Essential Fatty Acids!

Essential fatty acids fall into two groups: omega-3 and omega-6.

Let's revisit this topic and focus on which NSP products contain the essential fatty acids you need most.

DHA--Essential Fat for Your Brain:

DHA is vital to brain development and maintenance and nervous system function. In children, DHA is correlated with the development of congnitive skills. In adults, DHA supports brain tissue health and maintains brain function. This DHA and Omega 3 product contains the 5:1 ratio of DHA to EPA found in breast milk.

Omega 3 Hi EPA--Heart-Healthy Nutrition:

Omega-3 fatty acids are one of four basic fats that the body derives from foods and are especially good for the heart. They are also beneficial to the structural system and to the skin. Omega 3 Hi EPA softgels contain approximately 1,000 mg fish oil, which has a 33:16 ratio of EPA to DHA. EPA is especially good for the heart, and DHA is an important fatty acid for brain health. It also contains lemon to significantly reduce the aftertaste from fish oil and to reduce gas.

Flax Seed Oil--SAll of the Benefits without the Fish:

NSP Flax Seed Oil (liquid) contains 6,600-8,400 mg of alpha-linolenic acid (an omega-3 EFA) per serving; that's two times the amount of omega-3s that are present in fish oil. It also contains lignans--active polysaccharides that possess impressive health-related properties and offer protection to the immune system. Flax has balanced levels of Omega-3 and -6 EFAs.

Super GLA Oil Blend--Fatty Acid Support:

Super GLA provides 130 mg linoleic and gamma-linolenic acid (essential omega-6 fatty acids) per serving from evening primrose, black currant and borage oils. In the body, these fatty acids can be converted into eicosanoids. This group of hormone-like compounds regulates many important bodily functions and processes, including maintaining blood pressure and platelet aggregation levels that are already within normal ranges, supporting immunity, and regulating gastric secretions and hormonal responses to nerve impulses. Super GLA also provides nutritional support to the female reproductive system. Super GLA contains the best evening primrose, black currant and borage i=oils--in a proprietary blend.

Evening Primrose Oil:

Evening Primrose Oil contains gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an essential fatty acid that assists the body in producing prostaglandins (messengers in the body that perform hundreds of important functions). Without an adequate supply of GLA, optimal health is impossible to achieve. Each capsule provides 45 mg of gamma-linolenic acid and 300 mg of linoleic acid, together with 15 IU of vitamin E as a protective antioxidant. Other beneficial oils--linoleic, oleic and palmitic--are contained in each 500 mg capsule.

Black Currant Oil:

Black Currant Oil provides 40-45 mg gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) per serving along with other important polyunsaturated fatty acids. Before the discovery of black currant oil, the only other known sources of GLA were mother's milk and evening primrose oil. Each black currant oil capsule contains 16-18 percent GLA, provides two essential fatty acids--linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid--and the unique stearidonic acid.

DHA--Can't Wait to Get More!

"Ned Crofts is a Manager in my downline. He was the beneficiary of a sample bottle of DHA that I received from NSP Home Office. I thought this product would work well to benefit his central nervous system. It did. He noticed a difference in one hour.* He took three capsules a day for 10 days and said it was the best 10 days he's had in a long time. He was disappointed when the sample ran out and can't wait to get more at Leaders Conference."
--Randy Anderson, Regional Manager, Idaho Falls, Idaho.
