Vegepa - pure omega-3 EPA from marine fish oil, with anti-inflammatory omega-6 GLA
Product DescriptionVegepa is a patented formulation containing a unique ratio of ultra-pure EPA from marine fish oil and GLA from organic virgin evening primrose oil, providing a highly concentrated source of omega-3 and omega-6 long-chain fatty acids. As such, omega 3 fish oil Vegepa combines the benefits that both these natural substances bring to the body. Without compromising on ingredients or concentration, omega 3 fish oil Vegepa Chewables provide the benefits of highly concentrated omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in a tasty, orange flavoured, chewable capsule. Combining ultra-pure EPA from marine fish oil with GLA from organic virgin evening primrose oil (containing immune-supporting triterpenes), this unique formulation provides cells with the nutrients required for efficient chemical signalling, integral to healthy brain function. We use only natural flavourings, to retain purity and keep our products free from artificial additives, colourings and preservatives. Vegepa Chewables are completely sugar-free, as well as being free from artificial sweeteners.
Vegepa Nutritional InformationIngredients: capsule shell (fish gelatine, vegetable glycerol); EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) concentrate from marine fish oil; organic cold-pressed virgin evening primrose oil; antioxidant: vitamin E.

*20% of EURDA Health Benefits of Fatty AcidsOmega 3 fatty acids play an important part in the functioning of every living cell in the body. Specifically they may help the body in several ways including: improving the circulatory system, aiding concentration, maintaining a balanced mood and keeping joints in good condition. The EPA in Vegepa is derived from fish oil - the highest yielding source of long-chain omega-3 fats. This fatty acid forms a vital part of the diet as it enables the body to produce many substances that are necessary for health and well-being. EPA also plays a vital role in the structure, development and functioning of the brain. It can benefit sufferers of an array of mental and physical illnesses as well as lowering the risk of many potential health problems. The EPO in Vegepa fish oil is derived from the cold-pressing of evening primrose seeds. When EPO is unprocessed and unrefined it is a rich source of botanical triterpenes - hormone-like substances which play an important role in immune function. EPO is renowned for oiling the joints and nourishing the skin, hair and nails. A rich source of the omega-6 GLA, the importance of EPO in relation to the structure of cell membrances and, consequently, effective cell signalling, cannot be over-emphasised.

Product DescriptionVegetarian and vegan supplement Echiomega offers a completely unique source of plant-based omega-3, -6 & -9 fatty acids, suitable for both vegetarians and vegans. Containing Echium Seed Oil, Echiomega capsules deliver superior health benefits over the commonly available plant oil preparations. Echium Seed Oil is the richest commercially available source of the omega-3 stearidonic acid (SDA), which is converted to the important long-chain omega-3 EPA up to 5 times more than the short-chain omega-3 ALA found in other plant-based oils such as flaxseed.
Echium Seed Oil also contains other beneficial fatty acids including the potent anti-inflammatory omega-6 gamma linolenic acid (GLA) as well as the omega-9 oleic acid, for which olive oil owes its health-supporting properties. Research suggests that SDA in combination with GLA raises blood cell EPA levels more effectively than EPA alone. This unique combination of natural fatty acids provides cells with the nutrients required for efficient chemical signalling, integral to healthy brain function and the maintenance of overall well-being. Changes in diet and lifestyle have affected the body's natural ability to produce long-chain fatty acids in sufficient quantities, so it is important to boost the intake of omega fatty acids as part of the daily diet. Our Echium oil vegetarian and vegan supplement Echiomega is the ideal nutritional supplement for those who are vegetarian, vegan or allergic to fish, to help boost the levels of the important omega fats in the diet. Echiomega Nutritional InformationIngredients: echium oil; capsule shell (modified starch, glycerine, carrageenan, disodium phosphate, lecithin).
