2 MedOmega Fish Oil 2800: Balanced, high-concentrate fish oil rich in omega-3 s DHA and EPA Our bodies require DHA and EPA for optimal health. DHA and EPA are recognized in today s scientific research as vital nutrients for promoting healthy cardiovascular, brain, nerve, vision, joint, skin and immune systems. DHA is a major building block in the retina of the eye and brain. EPA helps to maintain a healthy cardiovascular system, emotional health and well-being. Carlson MedOmega Fish Oil 2800 is a delicious natural orange flavored balanced concentrate, rich in the healthy omega-3 s DHA and EPA. Why Take a High Concentrate Fish Oil? People with certain health conditions may benefit from consuming higher amounts of DHA and EPA than they could easily get from diet alone. MedOmega Fish Oil 2800 makes it easy for you to obtain the omega-3 s you need for optimal health. This professional strength dietary supplement has been concentrated to provide 2800 mg of total omega-3 s per teaspoonful and a balance of 1200 mg of DHA and 1200 mg of EPA. MedOmega Fish Oil 2800 is made from cold ocean-water fish and bottled in Norway at the source to insure maximum freshness. And, our Norwegian fish oil is so pure and fresh! The pleasant natural orange flavor encourages you to take it by the teaspoonful, mix it with smoothies, foods and even try it on popcorn and salads! All Carlson fish oil labels provide our quality assurance guarantee. As they are regularly tested, you can be asssured that you are getting only the finest fish oil supplement.

3 Why Carlson Fish Oils? Since the 1980's, the Carlson family has been visiting Norwegian fish oil plants, selecting only the finest fresh Norwegian oils produced from deep, unpolluted, cold-water fish. We pledge to continue monitoring our Norwegian fish oil manufacturing and to continue with extensive independent testing to assure Carlson Fish Oils are only the finest. In addition, natural vitamin E is added to prevent oxidation of the fish oil and to preserve freshness. Carlson Liquid Fish Oils are bottled in Norway for outstanding freshness. Carlson Fish Oil products are tested by an independent FDA-registered U.S. laboratory. In addition to assaying to assure label amounts of Omega-3 s, several other quality tests are performed including freshness and purity tests. Quality Assured on Every Carlson Label: CONTAMINANT - FREE This product is regularly tested (using AOAC international protocols) for freshness, potency and purity by an independent, FDA-registered laboratory and has been determined to be fresh, fully-potent and free of detectable levels of mercury, cadmium, lead, PCB s and 28 other contaminants.

4 The Healthy Benefits of Omega-3 Oils Because of their unique and vital functions, our bodies require DHA and EPA for optimal health. OMEGA-3 s aid in our well-being by PROMOTING and SUPPORTING: CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH DHA and EPA help maintain a healthy stable heartbeat. DHA and EPA help maintain blood vessel health to support circulation. DHA and EPA may support artery wall elasticity. Dietary intake of EPA and DHA is now being recognized as a safe and effective method for maintaining healthy triglyceride levels. BRAIN and NERVE FUNCTION As a vital component of our brain tissue and neurons, DHA supports cognitive function. By improving membrane fluidity, DHA may help support nerve transmission processes. Increased levels of DHA in the brain may serve to protect and enhance the lifespan of neurons. HEALTHY VISION DHA is found in substantial amounts in the retina and is important for normal vision. IMMUNE SYSTEM HEALTH DHA and EPA are needed for balanced eicosanoid formation, which supports balanced and healthy immune responses. HEALTHY JOINTS and MOVEMENT DHA and EPA support healthy joints and comfortable movement by promoting healthy levels of eicosanoids, including: prostaglandins, prostacyclins, leukotrienes and thromboxanes.
