Why Choose Vitadefence Omega 3-6-9 Multi with Fish, Flaxseed & Sunflower Oil?

Essential fatty acids are just that—essential. Your body cannot produce them, so you must obtain them from your diet or supplementation. EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart (with a daily intake of 250 mg EPA and DHA). Our Omega 3-6-9 Multi combines fish oil, organic flaxseed oil and sunflower seed oil with vitamin E.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids: The Star Players

Omega-3s, particularly EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), are among the most researched nutrients in nutritional science.

EPA and DHA contribute to normal heart function* *Beneficial effects are obtained with a daily intake of at least 250mg DHA and EPA

DHA contributes to:

• Normal brain function - Essential for cognitive health*
• Maintenance of normal vision - Supports eye health* *Beneficial effects obtained with a daily intake of 250mg DHA

Our formula provides:

• EPA: 60mg per capsule
• DHA: 35mg per capsule
• Total Omega-3: 250mg per capsule

At the standard dose of 3 capsules daily, you receive 285mg of combined EPA and DHA, exceeding the threshold for beneficial effects on heart function.

Omega-6 Fatty Acids: The Supporting Role

Omega-6 fatty acids, particularly linoleic acid (LA), are also essential. Our formula provides 225mg of Omega-6 per capsule, primarily from sunflower seed oil.

Linoleic Acid (165mg per capsule) is the predominant omega-6 in our formula.

Omega-9 Fatty Acids: The Conditionally Essential

Our formula provides 150mg of Omega-9 per capsule.

Oleic Acid (100mg per capsule) is the main omega-9, found abundantly in the sunflower seed oil component.

Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA): The Plant-Based Omega-3

Each capsule provides 135 mg ALA from organic flaxseed oil.

Our formula provides 135mg of ALA per capsule from organic flaxseed oil.

What Each 1000mg Capsule Provides:

• Fish Oil: 400mg
• Organic Flaxseed Oil: 300mg
• Sunflower Seed Oil: 290mg

Essential Fatty Acid Content:

NRV = Nutrient Reference Value

Fish Oil: The Omega-3 Powerhouse

Our fish oil provides EPA and DHA—the long-chain omega-3s that your body uses directly. Fish oil provides EPA and DHA.

Organic Flaxseed Oil: The Plant-Based Omega-3

Flaxseed oil (from Linum usitatissimum) is one of the richest plant sources of ALA. This omega-3 is particularly valuable for:

• Those seeking plant-based omega-3 sources alongside fish oil
• Providing the building blocks for EPA and DHA (though conversion is limited)

Our organic, cold-pressed flaxseed oil ensures premium quality.

Sunflower Seed Oil: The Omega-6 and Omega-9 Source

Sunflower seed oil (from Helianthus annuus) provides:

• Linoleic acid (omega-6)
• Oleic acid (omega-9)
• Natural vitamin E

This balanced oil complements the omega-3s from fish and flax.

Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress

At 6.7mg (56% NRV) per capsule, vitamin E serves dual purposes:

1. Acts as an antioxidant to protect the delicate fatty acids from oxidation

The vitamin E is d-alpha-tocopherol.

Essential fatty acids are delicate and can oxidize when exposed to heat, light, or air. Proper storage is critical:

• Store in a cool, dry place - Room temperature or cooler
• Consider refrigeration - Especially after opening
• Keep tightly closed - Minimize air exposure
• Avoid heat and direct sunlight - Protect from light and warmth
• Keep out of reach of children
• Check best before date - Found on the base
• Use within recommended timeframe - Consume within several months of opening for best quality

DHA is the most abundant omega-3 fatty acid in the brain and retina. It comprises:

Why combine omega-3, 6, and 9?The ratio matters.

Should I take this if I eat fish regularly? If you consume fatty fish 3+ times weekly, you may already get adequate EPA and DHA.

Can I take this with blood thinners? Omega-3s can affect blood clotting. Consult your doctor before combining with anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications.

Why is there a warning for people with epilepsy? Some research has suggested potential interactions between omega-3 supplementation and epilepsy medications, though findings are mixed. Out of caution, consultation with a doctor is recommended.

Is the fish oil tested for contaminants? High-quality fish oil should be tested for heavy metals, PCBs, and other contaminants. Made in the UK to GMP quality standards.

Why gelatin capsules instead of vegan alternatives? Gelatin provides a stable, traditional capsule material that's particularly suited for oil-based supplements. However, this does mean the product isn't suitable for vegetarians or vegans.

Can children take this? This product is formulated for adults. Consult a pediatrician before giving omega supplements to children, who often need different dosages.

What's the difference between ALA and EPA/DHA?ALA is converted to EPA and DHA in the body only in small amounts. EPA and DHA from fish oil are ready to use directly.

How long until I notice benefits? This varies by individual and what benefits you're seeking. Some people notice changes within weeks, while building optimal tissue levels of omega-3s takes several months of consistent supplementation.

Should I take this if I'm vegetarian? This product contains fish oil and gelatin, making it unsuitable for vegetarians. Consider algae-based omega-3 supplements or our other plant-based formulas instead.

Our Omega 3-6-9 Multi can be combined with most other Vitadefence supplements, with some considerations:

• Marine Collagen Multi - Compatible; no overlapping ingredients
• Magnesium Multi - Compatible; vitamin E is the only overlap (safe levels)
• Montmorency Multi - Compatible
• Nattokinase Multi - ask your doctor before combining, especially if you take blood-thinning medication. Consult doctor, especially if on blood thinners
• Liposomal D3 + K2 - compatible

Always check total vitamin E intake when combining supplements.

Omega-3 supplementation works best alongside:

1. Balanced diet - Rich in vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts, and seeds
2. Regular physical activity - At least 150 minutes weekly
3. Healthy fats - Olive oil, avocados, nuts alongside supplementation
4. Limited processed foods - Reduce excess omega-6 from processed oils
5. Stress management - Chronic stress affects cardiovascular health
6. Quality sleep - 7-9 hours nightly
7. Avoid smoking - Critical for cardiovascular wellness
8. Regular health monitoring - Blood pressure, cholesterol, etc.

Several factors distinguish our Omega 3-6-9 Multi:

1. Triple-oil blend - Fish, flax, and sunflower for comprehensive EFA support
2. Organic flaxseed oil - Premium quality plant-based omega-3
3. Meaningful EPA+DHA doses - Reaches beneficial threshold at 3 capsules daily
4. Balanced ratio - Favorable omega-6 to omega-3 ratio
5. Vitamin E included - contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress
6. Flexible dosing - 1-3 capsules daily based on needs
7. UK quality standards - made to GMP quality standards

The combination of marine and plant-based oils creates a balanced profile of omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 fatty acids, while vitamin E protects these delicate nutrients. At 3 capsules daily you take 285 mg EPA and DHA; EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart with a daily intake of 250 mg.

Remember: supplements work best as part of a healthy lifestyle. No capsule can replace a balanced diet, regular exercise, stress management, and other wellness fundamentals.
