Vitamin E Helps Reduce Oxidation of Fish Oils

(when taken together)

Proper supplementation of Vitamin E and Fish/Krill Oil provides protection of the Omega 3 in the gut and after absorption!  The synergistic effects of the two taken together are strong - especially the anti-inflammatory benefits (and inflammation is the bio-marker for many illnesses and diseases!).

     

 Omega 3 fatty acids are polyunsaturated (PUFA) and as such they are prone to oxidation both in the supplements, in the gut and after absorption. Oxidized PUFA not only have no benefit, they are very harmful because they cause oxidative stress in the body. For this reason, the requirements for Vitamin E increase with the higher intake of Omega 3. This is well documented and accepted by the National Academy of Sciences and the scientific community. Therefore, combining tocopherols with Omega 3 assures that they maintain their freshness in the gut and the body after absorption.  

 

 UNIQUE E MIXED TOCOPHEROLSMixed tocopherols rich in gamma-tocopherol (like UNIQUE E Mixed Tocopherols) are strong antioxidants and provide anti-inflammatory benefits. For this reason they protect the Omega 3 from oxidation and have synergistic anti-inflammatory effects.

 

UNIQUE Omega Krill Oil contains the three most important elements the human body needs to function properly: phospholipids, omega-3 essential fatty acids, and antioxidants. Unlike fish oil (which is only 61-65% bioavailable), it mimics the very membranes of your cells... thus penetrating so easily that you get 95-98% bioavailability.UNIQUE OMEGA Krill Oil 

  • 95-98% of the functional phospholipids that are the building blocks of life, but that don't exist in fish oil.
  • 95-98% of the health-giving omega-3s that your body can't make on its own... that are seriously deficient in most Americans... and whose inflammation-fighting power isn't diminished by high ratios of omega-6 as in fish oil.
  • 95-98% of an esterified super-antioxidant found only in krill oil... an ultra-potent nutrient that is stronger than most other antioxidants including Co-Q10 for protection from the free radical damage that promotes aging and disease.
UNIQUE E TOCOTRIENOL 2The doctors on A.C. Grace Company's advisory board recommend including UNIQUE E Tocotrienol in your daily supplementation to assure that you are getting the right amount of Vitamin E in your diet. Tocotrienols have recently been found to be the a great 'little brother" to mixed tocopherols.

Delta-tocotrienols have been found to take a role in cholesterol reduction and cardiovascular disease, influence metabolic syndrome and diabetes, and have shown potential in cancer and chemoprevention.

 

An AM/PM supplementation plan of UNIQUE E Mixed Tocopherols and UNIQUE Omega Krill Oil (1 softgel) with your morning meal and UNIQUE E Tocotrienol and UNIQUE Omega Krill Oil (1 softgel) with your evening meal will help provide a balanced supplementation to help you manage your health and maintain a healthy heart and cardiovascular system, circulatory system, brain cognition, joint support and help manage inflammation issues.

Krill/Fish oil and vitamin E go together

 

BELTSVILLE, MARYLAND - Fish oils are beneficial in the prevention of cancer and cardiovascular disease. They do, however, oxidize very easily and therefore add to the oxidant stress on the body. An experiment was recently carried out by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to see if an increased intake of vitamin E could counteract this detrimental effect of fish oils.

 

Forty men aged 32 to 44 were involved. The men consumed a controlled diet for a total of 28 weeks. For the first 10 weeks they received placebo oil capsules (15 g/day), for the next 10 weeks they received fish oil capsules (15 g/day), and for the last 8 weeks they received the fish oil plus 200 mg of vitamin E (all-rac-alpha-tocopherol). The urinary excretion of peroxidation products (malondialdehyde) more than doubled when the fish oil capsules were introduced but then dropped by a factor of four when vitamin E was added. The vitamin E concentration in the red blood cells dropped very significantly when fish oil was ingested but more than recovered with the vitamin E supplement. It is concluded that the negative effects of fish oil consumption can be overcome by taking them together with vitamin E.

Krill/Fish oil supplements increase requirements for Vitamin E

 

LONDON, ENGLAND - A recent experiment carried out at King's College in London showed that daily intake of fish oil supplement reduces the plasma concentration of vitamin E to below normal range. Nine healthy male subjects were given a daily fish oil supplement containing 2.1 g docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and 0.8 g eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) for a six week period. The proportion of DHA and EPA in the blood increased during the trial while the concentration of very-low-density-lipoprotein-cholesterol and triacylglycerol decreased. Blood pressure fell slightly during treatment, but rose again once the fish oil supplementation was discontinued. Of particular interest was the finding that alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E) concentration in the blood fell from 20 micromol/l to about 10 micromol/l during the experiment. This raises the question whether fish oil supplementation increases the need for antioxidant supplementation.
