FishSMART Ultra was developed to address the issue of
Omega 3 deficiency and to take advantage of the health benefits of EPA and
DHA. Each enteric-coated capsule contains 300 mg of EPA and 200 mg of DHA
derived from mackerel, sardine and anchovy, with Lipase and peppermint
oil. FishSMART Ultra is GMO-free and certified free of pesticides, PCB's
and heavy metals. The enteric coating allows the fish oil to survive the
stomach acid, and is directly delivered to the colon.
In 1996 the New England Journal, of Medicine published a
paper showing the benefits of enteric coated fish oil in Crohn's disease,
reducing the rate of relapse. Enteric coating also prevents burping up the
taste of the fish oil. Each capsule contains a proprietary blend of Lipase
and peppermint oil called Ultragest.
Lipase is an enzyme that breaks down fats so oils are
properly absorbed. Many people, especially those with bowel or liver
disease cannot properly digest fats without enzymes such as lipase.
FishSMART Ultra also contains enteric coated peppermint oil, which has an
antispasmodic activity in the digestive tract. In 1997 the Journal of
Gastroenterology reported that enteric coated peppermint oil significantly
reduced abdominal pain, distension, and flatulence in 52 patients with
IBS.
Each 1000mg FishSMART Ultra capsule contains 300 mg of EPA
and 200 mg of DHA, a ratio that reflects the amounts used in the majority
of clinical studies with fish oil. Unlike many similar products on the
market, these oils are packaged in dark-colored capsules to protect the
quality of the oils.
