Frequently Asked Questions
\nWhat is the difference between omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9?
\nOmega-3, 6, and 9 are all fatty acids, but they come from different sources and have distinct structures. Omega-3 comes mainly from fish and algae, omega-6 is often found in vegetable oils such as sunflower oil, and omega-9 is found in olive oil and avocados. <\/p>\n
What does this product contain that isn’t found in standard fish oil?
\nIn addition to omega-3 (EPA and DHA), this product also contains GLA, an omega-6 fatty acid from borage seed oil, and omega-9 fatty acids from natural sources. This makes it a complete blend. <\/p>\n
What is GLA?
\nGLA stands for gamma-linolenic acid. It is an omega-6 fatty acid that occurs in small amounts in certain vegetable oils, such as borage oil. <\/p>\n
What is borage seed oil?
\nBorage seed oil is extracted from the seeds of the borage plant (Borago officinalis), also known as borage herb. It is a plant-based source of GLA. <\/p>\n
What is oleic acid (OA) in this product?
\nOleic acid is an omega-9 fatty acid found, among other sources, in olive oil. It is one of the fatty acids included in this blend to make the formula complete. <\/p>\n
Are the capsules easy for children to take?
\nYes, the soft capsules are small and have a mild lemon flavor. They are recommended for children ages 6 to 12. Younger children may take them under supervision. <\/p>\n
