| Elixi® Omega-3 PlussaPlussa is a food supplement made of Finnish
cold-pressed linseed oil and supplemented with fatty acids (EPA and
DHA) refined from fish oil. Linseed oil is the best source of the
essential Omega-3 in the vegetable world. Omega-3 PlussaPlussa balances the ratio between Omega-6 (linoleic acid) and Omega-3 (alpha linolenic acid) within the diet. Within Plussa Plussa food supplement, the ratio between the above fatty acids is 1:4. This improves the utilization of alpha linolenic acid (ALA) in the body. ALA has independent tasks that are connected with e.g. the following functions: Image • The health of the skin, nails and hair • Controlling of inflammatory reactions • Clotting of blood • Development of a foetus • Elasticity and resilience of plasma membranes Within a person’s body, ALA is also converted into important Omega-3-fatty acids called EPA (eicosapentaene acid) and DHA (docosahexaene acid) when necessary. According to researches, the Omega-3-fatty acids (EPA and DHA) taken in from a person’s diet together with other nutritional factors may alleviate predisposition to depression. The impacts of EPA have been studied e.g. in connection with the treatment of learning difficulties. There is plenty of DHA in the grey matter within the brain and in the retina. |
