Key Benefits

• Supports cardiovascular health and helps maintain healthy triglyceride levels within normal ranges
• Supports brain health and helps maintain cognitive function and mental clarity
• Helps maintain a healthy inflammatory response throughout the body
• Supports eye health and helps maintain healthy vision

What This Is

This is a pharmaceutical grade omega 3 fish oil supplement providing 1200mg of total omega 3 fatty acids per serving in the re esterified triglyceride (rTG) form, the most bioavailable and structurally natural form of fish oil available. Certified IFOS 5 Star, the highest rating awarded by the International Fish Oil Standards program, the world's most rigorous independent third party fish oil testing and certification program. Omega 3 fatty acids EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) are among the most extensively researched nutrients in nutritional science, with thousands of peer reviewed studies supporting their role in cardiovascular health, brain function, and inflammatory balance. Health Canada licensed and manufactured in Canada to GMP standards.

The Science

What Are EPA and DHA?

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are long chain omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids that are essential for human health. EPA is the primary omega 3 fatty acid involved in the production of anti inflammatory eicosanoids, prostaglandins, and resolvins that support a healthy inflammatory response throughout the body. DHA is a structural component of cell membranes throughout the body and is particularly concentrated in the brain (where it constitutes approximately 97% of the omega 3 fatty acids in the brain), the retina (where it constitutes approximately 93% of the omega 3 fatty acids), and the heart. Both EPA and DHA must be obtained from the diet or supplementation as the body's ability to synthesize them from shorter chain omega 3 fatty acids (such as ALA from plant sources) is limited and highly variable.

Why rTG Form Is Superior to Ethyl Ester Fish Oil

Fish oil supplements are available in three primary forms: natural triglyceride (TG), ethyl ester (EE), and re esterified triglyceride (rTG). The majority of fish oil supplements on the market use the ethyl ester form because it is less expensive to produce. However, ethyl ester fish oil has significantly lower bioavailability than triglyceride forms, with research showing 50 to 70% lower absorption compared to natural triglyceride fish oil. Re esterified triglyceride (rTG) fish oil is produced by converting ethyl ester fish oil back into the natural triglyceride structure, resulting in a highly concentrated, highly bioavailable form that matches the natural structure of omega 3 fatty acids as they exist in fish. Research consistently demonstrates that rTG fish oil provides superior EPA and DHA absorption compared to ethyl ester forms, making it the preferred choice for pharmaceutical grade omega 3 supplementation.

What Is IFOS 5 Star Certification?

IFOS (International Fish Oil Standards) is the world's most rigorous independent third party testing and certification program for fish oil supplements. IFOS tests fish oil products for EPA and DHA content accuracy, total oxidation (TOTOX value), PCBs, dioxins, furans, heavy metals (mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic), and other environmental contaminants. The IFOS 5 Star rating is the highest certification level awarded, indicating that the product meets or exceeds all IFOS standards for purity, potency, and freshness. IFOS 5 Star certification provides independent, third party verification that the omega 3 content on the label is accurate and that the product is free from harmful levels of contaminants, providing the highest level of quality assurance available for fish oil supplements.

Omega 3 and Cardiovascular Health

EPA and DHA are among the most extensively researched nutrients for cardiovascular health. Research on omega 3 supplementation consistently demonstrates support for healthy triglyceride levels within normal ranges, healthy blood pressure, healthy platelet function, and a healthy inflammatory response in cardiovascular tissue. EPA and DHA support cardiovascular health through multiple complementary mechanisms including modulating eicosanoid production, supporting healthy endothelial function, and contributing to the structural integrity of cardiac cell membranes.

Omega 3 and Brain Health

DHA is the primary structural fatty acid in the brain, constituting approximately 97% of the omega 3 fatty acids in brain tissue and playing a critical role in maintaining the fluidity and function of neuronal cell membranes. Adequate DHA supports cognitive function, mental clarity, and healthy mood regulation. EPA contributes to brain health through its anti inflammatory and eicosanoid modulating properties, supporting a healthy neuroinflammatory response. Research on omega 3 supplementation consistently demonstrates support for cognitive function, mental clarity, and overall brain health across all life stages.
