Deep Sea Fish Oil - Is it Really the Best Choice For Your Health?

From the facts that I have gathered over the years, yes, it is the best choice. The fish that you get from the deep sea is mostly richer in Omega 3 fatty acids. And if you check the companies website before you buy your oil, you will be able to verify this information.

I always recommend that you check the manufacturers website before buying their oil. This way you can check that the oil is fresh. You check this by verifying that the fish oil is processed close to where the fish are landed. Some oils are bought by the tanker load from overseas, this oil is not always fresh.

While you are at the companies website, check that the oil is higher in DHA than EPA. This is because DHA is used by your brain in huge amounts. DHA literally keeps us sane. You will not suffer from bouts of depression or other emotional disorders, as long as the DHA levels remain normal. It improves our memory and it improves our concentration.

Some companies put out an oil that is higher in EPA than DHA. This is because EPA is cheaper to produce, not because it is better for you. Always go for the oil higher in DHA. And go for deep sea fish oil.

I buy my oil from a company that sources their fish from the cold, deep pristine waters of the Southern Ocean, just off the coast of New Zealand. The fish they process from there is naturally rich in the omega 3 fatty acids DHA and EPA. In that order. I practice what I preach, I use deep sea fish oil.

I almost forgot to mention that the oil you buy should have been processed by molecular distillation to remove the impurities such as lead, mercury and the PCBs and more. Molecular distillation is the only method that removes the deadly PCBs. Please do not forget to check this, while you are at the companies website.
