugs”. “Among the fatty acids, it is the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) which possess the most potent immunomodulatory activities. Among the omega-3 PUFA, those from fish oil-eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)–are more biologically potent. These are compared to alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). Some of the effects of omega-3 PUFA are brought about by modulation of the amount and types of eicosanoids made. But also by other effects are elicited by eicosanoid-independent mechanisms. These includes actions upon intracellular signalling pathways, transcription factor activity and gene expression.

Animal experiments and clinical intervention studies indicate that omega-3 fatty acids have anti-inflammatory properties and, therefore, might be useful in the management of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Coronary heart disease, major depression, aging and cancer show an increased level of interleukin 1 (IL-1), a proinflammatory cytokine. Similarly, arthritis, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis and lupus erythematosis are autoimmune diseases that show high level of IL-1 and the proinflammatory leukotriene LTB(4) produced by omega-6 fatty acids. There have been a number of clinical trials assessing the benefits of dietary supplementation with fish oils in several inflammatory and autoimmune diseases in humans, including rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, psoriasis, lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis and migraine headaches. Many of the placebo-controlled trials of fish oil in chronic inflammatory diseases reveal significant benefit, including decreased disease activity and a lowered use of anti-inflammatory drugs.”
