ArcticPure
For Cardiovascular Health and General Well-Being!
Essential fatty acids are crucial for health - as much so as daily vitamins and
minerals. And fish oil is one of the best sources. Now Source Naturals offers
you three premium fish oil concentrates. ARCTICPURE DHA is an essential brain
nutrient. ARCTICPURE EPA is ideal for cardiovascular support and joint mobility.
ARCTICPURE EFA contains a blend of healthful fatty acids.
Consumption of omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.
FDA evaluated the data and determined that, although there is scientific evidence
supporting the claim, the evidence is not conclusive. All ARCTICPURE products
contain fish oils from the cleanest and coldest body of water, the Arctic Ocean.
A series of distillation processes concentrates and extracts beneficial fatty
acids, while guaranteeing the absence of heavy metals and PCB's.
EFA's: Healthy Fats
Essential fatty acids (EFA's) support an amazing variety of cellular processes.
In addition to their cardiovascular benefits, they maintain cell wall and membrane
integrity, generate energy, produce hormones and support brain, nerve, and eye
function. Yet too many people today eat diets that are high in saturated or hydrogenated
fats, but low in healthy fats - essential fatty acids. ARCTICPURE softgels are
an excellent source of EFA's, including docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), eicosapentaenoic
acid (EPA), and gamma linolenic acid (GLA).
ARCTICPURE DHA.
DHA is an omega-3 long chain fatty acid that is the primary building block of
the brain and retina. The brain is 60% fat, and DHA is the most abundant fatty
acid in the brain, comprising 25-35%. DHA is found in even greater concentrations
- 50-60% - in the retina. DHA is critical for infant development, especially the
rapid cerebral and eye development that occurs during pregnancy and the first
few months after birth. It is an important nutrient for pregnant women and nursing
mothers. DHA also has been associated with optimal memory function, visual acuity,
and a positive mental state. It is an integral component of all membranes with
electrical activity, including brain and nerve cells. ARCTICPURE DHA contains
275 mg of DHA in each strawberry-flavored softgel.
ARCTICPURE EPA.
ARCTICPURE EPA is available in lemon-flavored softgels, supplying 500 mg of EPA,
another healthful omega-3 fatty acid. Epidemiological and animal studies have
shown that EPA supports a healthy cardiovascular system. It is important for healthy
skin and is a precursor of prostaglandins, thromboxanes and leukotrienes - chemical
mediators that help regulate physiological processes including blood pressure
and blood clotting.
ARCTICPURE EFA.
ARCTICPURE EFA provides 150 mg of EPA, 100 mg of DHA, and 75 mg of GLA (gammalinolenic
acid) from borage oil in each lemonflavored
softgel. GLA is an essential polyunsaturated fatty acid. It is used by most cells
to produce the soothing, intracellular, hormonelike messengers
known as series 1 prostaglandins (PGE1), which help maintain the balance of many
functions in the body. GLA supports the immune system and helps maintain healthy
skin and circulation. This essential nutrient is incorporated into our cell membranes,
where it helps to maintain fluidity and permeability.
Stabilized for Freshness
ARCTICPURE oils are enhanced with antioxidants such as ascorbyl palmitate, vitamin
E and rosemary oil, for extended shelf life. Every batch is extensively tested
to be sure it is free of environmental contaminants. And ARCTICPURE oils contain
natural fruit flavors, so there is no fishy taste! ARCTICPURE softgels are pleasing
to both children and adults.
