Cod Liver Oil 1000mg

This is different to fish oil as all the oil is obtained from the liver of the cod. It contains good levels of essential omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA needed for overall health (see fish oil), but is also a valuable source of the fat-soluble nutrients vitamin A and vitamin D. Vitamin A is essential for growth, repair and eye health, but is also valuable for immune function and keeping the respiratory system free from infection. Vitamin D is essential for calcium absorption and therefore important to bone health. It also appears to have a role at influencing mood. Many people take cod liver oil to help with joint problems, but traditionally it was also used as a tonic during the long winter months. Vitamin E is also added to keep the product fresh.

Concentrated Fish Oil 1000mg

Fish oil comes from the bodies of oily fish and is a very rich source of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, which are often lacking in our western-style diet. These essential fatty acids are necessary for many functions in the body and are necessary to help maintain good overall health. This is evident as deficiencies cause many symptoms, including unhealthy skin, fluid retention, hormonal imbalances, inflammation and high cholesterol levels. In addition, research has found that taking oily fish as a supplement can help with many health problems such as disorders of the skin, joints, digestive system and depression. Omega-3 fatty acids have also been found to be very beneficial for young children's brain development, eye health, concentration, mood and behaviour. Recent research has found that omega-3 fatty acids are very beneficial to children who suffer from Attention Defecit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and dyslexia.

Evening Primrose Oil

Our bodies need omega-6 fats in order to function properly, but they must be converted into a usable form first. Generally, omega-6 fats are not usually deficient in the western-style diet, however due to many nutritional deficiencies and high cholesterol levels our body finds it difficult to use these fats efficiently. GLA or gamma-linolenic acid is an omega-6 essential fatty acid which the body can easily use to help maintain good overall health. Taking evening primrose oil solves this problem as it directly delivers as much as 10% GLA. Evening primrose oil supplements are often taken for various skin disorders and by women for premenstrual problems. Vitamin E is also added to keep the product fresh.
