Complete Omega-3 contains 3 essential parts:
- EPA
- DHA
- DPA
Omega-3 EPA, DHA and DPA is balanced in the human body at birth but lost through age. The only way to get Omega-3 EPA, DHA and DPA is through diet or supplements.
Omega-6 is also an essential fatty acid but research has shown that Omega-6 is far too high in modern diets. Too much Omega-6 can lead to increased health problems such as heart disease.
FLAX
Found mostly in grocery store 'Omega-3' foods like bread, milk, eggs and juices. Flax does not contain Omega-3 EPA, DHA and DPA. Flax only contains Omega-3 ALA which must be converted by our bodies to become EPA and DHA. Conversion from ALA to EPA and DHA is between 5% and 10% if converted at all. There is no DPA in flax.
FISH
Hardly any fish contain DPA, which also makes fish an incomplete source of Omega-3 EPA, DHA and DPA.
Fish are highly susceptible to pollutants and contaminants according to many recent studies and news reports.
SEAL
DPA GOLD Omega-3 is chemically similar to Omega-3 found in the human body at birth. This ensures that DPA GOLD Omega-3 is recognized by the body and quickly absorbed for optimal health benefits.
DPA GOLD Omega-3 is the most direct, natural and balanced source of
Omega-3 EPA, DHA and DPA.
