Benefits, Information and Uses of Omega
Max: |
- All Natural OMEGA MAX is rich in
Essential Fatty Acids, EFA, which are needed by every cell in the body. Linoleic acid and linolenic acid can not be formed by the body
and must be gotten in the diet.
|
- These polyunsaturated fats
are thought to regulate prostaglandins, which help regulate
hormones and may benefit the heart and vascular system.
|
- Studies and use suggest that
omega-3, 6, and 9 fatty acids help lower blood pressure, decrease
bad LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, increase good HDL and reduce
angina and joint pain.
|
- These unsaturated fats promote healthy skin and
are used
in many cosmetics.
|
- OMEGA MAX offers
cold pressed Borage Seed Oil and Flax seed Oil in
addition to cold water Fish Oil.

A diet rich in these essential fatty acids (and
devoid of "harmful" saturated or trans-fatty acids)
is thought to help keep the body healthy by regulating prostaglandins (which
help regulate hormones). EFAs promote skin health and are included in many cosmetics.
Studies suggest EFAs can be beneficial to
the cardiovascular system by helping to lower blood pressure and by
decreasing bad LDL cholesterol and triglycerides while increasing good HDL
cholesterol. EFAs may help reduce the risk of angina, stroke and heart
attack. EFAs are thought to benefit joint pain and inflammation.
A 2005
review in Skin & Allergy News reported "Omega-3 fatty acid capsules
are an excellent alternative to traditional fibrates or niacin for
triglyceride lowering, John Merenich, M.D., said at a meeting of the
Colorado chapter of the American College of Physicians... I am a huge
advocate of the omega-3 fatty acids...He added that the omega-3 fatty acids
lend themselves well to combination lipid lowering therapy with statins."
Skin & Allergy News September 2005
(Statins are perscription lipid lowering medicines such as Lipitor, Crestor,
Zocor, Pravachol).
According to a recent article in
PainMedicine News, July/August 2005 "Omega-3 fatty acids are another
promising alternative to NSAIDs for patients with chronic back and neck
pain. Omega-3 fatty acids are beneficial fats with antithrombotic and antiarrhyhmic activity. Research supports the use of
omega-3 fatty acids for treating rheumatoid arthritis and neck and back
pain in addition to hyper lipidemia, hypertension and atopic dermatitis.
The richest sources of omega-3 fatty acids include salmon, halibut,
cod, herring, mackerel and tuna. Flax seeds, canola oil and walnuts are also
high in omega-3 fatty acids." Painmedicine News July/August 2005 Volume
