OmegaGuard™

Dietary Supplement
Ultra-pure, full-spectrum potency of seven omega-3s


According to the Centers for Disease Control and the American Heart Association (AHA),

THE CHALLENGE

heart disease — specifically coronary artery disease — is still the number one cause of death of
men and women in the United States. And while it was once considered a man's disease, today
more women than men die from heart disease. And unfortunately, at least 100 million Americans
have one or more risk factors for heart disease.

To reduce the risk of heart disease, the AHA recommends eating two servings of fish rich in
omega-3 fatty acids each week. But most Americans eat fish only three times per month or less.
Moreover, there are growing concerns about unsafe levels of contaminants such as mercury and
lead that are now commonly found in many fish.

OMEGAGUARD


Ultra-pure OmegaGuard, the world’s finest fish oil that delivers a full spectrum of seven
omega-3s including EPA, DHA, ALA, and more.

• Research shows that high levels of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids may:
-Help reduce the risk of heart disease†3
-Help retain healthy triglyceride levels*5
-Help retain normal blood pressure*4
-Support brain2, visual1, and joint function*6
• Over 4,500 research studies on omega-3 fatty acids' effects on overall health have been
conducted in the last 25 years.
• The average American intake of EPA and DHA is only 0.1 to 0.2 g/day, even though the
American Heart Association recommends at least two fish meals per week to provide an
intake of about 0.3 to 0.5 g/day of EPA and DHA.
• Most American diets provide more than ten times as much omega-6 than omega-3 fatty acids,
even though there is general scientific agreement that individuals should consume more
omega-3 and less omega-6 fatty acids to promote good health.
Research shows that high levels of omega-3 fatty acids promote cardiovascular health and help
retain normal blood pressure and triglyceride levels.*

† Supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA fatty acids
may reduce the risk of heart disease.
