This Nutrient Makes You Smarter
In the classic story, "The Wizard of Oz," Dorothy opens the front door of her tornado-transported house and enters a whole new world that's completely different from Kansas. It's a world where scarecrows talk, lions are cowardly and apple trees slap her hand when she tries to pick an apple. Everything is completely different and nearly unrecognizable. I have news for you... The same is true of our food supply! Because it's not actually "food" any more... The processing of food to transform it from Nature-made (like grains, fruits and vegetables) to "something-in-a-box" has resulted in so-called food which bears little or no resemblance to what it used to be, and has few or none of its naturally occurring nutrients. It goes even further back Our farming practices have played their part in changing the world of our food supply, too. Failing to rotate crops, bioengineering, use of pesticides and herbicides and now genetic modifications (GMOs) have resulted in produce that is not only less tasty and less nutritious than it was in our grandparents' day, but can be downright dangerous! For example, there are more than 500 chemical pesticides routinely used in conventional farming, many of which are toxic to our nervous systems, disrupt our endocrine systems and can cause reproductive abnormalities. Plus, the way our wheat is harvested has resulted in nearly double the amount of gluten than the wheat of just 100 years ago...and we're paying the price with cases of gluten sensitivity blowing through the roof. And now we're just waiting to see the health price of GMOs. Time will tell exactly what tomatoes spliced with mouse genes will do to our bodies. What's your beef? There's yet another area where the playing field has transformed dramatically with scary results... Our supply of Omega-3 essential fatty acids. You see, it used to be that animals raised for our food supply would be allowed to graze in fields and pastures, which were natural sources of Omega-3 fatty acids. We, in turn, would get the EFAs when we would eat the meat, milk or eggs from the animals. The fresh fish caught in the oceans were also a rich natural source of Omega-3 EFAs. But we're in a whole new world here too, my friend. Animals are now fed mainly grains which has not only annihilated their Omega-3 EFAs (that they USED TO get from grass) but at the same time has caused the level of Omega-6 EFAs (that they NOW GET from the grains) in their products to skyrocket. Plus, thanks to polluted waters, many fish now contain dangerous levels of contaminants including PCBs and mercury...so people are understandably avoiding them. And the resulting lack of Omega-3 EFAs in our diet has spelled serious trouble for young and old alike. Young people are having "senior moments" now Although Omega-3 EFAs are probably best known as a natural anti-inflammatory which can help ease joint aches and pains, they also serve a function that's even more vital... ...Brain health! 50-60% of your brain's solid matter is fat--in the form of Omega-3 EFAs. Your brain's neurons (the cells that transmit messages) are extremely rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, especially docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). But since the playing field has changed so dramatically with our food, the typical Western diet is loaded with Omega-6 fatty acids and grossly lacking Omega-3's... And your brain is literally being deprived of what it needs to function! This can greatly impair your ability to think, learn and remember -- for the young and old alike.  Have you ever wondered why the US is falling further and further behind in student education even though we have the world's greatest technologies at our disposal? DHA affects reading, memory and behavior Numerous impressive studies show the positive effect of Omega-3 EFA supplementation at ALL ages. In one study, 26 normal adult volunteers were hooked up to electrodes and given a test that measured their p300 rate. (The p300 brain wave is linked with learning and memory.) Right after the test, they were given DHA (an Omega-3 fatty acid) supplements, then two hours later their brain waves were measured again. In each case, their p300 rates had risen significantly! And the research is just as exciting for the kids... New research from the UK suggests that taking a daily supplement of the Omega-3 DHA can help improve reading and behavior in children. In a study conducted by Alex Richardson, a senior research fellow at the Centre for Evidence-Based Intervention at Oxford University, 362 healthy 7 to 9 year-olds were split into two groups -- one group received 600 mg of Omega-3 DHA each day and the other a placebo. After 16 weeks their reading abilities were examined and the group taking daily supplements of Omega-3 DHA showed dramatically improved reading performance for the poorest readers (those in the lowest fifth of the normal range) -- to the extent that they caught up with their peer group! In addition, parents of the children whose initial reading performance was lowest and who showed improvements reported that they saw an overall improvement in their children's behavior. Maximizing brain function in this changed world It's a whole new world, my friend, so that means it's essential to roll with the changes and do what you must to help stay healthy in your body and mind. Young or old, daily supplementation with Omega-3 fatty acids can help maximize your brain's functioning at all ages, help your kids do better in school and even can help protect against dementia in your older years. VitalMega-3 fish oil formula is the perfect answer to this very important concern.  VitalMega-3 is loaded with 1,200 mg of Omega-3s in each and every daily two-capsule serving. The 2-capsule daily serving packs super-potent levels of EPA and DHA in the same pristine form you'd get directly from the fish itself. Even just one capsule a day gives you nearly 80% of the recommended daily EPA/DHA! And our innovative hexane-free, low-temperature CO2 distillation process helps enhance purity and efficacy, as it concentrates the essential fatty acids while maintaining quality of the oil. As a result, the crucial Omega-3 EFAs reach your system (and brain) in the same pristine form as they exist in the fish itself. Now that's quality you can trust.   Our food supply is transforming before our very eyes, but that doesn't mean you have to pay the price for it with your health. Keep your eyes open to the changes around you and help give your body and mind a winning advantage over the shortcomings on the grocery shelves. Believe me, your body will say thank you in many ways.
