Do you know why Omega 3 with DHA is so good for you?

Most people don’t – and as a result they do not enjoy the level of vibrant health that they should!

Instead they suffer from avoidable ailments such as heart disease. Even worse, many people as they get older, gradually ‘lose’ their mind and live out their twilight years not even recognizing their friends or family.

Scientists throughout the world believe a great deal of the suffering caused from these diseases could be avoided by adequate intake of an essential Omega 3 fatty acid found in fish oil called DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid)

Omega 3 from fish oil is better than plant based Omega 3 for two main reasons:

• Only the Omega 3 in fish oil contains both DHA and EPA

• Omega 3 from plants only contains ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) which needs to be converted to DHA and EPA for the body to use.

However there are problems with many fish oils sold on the world market today:

• Most of them are low in DHA

• Most of them are not concentrated

• Most of them are not molecularly distilled to ensure that all contaminants are removed.

• Most of them use a mixture of all types of fish oil from around the world which may have become rancid.

In 2003 Xtend-Life overcame all these problems by developing a pure pharmaceutical grade, molecularly distilled, concentrated Omega 3/DHA fish oil ester using a cold, deep water fish called Hoki from the pristine Southern Ocean around New Zealand.

The oil is manufactured in an ester form to allow the active ingredients to be easily absorbed (most companies use a triglyceride form, which the body then has to covert into esters).

The Hoki fish we use is part of a New Zealand controlled sustainable fishery. It is harvested, processed and encapsulated in New Zealand under strict controls….

Because of the processes followed by Xtend-Life, our pure Omega 3/DHA Esters are free of ANY:

•  PCB contaminants
•  Mercury or other heavy metals.

Note from Warren Matthews, Chairman of Xtend-Life
“Our customers depend on us to provide the best, so do our staff and indeed my family and myself! We could source our oils from third world countries (as most manufacturers do) costing 1/10th the price of our local source. We won’t do that however because some of this oil has high levels of contaminants as well as preservatives which are used during transport. We won’t compromise on the purity of our product.”

Omega 3/DHA Esters have been proven to be beneficial in a number of health areas, including your:

• Heart
• Brain
• Joints
• Skin
• Immune system
• Vision, and
• Digestion

Even specific conditions such as:

• Allergies
• Diabetes
• Arthritis, and
• Inflammatory bowel disease.
• Memory
• ADHD

Have been shown to benefit by the intake of Omega 3 fish oils!

Along with our Total Balance formula Xtend-Life Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil should form part of your daily health strategy, irrespective of your age or health status!

To learn more about how this product can give you these benefits please go to The Facts.

No added artificial flavors to mask any rancidity. This product does not that that problem as it is always fresh. The hoki is blast frozen on the fishing boat immediately after being caught.

It is kept frozen until it is brought ashore for processing. It is not thawed until we are ready to have the oil extracted…and we don’t do that until around 30 days before we are ready to encapsulate and bottle.

We process every month and because we supply direct to you by air, our Omega 3 is the freshest in the world.

Cardiovascular
View Related Clinical Studies

General heart benefits: Heart disease is a widespread health problem in modern society. Fish oil, rich in omega-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA) has been proven in many clinical studies to benefit heart health. This is supported by the American Heart Association guidelines, which recommends the benefits of consuming fish and fish oil. They recommend two servings a week for a healthy person, plus a daily serving of fish oil supplement containing at least 900mg of fish oil for a person with heart disease.

http://www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=4632

Triglycerides: The effectiveness of fish oil in lowering blood triglycerides (fats) known to be a risk factor for cardiovascular disease has been well established in multiple clinical studies. Additionally, research has proven that DHA present in fish oil lowers the levels of small, dense particles of LDL cholesterol associated with heart disease. The level of large buoyant particles of HDL cholesterol is increased, which is desirable as it benefits cardiovascular health. Total cholesterol remains unchanged by DHA supplementation.

Hypertension (high blood pressure): Fish oil has been shown to lower mild hypertension when it is due to cardiovascular disease, specifically high cholesterol and atherosclerosis (hardening of the artery walls).

Anti-clotting: Fish oil helps to avoid thrombosis (blood clots) as it prevents platelets (the smallest cells in the blood) to stick together and form blood clots. Reduces heart irregularities: Fish oil, especially the DHA content of it, has been shown to lower heart rates and also prevent arrhythmias (disturbances of the normal rhythm in the heart's beating), thus decreasing the chance of sudden death by a heart attack.

Circulatory problems: Circulatory problems such as varicose veins and Raynaud's disease benefit from fish oil. Fish oil stimulates blood circulation and increases the breakdown of fibrin, a compound involved in clot and scar formation.

Brain function
View Related Clinical Studies

Depression: People with mood disorders such as depression benefit from fish oil supplementation. Researchers have linked lack of omega-3 fatty acids, and in particular DHA, to depression. Fatty acids are essential in the healthy formation of the brain's nerve cell membranes and membrane fluidity. The brain is the richest source of fatty acids in the body, and because nerve cell function depends on proper membrane functioning and membrane fluidity, changes in membrane fluidity have a negative effect on behavior, mood and mental function.

Aggression: A new study of teenagers has found that fish oil and DHA consumption relates to lower hostility rates in teenagers. Hostility has been shown to predict the development and manifestation of heart disease.

Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), dyslexia and dyspraxia: Like depression and other mood disorders, people who suffer from ADHD, dyslexia and dyspraxia (absence of ability to perform coordinated skilled movements or clumsiness) benefit from fish oil supplementation. ADHD has been linked by research to lack of omega-3 fatty acids, necessary for formation and repair of brain cell membranes, especially in the developing central nervous system in children. Fish oil may improve the efficiency of nerve impulses and neurotransmitters involved in brain function.

Memory, learning and Alzheimer's disease: Studies have proven that omega-3 fatty acids improve brain function and that intake of fish oil and DHA is linked to a lowered risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. Studies suggest that fish oil and DHA may protect the nervous system from degeneration. DHA and fish oil have been proven to stimulate memory and learning abilities. Recent research learns that mothers who take DHA as a supplement during pregnancy and lactation may increase the IQ of their babies.

Studies learn that omega-3 fatty acid intake by mothers during pregnancy may protect babies against the development of allergies. Fish oil has been found to protect against symptoms of hay fever, sinus infections, asthma, food allergies and allergic skin conditions such as hives and eczema.
Fish oil lowers the level of airway narrowing (which causes restriction of breathing during an asthma attack) and calms inflammation. Studies have shown improved control in asthmatics that eat fish rich in Omega-3 essential fatty acids on a weekly basis.

Skin disorders and skin health
View Related Clinical Studies

Skin disorders such as psoriasis have been shown to improve from fish oils. In the skin of persons with psoriasis the amount of compounds causing inflammation is many times greater than normal. Fish oil inhibits the production of these inflammatory compounds. Fish oil improves the health of skin, nails and hair.

Diabetes

View Related Clinical Studies

Diabetics suffering from non-insulin dependent diabetes or type II diabetes benefit from fish oil supplementation. Research show that persons who consume 5-10% of their dietary energy consumption in the form of fish or fish oil have less insulin resistance, which causes diminished glucose uptake and glucose metabolism in non-insulin dependent diabetics. Fish oil enhances insulin secretion from beta cells in the pancreas, regulating blood sugar levels. DHA plays a protective role in diabetic neuropathy in all forms of diabetes.

Women's benefits
View Related Clinical Studies

The consumption of fish oil lowers the risk for cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis in post-menopausal women. Pre-menstrual symptoms such as menstrual pain are often alleviated from the use of fish oil supplementation. Omega-3 fatty acids are converted into pain relieving substances (prostaglandins type-3) that control contractions of the uterus, which cause the cramping.

Visual function
View Related Clinical Studies

Research has shown that consumption of fish oil is linked to lowered risk of Age-Related Macular Degeneration, an eye condition which is the leading cause of severe visual loss in people over age 50. The macula is the central area in the retina of the eye used for fine focus such as reading. Omega-3 fatty acids form an important part of the building blocks of the retina. Fish oil intake may improve focus, color, perception and clarity of vision.

What are XtendLife Omega 3/DHA Esters?
Omega 3/DHA Esters are a highly concentrated and purified form of natural fish oil. We use only one fish to manufacture this oil. It is called New Zealand Hoki and it is harvested from New Zealand's cold Southern Ocean. Unlike other fish oils this product has a high concentration of DHA, which scientist believe to be the most beneficial component of fish oil. Even though the ‘crude’ Hoki fish oil itself is considered to be the purest in the world, we still refine and purify it further by using a process called molecular distillation. This removes any residue impurities and thus enables it to be considered 'pharmaceutical grade'.

What are the advantages of XtendLife’s product over other fish oil products?
Freshness and purity! Our oil is processed close to the port of landing, and unlike other products that have been transported around the world in tankers, and in less than ideal conditions, it is not necessary to put in additives to mask any rancidity. Also, there is the comfort in knowing the type of fish used. Most other products use a mixture of fish sourced from third world countries. Additionally, because we supply direct to our customers and do frequent production runs, the finished product is shipped to customers in a fairly short period after production. This is quite unique in the supplement industry.

What is an 'ester' and why is your formula in an 'ester' form?
An ester is formed when an alcohol combines in reaction with an acid to form an organic compound.

Why is an ester form needed?...bioavailability!
Most fish oils are in a triglyceride form. The body has to convert this triglyceride compound into an ester before it can be used. Therefore, by providing the compound in an ester form already we are providing the body with less work to do, enabling it to concentrate on actually using the benefits!

Are Omega 3/DHA Esters safe to use?
Absolutely! Omega 3/DHA Esters are made from pure New Zealand Hoki fish and are 100% natural. They contain no pharmaceutical ingredients. What is the recommended dosage We recommend between 2–4 soft gels per day. In other words 1–2 bottles per month.

Some Companies suggest much higher dose rates. Why don’t you?
This would be because with most products you need to take higher doses to achieve similar levels of DHA. Many products have less than half the amounts of DHA we are able to achieve and thus require double the dosage to equate to the same amount.

Are there any discounts for bulk purchases?
Yes, please refer to our Volume Discount page by clicking here.

Can you tell me more about the ingredients in Omega 3/DHA Esters?
If you refer to the Ingredients tab above you will see the amount of Omega 3 per soft gel. The DHA and EPA are part of the Omega 3 component, providing a purified fish oil containing a wide spectrum of other fatty acids. We add a small amount of a broad spectrum natural Vitamin E too, to act as a natural preservative when the oil is put into the soft gel.

What is the soft gel made of?
It is made out of a highly purified pharmaceutical grade bovine gelatin extract. Unlike a hard capsule it is not practical to manufacture soft gels using a vegetable source. Most pharmaceutical soft gels are manufactured using the same raw material.

Are there any side effects associated with taking Omega 3/DHA Esters?
There have been no reported side effects of XtendLife Omega 3/DHA Esters.

Can Omega 3/DHA Esters be taken while pregnant or nursing?
Most physicians recommend this product for pregnant or nursing mothers as it may help in a positive development of the child’s brain. However, we always recommend that customers who are pregnant or nursing consult with their physician before using any of our products.

Will Omega 3/DHA Esters interfere with other prescription medications?
It is highly unlikely. It is rare that there is any interaction with a prescription medicine. However, high doses may enhance blood thinning. If in doubt please consult your physician or email us and we will check our data bases for any potential conflicts..

I have a problem with stiff joints, although I have not been diagnosed with Arthritis. Will I notice a difference?
Yes, it is very possible you will notice quite a difference. General stiffness in joints and aching/creaking bones often benefit from a regular intake of this product.

I am taking other nutritional supplements and natural medications. Is this ok?
Yes, there is generally no problem with taking additional supplements or remedies from other suppliers. However, if you are taking a lot of supplements be careful that you don’t overdose on some ingredients or have interactions between them. It may be that you might be able to put together a better combination with some professional help. If you would like some help in this area please email us for assistance.

Is this product compatible with all other XtendLife products?
Yes, it can be combined with any of them.

Can I get ongoing advice and help from XtendLife?
Yes. XtendLife experts are here to answer any questions you have regarding their products and their uses for your condition. Please contact us anytime for further help.

"I just wanted to say THANK YOU!! I have had menstrual cramps for many years and have tried all kinds of herbal supplements. I heard about Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil and thought I'd give it a try. It is a miracle!! I have finally found a natural solution to my monthly cramps! Thank you again."

"In September of 2005 I had my annual physical exam which included some blood work. When the results came back my doctor told me my cholesterol was high and wanted to put me on a cholesterol lowering drug. I was horrified at the thought because of things I had read about those kinds of drugs. I told my doctor I didn't want to take any drugs and would try and improve the levels on my own. He agreed and asked that I have the blood work done again after 6 months. I had been taking your Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil Esters for about a month prior to my exam in September. I didn't change anything in my diet and just continued taking 4 capsules a day of the Omega 3. In may of this year I had the blood work done again and these are the results:

September 2005:

May 2006:

• Total Cholesterol 185
• HDL Cholesterol 55
• LDL Cholesterol 119
• Triglycerides 57

Needless to say I was quite pleased with the results and my doctor just said to continue whatever I was doing because it was working. I am now taking GLM-Omega 3 Plus and am looking forward to continued good health. Thank you for such a truly beneficial product."
Phil, Kansas

"We have a child who has ASD. Within 3 weeks of her taking 2 Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil Esters per day she settled down and is able to 'think clearly' (her words). Her school work has improved and her social behaviour has too. I am very thankful that I found Xtend-Life (I found you by browsing the Internet and liked what I read). It has made such a difference to our household. Other mothers who have children in special education at our school are now using Omega 3/DHA with good results too."
Jan, Australia

"I started my son on Total Balance Unisex and Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil Esters a couple of months ago. He's 11 and has had a very hard time with his focus and attention span through all of his school years so far. One doctor and some teachers thought he had ADHD and prescribed medication. I gave it to him briefly, but he complained of feeling weird on the medication and he lost his appetite. I also noticed he seemed to lose his normal spirit and in some ways seemed almost depressed. I took him off all medications. I really noticed an improvement with the Total Balance and Omega 3/DHA combination. This marking period he made the honor roll which he has never once done through all his school years! He's in 5th grade now and I want to keep his confidence up for the years ahead when he'll be going to high school. I'm assuming it’s the supplements that are helping him. It’s been a very positive experience for him and me. Your supplements have helped me too! Thanks"

"I've been on Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil Esters and Total Balance for the past week and I have already noticed an improvement in my energy level."
Alex, USA

"....I have been using your Omega 3/DH Fish Oil Esters for a few months now and my doctor was astounded by the improvement in my cholesterol level. His comment was "I don't know what you've changed, but don't stop!" He is going to look into your products for his own use now. Thanks for a great product."
Jim, Canada

"I have been taking the Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil Esters for about 2 months now. I started using Total Balance about 1 month ago. I have notice 2 things I would like to ask you about.... I notice that my fingernails have strengthened and become thicker and are growing faster. I like this result. Is this from the fish oil? I find that I require less sleep. I go to bed late and still wake up early, but I don't feel tired. Is this a benefit of the Total Balance and/or Omega 3/DHA Esters? One more thing: I noticed a big change in my mental well-being very soon after I began taking the fish oil. Is this an effect of the fish oil, or am I just having good days?"
Ernie, USA

"I thought you might be interested to hear about my last visit to my doctor. After being on your Total Balance and the Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil for some months now, I thought I would go to the doctor and have a blood test. When I returned today for the results he told me "I'm impressed with these results, whatever you are doing keep doing it". I hadn't said anything about what I had been doing, so needless to say I was impressed by his comments, and your products."
Jimmy H, Australia

"I am now 57....I began using Xtend-Life Total Balance Men's Plus, Omega 3/DHA Esters and Coral Calcium in December 2003....In my early twenties my IQ test scores were around 140. Four years ago they went down to around 134 on tickle.com. We are told to expect a decline in IQ with age.... Last month tickle.com had a new IQ test. My score on that was 141....! My close-up vision has also unexpectedly improved....I sleep better and awake with fewer aches and pains.... My nails always used to be terribly brittle, and the skin on my hands and feet would crack and bleed every winter. Your Omega 3/DHA Esters put a quick stop to all that.... ....It is a vast understatement to say that I am pleased with Xtend-Life supplements. You can be assured that I will continue to take them the rest of my life and to promote them to anyone who is interested."
Steve, Canada

"I am a first-time client. I recently ordered the Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil Esters. A strange "habit" of mine is to present my vitamins to my kitty, knowing that animals sense what is good and natural far better than we humans do. Grace (my kitty) tried to dig the Omega 3/DHA Esters out of the jar. She was very, very interested in eating them. This indicated to me that they must be good stuff."
Linda, USA

"….I've not even finished my first bottle of Total Balance or my first bottle of Omega 3/DHA Esters, but for the first time in my life my contact lens prescription needed to be adjusted to a lesser strength. I'm quite pleased and wanted to say thanks to your staff for great products."
Matt, USA

"Just wanted to let you know how thrilled we are with your Omega 3/DHA Esters supplement. My husband, a slender 47-year-old man, has been taking Total Balance for about a year. We added the Cholest-Natural formula when he had routine blood work done and found his cholesterol in a near normal range, but with very high triglycerides. On the next blood work his triglycerides had dropped about 12 points but were still too high. Of course our family doctor wanted to put him on an RX but was understanding and cooperative when we told him we'd rather try an alternative method. He recommended fish oil. It was about that time that you introduced Xtend-Life's Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil Esters. After three months, with no other dietary changes (we try to eat right, make our own bread . . .), his triglycerides dropped over 75 points! We are thrilled! His total cholesterol is at 188 and triglycerides at 208. THANKS SO MUCH!"
Lica H, USA

"I have been so impressed with your products! Still on my first bottle of the Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil Esters, but it has made an impressive statement.... I have had a problem with easily acquired bruises on my hands, and have noticed hardly any in the last couple of weeks, and I am only taking one per day. I intend to continue with this for the next bottle, and then will probably add a bottle of the Natural Energy bee pollen and see what benefits it gives me. Thanks for making such wonderful products!"
Laura O, USA

"Could you please add a bottle of Omega 3/ DHA Fish Oil Esters to my order. I would like for it to become part of my monthly order. I am so pleased with your products. I have been taking supplements (ones I thought were quality) for more than ten years. The difference after only a couple of months of taking yours is very noticeable to me and people around me. I will be sending lots of people to your web site. Thanks again!!"
Linda M, USA

"Thank you for getting back to me and thank you for your supporting information. All the experts that I contacted agree with you, and I'm so glad. I've really missed the positive benefits of Omega 3. I really appreciate the information you've provided."
Frank, USA

"I have been using Xtend-Life's Omega 3/DHA Esters, Cholest-Natural formula and Total Balance for quite a while now after a bad experience with a prescription drug two years ago (by the way, your Total Balance has made a HUGE difference to the “brain fog" I had suffered for several months). Many thanks for both the great products and the open lines of communication. I spent a lot of time researching dietary supplements and chose Xtend-Life for a variety of reasons. It came as a complete shock to discover on placing my first order that you were based in New Zealand. It's fantastic to see a local company doing such great things and being at the forefront of R & D in this area - keep up the good work!"
Brett, NZ

"Warren, Just want to let you know how much my wife and I appreciate your candor and effort in promoting healthy thinking and pure and effective supplements to keep the body healthy. Your Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil Esters is doing wonders for both of us along with Total Balance. You're a breath of fresh air in a world overflowing with health quacks. Based on my bad experiences with virtually all other health supplement providers, you alone stand head and shoulders above the rest."
James, USA

"I have been taking your Total Balance, Omega 3/DHA and Natural Energy Bee Pollen formulas. I feel great, thank you. Thank you for the great products."
Lori, USA

"....After much research on the Hoki fish and your special process I called Shiree yesterday and placed an order for 3 bottles of your Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil Esters and 3 bottles of the Cholest-Natural formula. I have even signed up for your newsletters and have printed out many past issues to read at my leisure...."
Barbara, USA

"Thanks so much for such an excellent explanation….That is a great reason to use Hoki fish…I feel very good about using your wonderful products. Thank you very much..."
JoAnn, USA

"I would like to report a very positive result in a "lipid profile" test result I received today. A little over 3 months ago I went for a physical. One of the tests was the cholesterol test. Everything was OK except my LDL was very high at 231. My HDL was OK at 48 and triglycerides were not very good at 166. Today my report was LDL-149, HDL-55, and triglycerides-89. The doctor admitted I did better than when on statins. So what did I do? I took Total Balance (4/day), Omega 3/DHA Fish Oil Esters (2/day), ate more fish and fresh fruits and vegetables, less carbohydrates and walked about 2 miles a day. I can't give all the credit to Total Balance, but I have to believe it helped as well as the Omega 3/DHA Esters. Needless to say I'm going to continue doing the same thing and I give credit to Warren who convinced me to do the right thing."
