Life Extension Super Omega-3 EPA/DHA with Sesame Lignans & Olive Fruit Extract is an advanced clinically-tested fish oil formulation mostly derived from sustainable fish sources. This product contains a standardized blend of nutritional ingredients that help promote a healthy cardiovascular system.
Omega-3 is a polyunsaturated fatty acid known for its ability to promote good cholesterol, healthy blood circulation, and reduce the risk of chronic heart diseases. Life Extension Super Omega-3 is also rich in sesame lignans and olive fruit polyphenols, which are known for their antioxidant and fat-burning properties.
This product utilizes an advanced EPA/DHA extraction process that produces a more organic and highly bioavailable kind of fish oil extract. Other manufacturers, on the other hand, uses a distillation process to reduce the presence of harmful contaminants such as mercury and PCBs. Super Omega-3 is produced through a very exacting distillation process that carefully purifies fish oil concentrate, yielding a finished product where the presence of contaminants is virtually entirely eliminated.
Recent studies show that incorporating sesame lignans significantly improves the efficacy of fish oil supplementation. Sesame lignans is the collective term for two potent compounds found in sesame seeds called sesamin and sesamolin. These substances help lower the harmful effects of bad cholesterol, reduce inflammation, and may even prevent liver damage. Sesame lignans help fight lipid peroxidation, which then increases the stability of DHA.
Life Extension Super Omega-3 also mimics the high olive content of Mediterranean diets through the incorporation of olive fruit extracts. This ingredient provides polyphenol hydroxytyrosol, which exhibits strong antioxidant properties that help fight free radicals in the body.
The perfect combination of olive oil and fish oil concentrate is proven to increase the anti-inflammatory properties of this product. The polyphenol content of Super Omega-3 is tantamount to those found in a 6 ounces extra virgin oil.
