How many grams of long-chain Omega-3 fatty
acids are found in a single capsule of SeaLogix OMEGA-3 FISH OIL
SUPPLEMENTS™?
Each SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ capsule contains 600 mg. of long-chain omega-3 fatty
acids. This is twice the amount found in health-food grade fish
oil capsules. Four SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ capsules supply 2.4 grams of
long-chain omega-3 fatty acids.How many
grams of long-chain Omega-3 fatty acids in a teaspoon of SeaLogix
OMEGA-3™
fish oil liquid?
One teaspoon of liquid SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ contains 2.7 grams of long-chain
omega-3 fatty acids. This is slightly more than one tablespoon of
cod liver oil. This is equivalent to taking nine (9) capsules of
typical health-food grade fish oil. Each teaspoon of SeaLogix
OMEGA-3™
contains 1800 mg. (1.8 g) of EPA and 900 mg. (0.9 g) of DHA.
Why this
particular ratio of EPA and DHA?
The 2:1 ratio of EPA and DHA in
SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ is virtually the same as that used in all scientific
studies conducted with ultra refined fish oil reporting
clinical benefits. Your healthcare professional will be very
glad to hear this 2:1 ratio!
How much
SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ fish oil should I take?
The suggested maintenance dose is 2.5 grams of long-chain omega-3 fatty
acids each day. This dosage represents either four SeaLogiX™
capsules or one teaspoon of the liquid SeaLogix OMEGA-3™.
Most individuals will find that the capsules are the preferred
choice for daily supplementation. Individuals who select
the liquid SeaLogix OMEGA-3™
are those who may require higher amounts of long-chain omega-3
fatty acids and find daily compliance easier than taking large
amounts of capsules.
Why is
SeaLogix OMEGA-3 FISH OIL™ the best value?
Manufacturing ultra refined fish oil requires extensive
purification. In fact, it takes 100 gallons of health-food grade
fish oil to make one gallon of ultra refined fish oil. Only
ultra-refined material makes high-dose supplementation
possible due to lack of toxins or gastric distress common with
other fish oils at recommended dose levels.
SeaLogiX™ goes beyond
molecular distillation --
SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ Ultra
Refined Fish Oil is molecularly distilled for best
purity and lack of toxins. And
SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ Ultra
Refined Fish Oil is virtually TOXIN-FREE!
How should
I store the SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ Fish Oil capsules?
Soft gelatin capsules are best stored between 59 and 75 degrees in
a dry, dark container. This is why each container contains an
absorbent to maintain a defined degree of humidity. The shelf life
of the capsules is two years under these conditions.
How should
I store the SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ Fish Oil liquid?
After opening the liquid SeaLogix OMEGA-3™, carefully remove the plug, and
then discard it. Put the bottle in the freezer to maintain its
potency. When taking the bottle from the freezer allow it to set
for 1-2 minutes. Always shake the container well before using to better
disperse the flavor. The liquid SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ has a one-year shelf life
under these conditions.
What makes a fish oil "ultra refined"?
A ccording to Dr. Sears,
ultra refined fish oil has some very distinct
characteristics: The concentration of EPA and DHA must be
more than 60%; the concentration of PCB's must be less than 45
ppb/g; the concentration of Dioxins must be less
than 1 ppt and the concentration of Mercury must be less than 10
ppb (parts per billion).
SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ goes beyond
molecular distillation -- SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ Ultra Refined Fish Oil is
fractionally distilled for best purity and lack of toxins.
And SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ Ultra Refined Fish Oil virtually
TOXIC-FREE
fish oil supplements!
What does
liquid SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ taste like?
Liquid SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ has remarkably little taste or odor, especially
when kept in the freezer.
However, here are some additional tips
to improve taste:
Eat a small piece of citrus fruit
(lime, lemon, or orange) with the oil. The citrus flavor will mask
any residual taste.
Have a sip of a cup of decaffeinated coffee with the liquid
SeaLogix OMEGA-3™.
Or simply mix with your orange juice.
Make a Big Brain Shake with 2 cups of berries, 30 grams of protein
powder and 1-3 teaspoons of SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ Fish Oil supplement liquid. The protein powder will
emulsify the oil, plus you instantly create a Zone meal that
includes your daily supplementation with
SeaLogix OMEGA-3™ fish oil!
