What are Essential Fatty Acids?
Essential fatty acids are polyunsaturated fats that your body needs but cannot produce, so they must be consumed in the foods you eat and in supplements like Ultimate Omega 2X. This formula aims to help you create a balance of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, to ensure proper production of eicosanoids. These are hormone-like compounds that affect virtually every system in your body – from regulating pain and inflammation to helping you maintain proper blood pressure and cholesterol levels to promoting fluid-nerve transmission.

A Balancing Act
In our modern, industrialized food system, Omega-3 fatty acids have become largely absent from the food chain, while Omega-6 fatty acids have become overabundant, even if you pride yourself on eating a healthy diet. Decades of scientific evidence indicates that this fatty-acid imbalance can contribute to chronic inflammation and a variety of chronic health issues. Fish is the primary food source for the Omega-3’s you need, but Americans don’t eat enough fish on a regular basis to help create the necessary balance with Omega-6, so a supplement often becomes necessary. The most beneficial Omega-3’s that you’re likely missing are EPA and DHA, represented in this formula by purified deep-sea fish oil from anchovies and sardines.

Oh My, Omega!
The ratio of Omega fatty acids within your cell membranes directly influences whether your immune response synthesizes beneficial or potentially harmful molecules (free radicals). When your immune system is triggered – by injury, allergy, or infection, for example – fatty acids are released from your cell membranes. These fatty acids are converted into molecules as part of your body’s natural-healing response. A large body of scientific evidence indicates that Omega-3’s, as in Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega 2X, help regulate your immune response naturally and support internal-repair systems that operate in response to stress and injury.

Wild Caught. Pure.
Every batch of Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega 2X is non-GMO and tested by a third-party certified lab for environmental toxins, including heavy metals. All fish oils are in the triglyceride form and surpass the strictest international standards for purity and freshness.
