OM3 - Instructions for use and precautions

OM3 is used to for emotional balance and well-being.

 

The recommended initial dose of OM3 is 3 capsules per day, in one or more doses, for a daily intake of 1050 mg (1.05 g) of EPA and 150 mg of DHA corresponding to a total of 1.35 g of omega-3 per day. This corresponds to the quantity of EPA used in the most recent clinical studies.

 

The ratio of EPA fatty acid (the most important for emotional balance) compared to DHA is often insufficient (1.5/1 in fish meat, and almost always lower than 4/1); it is 7.5:1 in OM3.

The capsules may be taken either in a single dose or divided into seperate doses during the day, as best suited for each individual.

 

Scientific studies on the incorporation of essential fatty acids by cell membranes suggest that it takes about three months to compensate for a deficiency in omega-3 fatty acids and to completely renew tissues. It is therefore recommended to regularly take OM3 for three months to assess its effects (to improve this evaluation, it is recommended to answer the questionnaire on emotional wellbeing (link to the emotion test) and to repeat the test after three months). Improvements however are often noted during the first weeks of treatment.

 

After a three-month period, dosing with OM3 may be relayed by a diet very rich in omega-3 of marine origin (fatty fish and shellfish in particular) and poor in omega-6. If an improvement in emotional balance is obtained, the dose of OM3 may then be gradually reduced to two capsules per day and the effects should be measured again after three months. If there is no deterioration, the reduced dose is sufficient and a daily dose of a single capsule may be tested. If a deterioration is noticed, the dose should be increased again.
 
Medical experts in nutrition, as well as the FDA, (American Regulatory Agency) declared that overall intake of omega-3 of up to 3 g per day are “generally considered to be without danger” (8 g per day for the expert panel formed by the American Heart Association and published in the major cardiology journal Circulation ).

It should be remembered that the daily dose of three capsules of OM3 corresponds to 1.42 grams of omega-3.
