Omega-3s are known to be Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs). EFAs are special types of “good fat”. These are essential nutrients your body needs and are necessary for life but needs to be consumed through diet because our bodies cannot make it.  EFAs are required for proper structure and function of EVERY cell in the body and are crucial for optimum health.EFAs increase the absorption of vitamins and minerals, nourish skin, hair and nails, promote proper nerve function, help produce hormones and ensure growth and development and prevent and treat disease.In summary, like the name suggests EFAs are essential to our body and including this in our diet is crucial to our health.

Marine Phospholipid is rich in omega-3s such as EPA, DHA and ETA. *Omega-3 ETA is only found in green lipped mussels among marine animals and is one of the secret behind green lipped mussel's powerful anti-inflammatory properties.

Health Tip: 

It is crucial to have to have omega-3 and 6 ratio on check for our bodies. As the off balance of omega-6 causes inflammation and other health issues. It is recommended by anti-aging experts that [1:1] ratio of omega-3 to 6 is ideal. However, the modern western diet has caused an average person to have [1:19] omega 3 to omega 6. 

We recommend that you increase seafood in your diet which are high in omega-3s (Low in Omega-6s).Our Marine Phospholipid oils are potent and are rich in Omega-3s to boost ratio of omega-3s in your diet. 

(Omega-6s are commonly found in oils of beans, nuts and seeds. Therefore, processed food which uses these oils to fry food is to be avoided).

Furan fatty acids (F-acids) are uniquely found in green lipped mussel and is rarely or not found in other marine oils such as fish oil and krill oil. 

A study showed that F-acids played a vital role in green lipped mussel’s famous inflammation properties. F-acids have an anti-inflammatory component along with anti-oxidant properties, and inhibited lipid peroxidation (damaging of cell membranes). 

Special experiment was conducted in order to measure the anti-inflammatory effects of F-acids. The results showed that F-acids had much more potent anti-inflammatory activity than that of the omega-3 EPA (Active ingredient for fish oil and Krill oil). Therefore the report concluded that the secret behind green lipped mussel's high anti inflammatory property (100 times more portent than fish oil) was due to F-acids.

Green-Lipped Mussel Oil contains over 30 essential fatty acids and is a great source of Omega-3 EPA, DHA, and ETA. Omega-3 ETA is only found in Green-Lipped Mussels and and is known to be more than 100 times stronger than fish oil and reducing inflammation.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil contains more than 36 phenolic compounds and is a great source of antioxidants. One specific compound in particular, known as oleocanthal, has been discovered to have powerful natural benefits for joints.

Vitamin E is an antioxidant and it helps protect cells from damage caused by unstable molecules called free radicals. In addition to providing cell protection, Vitamin E is vital for a healthy Immune System and aids cells when fighting off infections.
