Reinventing the Fountain of Youth
This traditional remedy reveals amazing powers when used at higher doses
Our grandmothers thought that cod liver oil was a great general remedy. We were skeptical; and what’s more, it tasted bad. It turns out that she was on the right track – although the full potential of the fish oils could not be obtained with the low-quality products available at that time. But when purified and concentrated, fish oils contain two substances with remarkable biological properties and wide-ranging benefits: DHA and EPA.
DHA and EPA belong to the class of nutrients called – omega-3 fatty acid -. They are essential for neurological development and for normal brain function in adults, and they have significant influences on the function of arteries, veins, bones and joints.
Omega-3 supplements are usually sold in softgels. Recent research, however, has shown that these supplements need to be taken in substantial amounts – and it is inconvenient, dangerous, or even impossible for many people to swallow the number or size of softgels that would be required to achieve these optimum dosages. LifeLink therefore sells Omega-3 Fish Oil with DHA & EPA as a high-potency, lemon-flavored liquid to be taken with a spoon, so that it can be used by children and adults of all ages and conditions.
What happens if you don’t consume enough omega-3s?
Deficiencies of omega-3 fatty acids can cause difficulties with learning, thinking, and memory, and can exacerbate problems in the joints and cardiovascular system. Correlations have been shown between low omega-3 levels and a fairly wide variety of ailments, including: atherosclerosis, blood clots, stroke, heart attacks, and cardiac arrhythmias; depression, fatigue, lower intelligence, poor memory, poor concentration, and low visual acuity; Alzheimer’s progression; arthritis and asthma – even cancer! Correcting such deficiencies with omega-3 supplements is now a focus of medical research all over the world.
Experiments have shown that the visual acuity and intelligence of babies whose formula is supplemented with omega-3s quickly surpass those of babies on regular formula.
And these discoveries just scratch the surface of the new applications of DHA and EPA!
