Nutrilite Salmon Omega 3

NUTRILITE Salmon Omega -3 contains a unique blend of omega -3 oils sourced from salmon
raised in the cold, pure waters of Norway & a proprietary blend of 3 additional omega-3 sources
Anchovy, Mackerel, Sardines from the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
Each softgel has a balance of 180EPA:120DHA, with a total of 300mg of omega-3 fatty acids in
most active form which can be easily used by the body.
Omega-3 fatty acids are long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. They are building blocks of every
living cell in the human body and required for optimal function of the cells. If you are not currently
consuming at least 2 meals of fatty fish per week, you may benefit from a supplement rich in EPA
and DHA. EPA & DHA may be beneficial to overall heart health as they help support a low fat diet.

Serving size 2 /day

Joint Benefit
Eye Benefit

Omega-3 intake and consumption of omega-3 fish has been associated

with decreased risk of two eye-related problems: macular degeneration
and chronic dry eye. In the case of macular degeneration (a chronic eye
problem in which material in the center of the retina on the back of the
eyeball begins to deteriorate and cause loss of vision), two fish servings
per week is the amount that has been shown to significantly decrease risk.
For decreased risk of chronic dry eye, a somewhat higher amount of
omega-3 fish intake (2-4 servings per week) was the minimum amount
needed, with 5-6 weekly servings showing even greater reduction of risk.

Decreased Cancer Risk

Intake of fish rich in omega-3 fat is also associated with decreased risk for
several types of cancer. These cancer types include colorectal cancer, prostate

cancer, and breast cancer. Some of the strongest findings for decreased cancer
risk following regular intake of omega-3 fish involve the blood cell or lymph cellrelated cancers including leukemia, multiple myeloma, and non-Hodgkins
lymphoma. Similar to cardiovascular studies, cancer risk studies typically begin
to show measurable benefits when omega-3 fish are consumed at least once per
week.

Seven health benefits of salmon

1. Eating salmon is beneficial in the treatment of osteoarthritis and
other inflammatory joint conditions. Salmon contains small proteins
called bioactive peptides. One in particular, called calcitonin, has
been shown to increase, regulate and stabilize collagen synthesis in
human osteoarthritic cartilage. This salmon-found protein also
improves bone density and strength.
2. Eating salmon makes you smarter and happier. The brain is 60
percent fat and most of that is the omega-3 fatty acid DHA. Thirty
percent of the grey matter in the brain is DHA showing how critical it
is to brain function and a healthy nervous system. Eating salmon
regularly has been shown to reduce the risk and incidence of
depression, hostility in young adults and cognitive decline in the
elderly.
3. Eating salmon increases your cardiovascular health. As noted,
salmon contains high levels of the omega-3 fats, EPA and DHA.
These fats are responsible for many cardiovascular benefits such as
reducing inflammation, keeping the blood from clotting excessively
and relaxing and dilating the arteries. When eaten two to three
times per week, salmon can protect you from problems such as
heart attack, stroke, arrhythmia, high blood pressure and high
triglycerides.
4. Salmon protects your eyes. Eating salmon twice a week has been
shown to significantly decrease the risk of macular degeneration
a chronic eye condition that leads to loss of vision. For the treatment
and prevention of a condition called dry eye syndrome, eat two to
four servings per week.

5. Salmon helps build childrens brains. Eating salmon while

pregnant and nursing can boost learning capability and academic
performance in children. Salmon contains high levels of DHA
(decosahexaenoic acid) which is the main structural fatty acid in the
central nervous system and retina. Feeding salmon to preschool
children also aids in the prevention of ADHD and can even boost
academic performance.
6. Salmons an excellent source of vitamin D. Sufficient vitamin D is
crucial to maintaining optimal health. A deficiency of this essential
vitamin has been linked to an increased risk of cancer,
cardiovascular disease, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis and
type-1 diabetes. One can of salmon, for example, contains a days
worth of vitamin D.
7. Salmon helps you sleep. Salmon is an excellent source of
tryptophan, an all-natural sedative. Studies show that tryptophan
increases sleepiness in subjects with mild insomnia and helps to
shorten the time it takes to fall asleep.
