BUY OMEGA 3 Omega 3 / DHA Esters

Omega 3 Flax and Borage Dosage

Hi. I was wondering how much omega is recommended to take in one day? I have triple omega pills (flax, fish, borage). The supplement facts read:

400 mg flaxseed oil
400mg borage oil
400 mg Fish oil (it says 50% next to it)

Then it says: "These three oils typically provide the following fatty acid profile:
Omega-3 Fatty acids 420mg"

Then it continues w/:

220mg ALA
120mg EPA
80mg DHA
286mg Omega-6 Fatty acids
180mg Linoleci acid
88mg GLG
152mg Omega-9 fatty acids

What does this all mean? How many should I be taking? Three? I am not very sure. Thanks.

All body cells have a membrane. Each membrane is mainly made of essential fats, or essential fatty acids, Omega 6 and Omega 3. If the membrane has too much Omega 6 it becomes hard, viscous and there are problems for the food, energy and hormone transfer.

When Omega 3 is sufficient the membrane is thinner, less viscous, more elastic, less inflamed. Too much 3 Omega and the membrane “drips”. Too much Omega 6 and is clogged. It has been established that the appropriate Omega 6/Omega 3 ratio is near 1:1. In our modern life this ratio has changed to around 20:1, and some times up to 50:1. We eat too much Omega 6.

Too much Omega 6 and our cellular membranes are heavy, inelastic and the cellular function is slow. The body must do more work to feed itself and to remove toxins.

Tissues are plugged up and they become inflamed. Inflammation is the main symptom of many diseases, from heart disease , arthritis, allergies and the list goes on and on.

Omega 3 deficiency is also related to diseases like diabetes and thyroid dysfunction. If your membranes are slow, your body must produce more insulin to be able to put sugars into cells to produce energy.

Then, you become more insulin resistant. If your pancreas is inflamed it will be more difficult to produce the insulin your body is demanding.

Omega 3 fish oil deficiency also is related to high cholesterol. Cholesterol is a substance that heals and alleviates inflammation. High cholesterol is not the real problem. The body produces more cholesterol to try to fix something, generally inflammation. Fix the inflammation and the body will lower its cholesterol production. In addition, insulin stimulates more cholesterol production.

When you buy a supplement of something you already have too much in your body, you are over-supplying your body with that substance. That is the case for Omega 6 and omega 9, you already have too much in your diet ( in all modern diets) and you are doing more harm than good by providing more.

You should supplement ONLY with omega 3, which is fish oil, of which we all have a big deficiency. Try to have at least 3 grams per day of fish oil(540 mgr of EPA and 360 mgr of DHA), if you are at optimum health and weight. Otherwise, better take more.

Scientists throughout the world believe a great deal of the suffering caused from these diseases could be avoided by adequate intake of an essential Omega 3 fatty acid found in fish oil called DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) You may want to read this information.
