Pharmaceutical Grade Fish Oil and Ocean Pollution
Lots of people are concerned about pollution. Especially product contamination. Should they be?
The answer is no.
Let me start by saying that by pollution most people mean heavy metals and PCBs.
A triple phase molecular distillation purification process to maximize purity gets rid of virtually any contamination of the above.
Also, the oils in any product should be distilled in a controlled, pristine vacuum environment. This insures contaminant removal above and beyond traditional purification methods.
Your supplement must also surpass all national and international standards for environmental pollutants. This means dioxins, PCB’s, pesticides and heavy metals - and of course mercury.
Are there reasons to be concerned with contaminants?
Of course.
A Canadian study sampled commercial grade fish oil recently. All the samples analyzed contained detectable residues of both organochlorine pesticides and PCBs.
Notice the study involved “commercial grade fish oil.”
This is the stuff found in supermarkets, drugstores, health food stores, and shopping clubs. It is sold cheaply as a commodity, and can actually be bad for your health, and doesn’t benefit anyone.
Many recent studies suggest that pharmaceutical grade omega 3 fatty acids may confer many potential health benefits, such as:
1. Improvement of vascular health.
2. A reduction in cardiovascular disease risk.
3. Rhuematoid arthritis symptoms reduced.
4. Thinning of the blood.
Regular old fish oil can’t possibly compare.
A study forwarded to me today suggests a link between pharmaceutical grade fish oil and improved function of the prostate. Another thing to remember is that pharmaceutical grade fish oil is not a drug, and has no debilitating side effects. So remember to only go with pharmaceutical grade.
