Combination Fatty Acid Formula: Liquid or Capsules

 

 

Health-promoting Fatty Acids:

• "ALA" from flaxseed oil

• "GLA" from borage seed oil

• "EPA" and "DHA" from fish oil

The combination of these fatty acids together is superior to the use of one fatty acid from a single source; this is why more and more doctors are using "combination fatty acid therapy" for their patients.  Dr Vasquez was one of the first clinicians to author papers on this topic:

Summary: “Fatty acids” is the scientific term for lipids, commonly known as “fat.” Some fats promote disease, while other fatty acids have health-promoting and anti-inflammatory benefits. This product provides an excellent blend and ratio of health-promoting fatty acids. This is perhaps the best combination fatty acid product in the healthcare market. This product was designed by Dr Vasquez in 2005 and is a top-selling fatty acid supplement in the professional doctor’s market. This product has been used safely and effectively by thousands of patients throughout the USA and Europe. This product is manufactured in America by a drug manufacturing facility certified by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) under strict quality control measures.
 

Use: The liquid form of this fatty acid supplement can be consumed directly from the bottle, from a spoon, or it can be incorporated into your morning smoothie (for example with whey protein and berries).  Patients/customers can chose either the capsule form or the liquid form depending on which is more convenient for them at the time. For preventive medicine use in adults, at least one teaspoon should be used daily; up to 1 tablespoon per day is quite reasonable for most patients. When using the capsule form, 3-6 caps per day is reasonable for most adult patients.
 

Benefits: Combination fatty acid supplementation has been shown in clinical trials to improve brain, heart, and musculoskeletal health and function. Each of the main fatty acids in this product—ALA, GLA, EPA, and DHA—shows anti-inflammatory benefits and the improvement of clinical outcomes.

 

Cautions: Dosed at 1 teaspoon up to 1 tablespoon per day, combination fatty acid supplementation improves mortality (helps people live longer) and is generally remarkably safe. People with blood-clotting disorders or those taking “blood-thinning” medications should not exceed 1 teaspoon per day unless supervised by a doctor.
