Coromega uses an exclusive production process that transforms the highest quality pharmaceutical grade fish oil into a creamy, delicious orange tasting pudding-like emulsion. Coromega has made the experience of taking a fish oil supplement a pure pleasure. The Coromega process and formulation, developed in Norway, was developed over a 10-year period and is patented worldwide. This complex process assures the stability of the fish oil and the potency of these high quality omega-3 fatty acids.

Coromega is a natural source of Omega-3 fatty acids from pharmaceutical grade fish oil. All contaminants have been removed through a series of sophisticated cleaning processes, including molecular distillation, to provide a pure and concentrated source of omega-3 fatty acids. Coromega is a patented emulsified form of omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, protected and stabilized with vitamins C and E (natural d-alpha tocopherol). The omega-3 fatty acids in Coromega have been shown in clinical trials to reduce heart disease, reduce triglyceride levels and reduce inflammation. For more information, please see our Benefits of Omega-3 Fatty Acidswebpage. Coromega only uses the highest quality pharmaceutical grade fish oil (omega-3 fatty acids) on the market.

Each packet of Coromega provides you with:

• Pharmaceutical grade fish oil that has been molecularly distilled
• 650 milligrams of omega-3 fatty acids as natural triglycerides, including 350 milligrams of EPA and 230 milligrams of DHA from premium cold water marine oils
• 3IU of natural d-alpha tocopherol (Vitamin E)
• 12 milligrams vitamin C

How to use Coromega:

Coromega Benefits:

The omega-3 fatty acids in Coromega benefits normal triglyceride levels, circulatory function and vascular tone. DHA is the primary fatty acid in brain, retina and nerve tissue. The omega-3s in Coromega also support a healthy cardiovascular system and normal cholesterol levels.

Scientific evidence has shown omega-3 fatty acids help promote*:

• Cardiovascular health
• Mental and Nervous System Health
• Reduces blood platelet “stickiness”
• Healthy cholesterol levels
• Healthy triglyceride levels
• Helps maintain normal heart rhythm
• Pregnancy, fetal, and newborn health
• Promotes easy joint movement
• Promotes overall joint health
• Promotes relief from Rheumatoid arthritis and many forms of chronic inflammation, like Lupus
• Promotes mother’s health and optimal development of her child’s brain, nerves and eyes during pregnancy & breast feeding
• Promotes fat metabolism for weight control
• Helps to maintain healthy insulin levels
• Skin health

How Coromega Dietary Supplements Function:

The omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, found in Coromega are very important for normal brain development, nervous system function, and eyesight. These fatty acids are thought to be protective of the body, reducing the risk of developing arthritis, high blood pressure, some cancers, and heart disease. Most omega-3 fatty acid studies have focused on the association these fats have with heart health. According to the American Dietetic Association, omega-3 fatty acids “are believed to contribute to an overall vascular environment less prone to occlusion by atherosclerotic plaques”.

There has been a strong relationship between omega-3 fatty acids and cardiovascular health in many observational studies. Researchers have conducted numerous well-designed interventional clinical trials that have shown decreased mortality from cardiovascular disease, particularly myocardial infarction in the past twenty years.

In the GISSI-3 {Gruppo Italiano per lo Studio della Sopravvivenza nell’infarto Miocardio (GISSI)-Prevenzione}, 11,324 people were given 1 gram of omega-3 fatty acids or control for 24 months. This study demonstrated that individuals given omega-3 fatty acid supplements had a 45% decrease in risk of sudden cardiac death and a 20% decrease in all-cause mortality.

The benefits of omega-3 fatty acids for cardiovascular health are so well established that the American Heart Association has published statements since 1996 advocating increased fish intake and/or omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil supplements.

Omega-3 fatty acids are anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic and may positively modulate the immune system. Clinical trials, while not decisive at this time, substantiate the use of omega-3 fatty acids in neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Research is continuing on the relationship between omega-3 fatty acids and disease states including asthma and other diseases of the immune system.

Bioavailability Studies of Emulsified Flavored Fish Oil (Coromega)

As scientific research continues to reveal the nutritional and therapeutic benefits of supplemental omega-3 fatty acids, demand for fish oil supplements and related omega-3 products will grow. Enhanced demand will create a need to provide fish oil in more desirable and more effective delivery systems that are more amenable to consumer needs, taste, and convenience.

Emulsified flavored fish oil products, like Coromega, have emerged as a way of providing omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil in a form that not only tastes good but also in a form that is already emulsified. Recent work from our laboratory has examined the bioavailability of an emulsified flavored fish oil product (Coromega) vs. traditional encapsulated fish oil in a short-term feeding trial in men. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive either of the products following an overnight fast. Plasma samples were taken from venous blood draws at baseline, 2, 4, 8, 24, and 48 h following the ingestion of the equivalent of 4g of fish oil from either product. One week after the beginning of the study, the study protocol was repeated with the opposite oil. Subjects fasted during the first 8h of study and were advised to eat low-fat meals for the rest of the study. Fatty acid profiles were then determined for plasma total phospholipids for each time point with baseline values serving as control. Percentage differences in specific fatty acids in individuals were then compared to baseline and the alternative treatment to assess bioavailability.

This study suggested that emulsified fish oil, like Coromega, is more bioavailable. Levels of eicosapentaenoic acids (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acids (DHA) not only increased faster in subjects taking emulsified fish oil but also increased to a greater extent throughout the 2-d study period.

Coromega will revolutionize the way people take fish oil and may be an efficient tool to guarantee greater study compliance in study subjects adverse to fish oil capsules.

*The Food and Drug Administration approved the following statement regarding omega-3 fatty acids: The scientific evidence about whether omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) is suggestive, but not conclusive. Studies in the general population have looked at diets containing fish and it is not known whether diets or omega-3 fatty acids in fish may have a possible effect on a reduced risk of CHD. It is not known what effect omega-3 fatty acids may or may not have on risk of CHD in the general population. Other claims regarding omega-3 fatty acids (fatty acids from fish oil) have not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. This omega-3 fatty acid/antioxidant dietary supplement is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
