1 OMEGA-3 FISH OIL The perfect complement to chiropractic care

2 WHAT ARE OMEGA-3S? Omega-3s are essential fatty acids nutrients that are required for optimal health but cannot be produced by our bodies, and therefore must be consumed through diet or supplementation. The problem is that omega-3s are nearly absent in the typical Western diet, which does not contain enough cold-water fish. Even people who eat fish regularly aren t always getting enough omega-3s, because much of the fish consumed today is farmed and lacks significant amounts of EPA and DHA. Without adequate intake of these omega-3s, cells cannot function properly, and overall health is compromised.* Research shows that a high-quality, purified fish oil supplement is the best source of the most important omega-3s we re missing: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

3 OMEGA-3 FISH OIL n Supports joint mobility and comfort* n Has an excellent safety profile n Is the safest, most effective, and most reliable source of the omega-3s EPA and DHA* WHY QUALITY AND POTENCY MATTER n Poorly manufactured fish oil can easily oxidize, causing rancidity and burping n Rancid oils are a source of harmful free radicals n Effective distillation is critical to removing environmental toxins such as mercury and PCBs n Desired results cannot be achieved without sufficient levels of EPA+DHA

4 THE BODY S NATURAL HEALING RESPONSE Omega-3 essential fatty acids have been investigated by decades of scientific research, which has shown that increased intake of omega-3s supports normal function of the body s many systems including joints and surrounding tissues.* That s because when there are more omega-3s within our cell membranes, they promote the production of certain beneficial molecules (called prostaglandins) that support the body s natural healing response.* In contrast, when our cells do not contain enough omega-3s this response is compromised.* Ensuring adequate intake of omega-3s provides the nutritional foundation for healthy joints and tissues.* My patients have tried many brands of fish oil, but once they taste the difference in the Nordic Naturals products, they come in asking for it by name. I don t have to sell it; it sells itself. Because of the quality, purity, and triglyceride form, Nordic Naturals is the only brand that I am confident in recommending to my patients, family, and friends. John K.

7 THE PERFECT COMPLEMENT TO CHIROPRACTIC CARE Chiropractic care supports neck and back health by addressing biomechanical misalignment of the spine and extremities. Supplementing with a purified, high-quality fish oil complements chiropractic care by providing the omega-3 essential fatty acids needed to support normal function of the body s many systems, including joints and surrounding tissues.* Simultaneously addressing both structural and nutritional imbalances maximizes the body s ability to achieve and maintain optimal back and neck health. OMEGA-3 FROM FISH OR FLAX? Omega-3 fatty acids fall into two major categories: marine derived (fish) and plant derived (flaxseed). This is often confusing, and many think the two are interchangeable. Fish oil contains the marine-derived omega-3s EPA and DHA. Flaxseed contains the plantderived omega-3 alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), which can be partially converted to EPA and DHA, but that conversion rate is very low and can be inhibited by lifestyle and health factors. Research shows that approximately 5% of ALA converts to EPA, and just 1% converts to DHA, under optimal conditions. While flaxseed and flaxseed oil may contain many health-promoting benefits, they do not provide you with the necessary amounts of EPA and DHA.
