Product Overview
Description
Athletes of any level with a high performance output should be supplementing with ICON Nutrition’s OMEGA 3 to help reduce inflammation on a cellular level, accelerate recovery and enhance an athlete’s ability to perform at maximum capacity. This makes OMEGA 3 a go-to supplement for Crossfitters, Olympic weightlifters and elite level athletes.
TOTAL PRODUCT TRANSPARENCY
ICON Nutrition’s OMEGA 3 is molecular distilled and cold filtrated to ensure premium purity. By using the world’s finest wild caught anchovies from sustainable fisheries in Peru we secure the purest and most concentrated fish oil.
We then selectively ensure each dosage is in a high-spec 3:2 EPA/DHA ratio for optimum human absorption rates.
Each OMEGA 3 capsule is encapsulated in bovine gelatin with glycerol then used to ensure the gelatin remains flexible and soft. Omega 3 fatty acids oxidize very quickly. Encapsulating the oil in a bovine gelatin capsule preserves freshness and purity and we feel it is a far more superior method than serving Omega 3 in a liquid form.
A mixed antioxidant tocopherol extracted from a natural source is added to the fish oil to further prevent oxidative damage, ensuring OMEGA 3‘s freshness and purity.
ACHIEVING A 1:1 RATIO
Historically, scientists believe that our ancestors consumed close to a 1:1 dietary ratio of omega 3 and omega 6. Today research suggests that this ratio has changed radically to somewhere between 20:1 and 50:1 with an over consumption of Omega 6 over Omega 3. This pushes our bodies into a pro-inflammatory condition which makes us more susceptible to heart disease, arthritis, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, autoimmune diseases and obesity.

*Competing athletes may benefit from a higher dose of EPA/DHA (5-7 grams per day or 10-14 Omega 3 capsules) which they should get from food sources such as wild caught fish. if this is not possible then an Omega 3 supplement to help boost EPA/DHA intake should be considered.
