What is Omega 3 A+E?

Omega-3 Algae A+E is a unique combination of omega-3 fatty acids, DHA, EPA, and fat-soluble Vitamins A and E, best absorbed in the fatty environment of omega-3 fatty acids, which share many functions with DHA and EPA. Omega-3 Algae A+E, unlike fish oil omegas, is burpless and can be taken with or without food. Sourced from algae, helps prevent depletion of krill and fish reserves. 

What are the benefits of using Omega-3 Algae A+E?

In its article, The Importance of Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids, GrassRoots Health shared:

In fact, evidence suggests higher omega-3 intake may:

• Lower blood pressure and reduce blood triglyceride levels
• Slow the development of plaque in the arteries and the development of heart disease
• Reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke and death
• Improve muscle stiffness, soreness, and range of motion recovery in athletes
• Improve mental health and prevent cognitive impairment
• Reduce the risk of non-melanoma skin cancer and breast cancer
• Improve immune response to infection
• Reduce levels of C-reactive protein and inflammation

AND

Both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are important components of cell membranes that contribute to the structure, fluidity, flexibility, enzymatic activity, and signaling between cells. It is through the roles that omega-3s and -6s play in cell membranes, particularly in inflammation, that their balance ultimately contributes to disease protection or susceptibility.

What Does Omega-3 Algae A+E do?

Omega-3s and omega-6s in the cell membrane play different roles in inflammation, as illustrated in the diagram below. Omega-6s (such as AA) are essential for initiating and sustaining the inflammatory response – a physiologic function necessary for healing from injuries and infection. Omega-3s (such as DHA and EPA) are anti-inflammatory and promote the resolution of the inflammatory process.

Pro-inflammatory eicosanoids produced from omega-6s are important chemicals in the immune system. However, when too many of them are produced, they can suppress the immune system, promote blood clotting and increase inflammation and inflammatory disease. Unfortunately, a majority of the population consumes too many omega-6s and too few omega-3s, which leads to an abundance of omega-6s in the cell membrane.

Does Omega-3 Algae A+E need refrigeration?

No, Omega-3 Algae A+E does not have to be refrigerated. Store it in a cool, dark place where the temperature is less than 77 degrees Fahrenheit. 

What is the expiration date for Omega-3 Algae A+E?

The expiration date for Omega-3 Algae A+E is 24 months after date of manufacture.
