Researchers have spent decades and completed countless studies to explore the mechanisms responsible for the health benefits of omega-3 fatty acids. It is widely believed that two specific compounds, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), can be credited with the widespread benefits of fish oil supplementation. Indeed, many of our tissues rely on these fatty acids for proper synthesis and communication.
However, although both are important for various aspects of human health, a high ratio of EPA relative to DHA has been demonstrated to have unique advantages. Generally speaking, EPA is imperative for its role in inflammation. High EPA ratios are best suited for inflammatory conditions, cardiovascular support and mental health conditions.
Obtaining the ideal ratio of EPA:DHA to match treatment goals is only one challenge with omega-3 fatty acid supplementation. Another issue that arises is poor compliance because many supplements require a great number of capsules or teaspoons per day to achieve an evidence-based dose of EPA and DHA.
Cyto-Matrix’s Omega-EPA Liquid Forte solves this problem by providing 2200mg of EPA and 490mg of DHA in only one teaspoon. These omega-3 fatty acids are provided in their highly bioavailable and native triglyceride form.
Omega-EPA Liquid Forte is also iFOS (International Fish Oil Standard) certified to meet the highest quality standards and to guarantee optimal stability, potency and purity. iFOS certification standards exceed even internationally recognized levels set by regulatory bodies and key trade organizations, such as the Council for Responsible Nutrition and the World Health Organization.
To achieve this high standard, Omega-EPA Liquid Forte is molecularly distilled, without the use of chemicals or solvents, to safely remove harmful compounds such as heavy metals and organophosphate compounds. Additionally, a proprietary antioxidant blend of GMO-free mixed tocopherols, green tea extract, rosemary and vitamin C is added to effectively stabilize the oil blend.
