New Beginnings Essential Fatty Acids


Carlson Cod Liver Oil, lemon flavored
$35

Taken from cold Norwegian waters, this lemon-flavored high quality liquid Cod Liver Oil from Carlson Labs is free of contaminants and pleasant tasting. Dr. Mary Megson found that the natural vitamin A in Cod Liver Oil helps support proper vision, behavior, awareness and immune system function. Carlson’s Liquid Cod Liver Oil is also high in Omega-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA), in which many children and adults are deficient. Adequate levels of these Essential Fatty acids are of vital importance for maintaining good health. Deficiencies can be a factor in skin conditions, leaky gut, cognitive functioning, inappropriate pain response, poor muscle reflexes, immune system function, inflammation and many other conditions.
Carlson’s Cod Liver Oil is regularly tested using AOAC international protocols for potency and purity by an independent, FDA registered laboratory and found to be free of detectable levels of mercury, cadmium, lead, PCB's and 28 other contaminants. Carlson’s Liquid Cod Liver Oil is available in unflavored and lemon flavored varieties.

Evening Primrose Oil 100 capsules
$19


Evening primrose oil is extracted from the evening primrose plant (Oenothera biennis), a wildflower found in North America, Europe and parts of Asia. The plant's pale yellow flowers open in the evening--hence its common name--and the oil is extracted from its seeds. Evening Primrose Oil contains linolenic acid (LA) and gamma linolenic acid (GLA), essential ingredients in the vital production of prostaglandins within the human body. Prostaglandins are hormone-like compounds that are in constant use throughout the body, controlling inflammation, clotting the blood, and synthesizing cholesterol. Prostaglandins cannot be stored so they need to be replenished regularly.
The process of prostaglandin production can be blocked or seriously slowed down by the lifestyle and diet of the modern world. Factors such as ageing, high cholesterol, stress, high alcohol intake, diabetes, saturated fats, refined carbohydrates and viral infections may result in prostaglandin deficiency. The high GLA content in EPO may be the answer to ensuring prostaglandin production remains at its peak.
