VECTOMEGA®

Vectomega® is unique in that it is an omega-3 fatty acid supplement in tablet form. It is extracted from the head of wild-farmed salmon, which is rich in phospholipids. Phospholipids are very effective transporters of omega 3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), and research on Vectomega shows intracellular absorption rates 50 times higher than fish oils.

Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) [Phospholipids, Omega 3 [DHA (docosahexaenoic) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic)] and hydrolyzed peptides]
In an open clinical trial participants experienced significant support in healthy total cholesterol levels already within the normal range, and a 13% increase in HDL levels.*^1,2 In comparison, traditional fish oil studies that have obtained similar results used a range of 3.6 g - 4 g or of fish oil/day (equating to approx. 3,400 mg a day of combined DHA and EPA). Therefore, it took over 50 times the amount of combined EPA/DHA from fish oil to achieve the same results as two tablets of Vectomega.

Did You Know?

The Atlantic salmon used in the production of Vectomega® are native to the cold waters of the North Atlantic Ocean. The salmon are contained in ocean fjords in Norway and Scotland. Fjords are narrow inlets of water between steep cliffs. Special marine-friendly nets at the ends of the fjords prevent the salmon from leaving the fjord. Because the population is managed, there is no danger of overfishing, yet the fish have all the advantages of ocean life – fresh, clean water, and natural diets. No part of the salmon is wasted – the head tissue (rich in phospholipids) is used for Vectomega, and the rest of the body is filleted for food. The entire process is completely sustainable and responsibly managed.
