Why you need omega 3: Omega-3 fatty acids are "good fats" that are essential for optimal health. Like vitamins and minerals, omega-3 must be provided by our diet as it is not produced by our bodies. EPA and DHA are the active forms of omega-3 required by the body to perform vital functions: Omega-3 (EPA & DHA) function in the body Promotes cardiovascular health Reduces inflammation Supports mental focus & cognitive function Supports positive mood & emotional well-being Promotes brain, eye, & nervous system health Supports healthy immune system function Enhances appearance of skin and hair Promotes optimal fat metabolism A number of dietary habits, such as the widespread use of vegetable cooking oils (omega-6), industrial milling, and the decreased consumption of fish (omega-3), have contributed to an omega-3 deficiency, or imbalance, in the diets of many North Americans. As compared to the ancestral diet of Neo-Palaeolithic humans, omega-3 consumption has dropped 20 fold from a daily intake of 3.0 grams down to a meager 0.15 grams. At the same time omega-6 consumption has increased dramatically, far exceeding the recommended daily intake. A decreased amount of omega-3 relative to omega-6 in the diet results in an increased risk of degenerative disease. Experts generally advise that we consume more omega-3 and less omega-6. Frequently Asked Questions - NutraSea Is NutraSea pharmaceutical grade? The term "Pharmaceutical grade" is typically used in reference to fish oils. "Pharmaceutical grade" is not a regulated classification therefore misuse of the term is quite common. Typically the term refers to fish oil supplements that comply with the quality and purity standards set forth by the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN). The CRN Fish Oil Monograph is an internationally accepted standard that defines strict limits for product quality and purity. Products that meet or exceed these standards are qualified to use the term Pharmaceutical grade. NutraSea far exceeds the requirements of the CRN Monograph and therefore exceeds "pharmaceutical grade". Is NutraSea molecularly distilled? Yes, molecular distillation is an important step in the processing of high quality fish oils. The primary purpose of distillation is to purify and concentrate the oil. Although heat is applied to the oil during the distillation step, the oil is not degraded because the process occurs under high vacuum and in the absence of light. This means air (oxygen) and light are removed to prevent the oil from oxidizing (degrading). Is NutraSea third-party tested? Yes, every batch of NutraSea is tested for quality, purity and label claims by an independent laboratory. How does IFOS testing differ from the Pure Check testing? IFOS and Pure Check are very similar. Both are third-party testing programs to evaluate fish oil quality, purity and label claims. The reference standard for both programs is the CRN Fish Oil Monograph, which is considered the benchmark for pharmaceutical quality oils. The only major difference between IFOS and Pure Check is tha
