Information About Shaklee OmegaGuard® Ultra-Pure, Pharmaceutical-Grade Fish Oil Supplement
By Donovan Baldwin

According to both the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the American Heart Association (AHA), heart disease...most 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 your risk of heart disease, the AHA (American Heart Association) recommends eating two servings of fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids each week. It turns out, however, most Americans eat fish only three times per month or less. And, there are growing concerns among scientists and the public about unsafe levels of contaminants such as mercury and lead that are now commonly found in many fish.

• As I write this, there have been over 4,500 research studies on omega-3 fatty acids’ effects on overall health, conducted in the last 25 years.
  
  
• The average American gets only 0.1 to 0.2 g/day of EPA and DHA, even though the American Heart Association (AHA) 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.
  
  
• A typical American diet provides 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.
  
  
• Some studies indicate that high levels of omega-3 fatty acids might promote cardiovascular health and help retain normal blood pressure and triglyceride levels.*
  
  
• According to the AHA, certain, specific, types of fish may contain high levels of mercury, PCBs, dioxins, and other environmental contaminants. Generally, it is the older and larger fish contain higher levels of contaminants.
