Very popular since about ten years, the essential omega-3 fatty acids are really beneficial for our health, particularly for the heart, the articulations and brain. The vitamin D is vital for the health of our bones and teeth, because it plays an essential role within the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus in the organism. As the he result of recent studies, this dietary supplement « Fish Oil + Vitamin D3 » combines the benefits of the omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D. Together they stabilize the cardiac and nerve cell membranes, stimulating numerous immune mechanisms, diminishing inflammations, protecting the health of the bones and the eyes. A vitamin D or omega-3 deficiency is linked to a high risk of appearing cardiovascular diseases (+45 %), cerebrovascular accident (CVA) (+78 %), osteoporosis, depression and seasonal colds.
Protects you from the flu. Improves the natural defences.

The active form of vitamin D is beneficial for the immune system. Its intake is important in case of autoimmune diseases, like multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, intestinal inflammatory diseases. This vitamin seems to ease psoriasis (skin affection) and increases our resistance to tuberculosis. At the present time, it has been discovered that vitamin D affects also our natural defences. It participates in the differentiation of the immune system cells and in the production of antimicrobial peptides. Seasonal epidemics maybe linked to a vitamin D deficiency.
According to several recent scientific researches (2007-2009), people with the lowest vitamin D level tend to have more colds and flu! A daily vitamin D intake is necessary during winter, in the countries where daily light is poor, and especially with elder people and infants during the 2-3 first years of life. As for omega-3, it diminishes inflammations while modulating the production of pro-inflammatory molecules (prostaglandins and leukotrienes).

Diminishes the risks of appearing cancer
Omega-3 and vitamin D weakens the cancerous cells, which are eliminated easier by the organism. Reducing the risk of metastasis, they are linked to a survival prolongation within cancerous people. A clinic study within 600 people during 4 years demonstrates that a nutrition that is rich in omega-3 reduces the global occurrence of cancer by 60%. It has recently been demonstrated that vitamin D diminishes the risk of 17 different types of tumours (for ex. colon, prostate, breast and ovaries cancer). It can “order” these “precancerous” cells to behave again like healthy cells. It accelerates also the programmed death (apoptosis) of malignant cells and inhibits their proliferation.
Preserve the health of your eyes. Fights against macular degeneration. According to researchers, vitamin D and the fatty omega-3 acids reduces by 40 % the risk of appearing macular degeneration. This retina alteration linked to the age, provokes a progressive loss of vision. Vitamin D could help also reduce tissue inflammation of the retina or prevent the formation of new retinal blood vessels.
