4 Reasons Why Shaklee OmegaGuard is Special

Category: Healthy Nutrition

Many doctors recommend supplementing your diet with Omega 3 fatty acids. And this is because it's difficult for other people to get enough Omega 3 into their daily diet.

Why? Because you need at least 2 servings of 3.5 ounces of fish (preferably oily) each week and not everyone is able to include fish on a regular basis.

But like any other supplements, not all fish oils are created equal. There are the good ones and the best ones.

Before you head on down to the store to get some fish oil supplements, you need to realize that many of the store-bought brands may actually be highly toxic! You see, some supplement manufacturers extract the low-quality oils using a toxic solvent.

Yikes!

Some actually extract the oils using HEXANE, which is a synthetic solvent petrochemical.

This is why I recommend Shaklee's OmegaGuard.

4 Reasons Shaklee OmegaGuard is special

1. OmegaGuard's fish oil is properly distilled
   Regardless of where they come from, all sea-borne fish contain natural contaminants - in particular, heavy metals like mercury and lead, dioxins, and PCBs. In fact, a 1998 study revealed that many globally available fish oil supplements contain pesticides.
   
   There are a number of brands that use high-pressure distillation for oil extraction, however, this method not only destroys some of the nutrients, it is also not able to filter heavy metal content. 
   
   OmegaGuard undergoes a proprietary state-of-the-art multistep molecular distillation process that:
    
   • Concentrates natural, beneficial omega-3 fatty acids, including EPA and DHA
   • Removes lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium, dioxins, PCBs, and other contaminants
   • Reduces oxidation and formation of trans fats
   • Minimizes odor and fishy aftertaste


2. Fish used in OmegaGuard are sourced out of the cleanest ocean waters
   While molecular distillation removes toxic chemicals from fish, you still want a supplement that’s fished out of the freshest, cleanest ocean waters. You certainly wouldn’t want to take a soft gel made from fish swimming in polluted waters, would you?
   
   Well, I'm very happy to say that OmegaGuard is not only sourced out of the cleanest ocean water, it's fish oil comes certified by Friend of the Sea®, an international conservation organization that follows strict criteria for sustainability.
   
   Friend of the Sea tracks fish populations and works with fishermen to set catch limits and avoid harvesting during spawning seasons. Their efforts help ensure a constant supply of high-quality fish oil for Shaklee products without harming the environment.


3. Fish used in OmegaGuard have more potent DHA and EPA levels
   The type of fish a supplement is made from influences how potent the Omega-3 it contains.
   
   Most fish oil supplements use cod, but cold water fish that inhabit the deeper parts of the ocean such as mackerel, sardines, herring, and anchovies have three times more potent DHA and EPA levels.
   
   OmegaGuard's fish oil has been extracted from cold water deep ocean water fish like sardines and anchovies. Shaklee fish oil is 3 times more dense than cod liver oil. It is the source of the most natural and healthy EPA, DHA, and ALA.


4. OmegaGuard offers the combined recommended intake of 500 mg EPA and DHA Most organization agree that at least 2 servings of a 3.5 ounce of fish (preferably oily) each week is a good start. That equals about 500 milligrams of EPA/DHA each day. For treating disease, up to 4,000 milligrams per day is recommended by various studies, although values do vary.
   
   OmegaGuard, as stated above, contains 1,200 mg of pharmaceutical-grade fish oil with a total of 667 mg of omega-3 fatty acids.
