Nothing fishy about Lifestream V-Omega 3
Planet Health, the leading distributor and marketer of premium natural health products, is showcasing a sustainable algal source of vegetarian Omega 3: Lifestream V-Omega 3 on stand D12 at The Pharmacy Show. Omega 3 essential fatty acids are vital to our health yet cannot be synthesized by the human body. For this reason, we need to obtain them through diet and supplementation. Omega 3 essential fatty acids are integral to the suppleness and health of all cells and have been shown to benefit brain function, the cardiovascular and nervous systems, joint health and mobility.
Straight to the source! Fish don’t naturally produce Omega 3 either and obtain their EPA and DHA from eating algae. Derived from this marine microalgae, Lifestream V-Omega 3 is 100% natural. It contains high strength docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and plant derived vitamin D. Each capsule provides 66% more DHA than standard fish oils without the fishy smell or aftertaste.
EPA and DHA are vital nutrients which help to maintain healthy brain and retina function. DHA is a building block of tissue in the retina and the brain, where it helps form neural transmitters, which are important for brain function.
The main source of vitamin D is sunlight. Excessive time spent indoors increases the chance of a vitamin D deficiency. This makes supplemental vitamin D crucial for people with limited opportunities to enjoy exposure to sunlight.
Each Lifestream V-Omega 3 capsule contains:
833mg Microalgae oil (Schizochytrium sp)
200mg Providing DHA (Docosahexaenoic acid)
100mg Providing EPA (Eicosapentaenoic acid)
2.5mcg (100IU) Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol)
A March 2012, Aker BioMarine Antarctic US (Oslo, Norway) and Discovery Research Group survey found that, “Nearly four out of ten consumers who want to take an omega 3 supplement are looking for an alternative to fish oil. Until now, vegetarians and those seeking a sustainable omega product have looked to flaxseed or chia which contain ALA (alpha linolenic acid), hoping that they had all the necessary nutrients to convert the ALA into EPA & DHA. Now there are no extra steps. The unique V-Omega 3 formula is a powerful combination of algae and plant-based ingredients to provide the body with V-Omega 3 in the form that the body can use directly.”
Lifestream V-Omega 3 is available in 45 capsule quantity. Wholesale price per unit is £22.19 and the RRP is £39.95.
