Do You Want the Facts on Concentrated Fish Oil?
First I would like to tell you about natural fish oil. Natural fish oil is oil that is squeezed from the flesh of the fish. The best fish are fish from the colder oceans, like the Southern Ocean off the coast of New Zealand. These fish contain the most Omega-3 fatty acids, although oil that is just squeezed does not have a very high level of Omega-3 fatty acids. The oil usually has contaminants in it, such as Mercury and PCBs and other nasties. Concentrated fish oil on the other hand has gone through a process called molecular distillation, this coupled with the process of winterization, where the fish oil is chilled and the impurities drawn out of it. By the time this process is complete over ninety per cent of the oil has been discarded. The remaining oil is almost pure Omega-3 fatty acids. The presence of Omega-3 fatty acids have been proved to help prevent strokes and heart attacks. They do this by preventing the platelets in the blood from coming together and making themselves int
