Concentrated EPA

EPA-DHA 6:1 is an exciting formula that provides 500 mg of pharmaceutical-grade EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) per softgel—specifically designed to maximize the benefits of this important essential fatty acid.* 

  • Features a 6:1 ratio of EPA to DHA per softgel—perfect for some patients who may receive greater benefit from EPA rather than DHA such as those experiencing minor pain.*
  • Provided in pleasant-smelling, enteric-coated softgels to avoid premature dissolution in the stomach and reduce the likelihood of repeating (burp-up) in susceptible individuals.*
  • Delivers EPA and DHA in ethyl ester form directly to the intestinal tract for optimal absorption.*
  • A unique antioxidant blend of vitamin E, ascorbyl palmitate, and rosemary stabilizes the oil for maximum freshness.*

Metagenics Announces A New Lineup Of Omega-3 Fatty Acid Formulas

All fish oil products are NOT the same. Variations in raw materials and manufacturing can result in huge differences in quality and effectiveness. At Metagenics, each purity-certified omega-3 fatty acid formula is manufactured with close attention to detail, and each batch undergoes exhaustive in-house and third-party testing.  Their obsession with quality means the following advantages:

  • Pharmaceutical-grade, ultra refined olis (with virtually no fish taste or smell)
  • Custom small batch production
  • Stringent testing for peticides and heavy metal residue - every batch of oil thoroughky tested at every step, from raw material to packaging
  • Third-party certification of purity and optimal quality
  • Proprietary antioxidant blend for freshness and stability (up to 300% longer shelf life!)
  • A variety of formulas for a customized approach
  • Patient-friendly delivery forms including enteric coated and lemon flavored for greater compliance and satisfaction

You will appreciate this difference in terms of taste, ease-of-use and support for improved health and well-being.*

What Makes A High Quality Omega-3 Formula?
NOT ALL FISH OIL PRODUCTS ARE THE SAME.

There are THREE important qualifications that define a superior fish oil concentrate:

  1. Raw material selection. Metagenics' Norwegian manufacturing partner only uses fresh, clean, deep water fish that are known to be high in important omega-3 EFAs.
  2. The manufacturing process. Our ultra-refined omega-3 oils under-go a proprietary tefinement process that includes the following production steps:
    • De-acidification to remove phospholipids, color bodies and other soluble and insoluble impurities from fish oil.
    • Bleaching (not with actual bleach, but clay and/or active carbon and heat) to reduce color pigments, heavy metals, oxidative products and other environmental pollutants.
    • Deodorization to remove volatile materials that affect flavor, taste and stability of the oil. This process also dramatically removes PCBs and dioxins
    • Molecular distillation concentrates and purifies the oil
    • Winterization cools the oil and then filters particles that form at cold temperatures.
  3. Quality control & assurance. Every batch of oil is thoroughly tested at every step, from raw material to packaging.

You can also sense the difference of a quality EFA formula. Ultra-refined fish oils should have virtually no fish taste or smell, and should posess a light, clear color (unless enterically coated).
