The natural solution for maintaining blood lipid balance

Protecting your heart means managing your blood lipids. But most supplements on the market either target cholesterol or triglycerides - which means they only supply one piece of the heart health puzzle. Introducing Omeganol.

Manufactured by Calgenex, Omeganol is the first dietary supplement to combine the triglyceride-lowering properties of omega 3s with the cholesterol balancing activity of tocotrienols.* Which means Omeganol delivers double-protection to your heart.*

Along with a heart-healthy diet and adequate exercise, use Omeganol to:


Cardiovascular support from earth and sea

Omeganol is not a drug. It is a safe, natural dietary supplement made from the fruits of nature: cold-water fatty fish, palm fruit and annatto flower.

  • Cold-water fatty fish are naturally abundant in omega 3 fatty acids - those good-for-you fats that have been scientifically proven to help lower triglycerides. According to the FDA, "supportive, but not conclusive evidence shows that consumption of EPA and DHA fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease." *
  • Palm fruit is one of the world's richest sources of tocotrienols - phyto-nutrients that act as powerful antioxidants and help manage cholesterol levels*
  • Annatto flower is another botanical source of tocotrienols

Omeganol

Purity
The omega 3s in Omeganol are sourced from the purest wild sardine and anchovy, which are fished in cold, deep, pristine ocean waters. All of our starting materials are molecularly distilled, which concentrates the important EPA and DHA, while filtering out impurities.

Quality
Omeganol is manufactured according to cGMP (current Good Manufacturing Practices) - a set of standards set by the FDA to ensure a quality product. It also complies with the Council for Responsible Nutrition's omega 3 standards - which strictly limit contaminants and ensure freshness.

Form
Omega 3s occur in cold-water fatty fish (as EPA and DHA) as well as some plants such as flax (as ALA), so many people think they can substitute flax for fish. However, your body uses EPA and DHA - not ALA. That's why experts recommend fish oil as the preferred source of omega 3s - and why you'll find fish oil-derived EPA and DHA in Omeganol.

Similarly, there are four types of tocotrienols in nature: alpha, gamma, delta and beta. Research suggests that the delta variety may be 30 times more effective than other types - which is why Omeganol features a 9:1 ratio of delta tocotrienols to gamma tocotrienols.

Value
Until now there has not been an effective method to extract tocotrienol rich fractions (TRF) from whole botanicals. Omeganol is the premiere product combining the health benefits of tocotrienols and Omega 3s. And while typical fish oil supplements contain only 180 mg of EPA and 120 mg of DHA, Omeganol contains 400 mg of EPA and 250 mg of DHA per serving.

Supplement Facts

Omeganol Supplement Facts

 


What are triglycerides?

"Triglyceride" is the chemical term for a specific type of fat found in the bloodstream. Triglycerides serve as important sources of fuel in normal metabolism. But some people manufacture too many triglycerides - and that puts their hearts at risk.

It's estimated that as many as 47 million Americans have elevated triglycerides. If your doctor has informed you that you're one of them, there's a word you need to know: omega 3 fatty acids.

What are Omega 3s?

Omega 3s are good fats that are just as important to your health as vitamins and minerals. However, since your body can't manufacture them, you have to get omega 3s through your diet - and many people do not get enough.

Lower your triglycerides with omega 3s

Why are omega 3s so important? Because they have been scientifically proven to lower triglycerides.* In fact, a 1997 review study - which looked at the results of 65 human clinical trials on fish oil supplementation - concluded that about 3 grams a day of EPA + DHA reduced triglyceride levels 25-35%! The evidence is so strong that in 2002, the American Heart Association officially endorsed omega 3s (specifically EPA and DHA) for lowering triglycerides. And the FDA concluded that "supportive, but not conclusive evidence shows that consumption of EPA and DHA fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease."

What is cholesterol?

Cholesterol is a white, fatty substance found in the bloodstream. There are two types of cholesterol: LDL and HDL. LDL cholesterol is considered bad because it transports cholesterol from the liver through the bloodstream, where it can be deposited . HDL cholesterol is considered good because it acts as the bus that picks up cholesterol from the bloodstream and carries it back to the liver for disposal.

About 30% of American adults have total cholesterol levels above 200 mg/mL. That's why it's important to know about tocotrienols.

What are tocotrienols?

Found within select natural botanicals, tocotrienols are a specialized class of phyto-nutrients that can help you effectively manage your cholesterol levels.* These powerful antioxidants also protect against free radical damage.

Manage your cholesterol with tocotrienols

Over a dozen studies have been published on the pharmacological effects of tocotrienols. Several have found that tocotrienols help maintain cholesterol levels that are already within the normal range.* Others show that tocotrienols protect cholesterol from oxidation - which further supports the health of the arteries.*

But keep in mind...not all tocotrienols are the same. There are four types of tocotrienols: alpha, gamma, delta and beta. Research suggests that the delta variety may be 30 times more effective than the others!
