OptiMega-3™ Liquid by Bioclinic Naturals

Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil improve a number of cardiovascular risk factors, including lowering of atherosclerotic burden, reducing triglyceride levels and blood pressure, and improving platelet and vascular function. Purified fish oils are free of many contaminants, such as heavy metals and PCBs, which continue to be a growing problem associated with the consumption of fish.

• Optimal 2:1 ratio EPA to DHA
• The pharmaceutical grade omega-3 blend is the only fish oil in the world to have achieved the highest USP standard verifying the quality and consistency of the fish oil
• Stringent quality control standards ensure that this highly purified fish oil concentrate is free from lipid peroxides and environmental pollutants, including heavy metals, pesticides, dioxins, PCBs and other harmful compounds
• Omega-3 fish oil is sourced from wild anchovies, sardines, and/or mackerel, one of the best natural sources of EPA and DHA
• Harvested through sustainable fishing practices
• These small fish are less likely to be exposed to toxins because they are short lived, and low on the food chain
• Wild fish are superior to farmed fish as they not only have more omega-3s, but contain less saturated fat and no antibiotic or hormone residues
• Delicious Vanilla, Peach & Orange Swirl flavor in a creamy liquid format
• Contains only naturally sourced flavors and sweeteners
• No fishy smell or aftertaste
• Natural vitamin E used as a preservative

Additional Information

Refrigerate after opening.

Shake well before use.

The antihypertensive effect of fish oil may potentially reduce the need or dosage for blood pressure medications, and patients should be closely monitored. Because fish oil has an antithrombotic effect, caution is advised for those on anticlotting, antiplatelet, or anticoagulant medications, or those at high risk of bleeding.

At doses greater than 3 g per day, hyperglycemia has been observed in diabetics and those with hypertriglyceridemia, and close monitoring of patients on antidiabetic medication is recommended. Benefit has been shown when fish oil is taken with statins, SSRIs, anticonvulsant, and cytotoxic medications.
