"MOOD is by far the best fish oil I've come across, bar none, the clarity it brings is astonishing." - NW |

DESCRIPTION: MOOD places a strong emphasis on DHA while also focusing on EPA. DHA is the main Omega-3 fat of the brain, essential for a properly functioning nervous system and for eye health. MOOD utilizes our exclusive Supercritical CO-2 extraction process to protect the Omega 3s while achieving unparalleled purity and unmatched levels of DHA and EPA compared to leading brands. Most Omega 3 on the market provides little health benefit since the levels of DHA and EPA are minimal and high ‘filler’ oils are included in the total EFA count. DHA and EPA provide health benefits and MOOD contains high levels of each, with a focus on DHA. Omega 3 comes in both natural and processed forms. Fish are inherently triglyceride and natural. When fish oil is processed they become ethyl esters which are not found in nature and not absorbed well in the human body. Studies have shown that the body does not absorb processed oil well. Omega 3 from ethyl esters cannot match triglyceride and if it doesn’t state on the bottle the processing, then its ethyl ester. MOOD is only a triglyceride formula and we are proud of its outstanding potency and purity since we stay as close to nature as possible. DHA is crucial for the healthy structure and function of the brain. DHA is essential for every stage of life due to the way it impacts the brain’s structure and signaling systems. DHA promotes healthy nervous system development and optimal memory function. In addition, DHA turns on the growth of new brain cells, offers protection for existing brain cells and enhances the ability of one brain cell to connect to the next - a process called neuroplasticity. DHA is anti-inflammatory and known to reduce the action of COX-2, a pro-inflammation enzyme. DHA is the major structural fat in the retina of the eye and plays an important role in visual development and visual function throughout life. DHA is also a key component of heart health and is found in abundant levels in heart tissue. DHA has a positive effect on diseases such as hypertension, arthritis, atherosclerosis, depression, adult-onset diabetes, mellitus, myocardial infarction, thrombosis and some cancers. Low levels of DHA are found in Alzheimer’s patients. The health benefits of Omega 3s can only be utilized if your body actually absorbs these essential fatty acids. A true Triglyceride form of Omega 3 means higher absorption without the risk of molecular instability. For heart, brain, eye, immune and joint health, use only the Triglyceride form of Omega 3 fatty acids. |
OMEGA – 3 BENEFITS From the moment we are born, Docosahexaenoic Acid, DHA, is a key component to developing brains and eyes, but it continues to support brain and eye function throughout life. DHA is a structural component of membranes specifically in the central nervous system. There is a correlation between the intake of Omega 3s, particularly DHA and cognitive function, visual acuity and overall brain development. Consuming eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) omega-3 fatty acids in food or dietary supplements may reduce the risk of hypertension and coronary heart disease.

MOOD is a premier blend of Omega-3 fatty acids, heavily concentrated in DHA with ample EPA levels. DHA is the primary fatty acid in the nervous system, brain and eyes and severely lacking in the standard diet. Most Omega-3 on the market provide little benefit to health. At Point of Return potency, purity and sustainability are the backbone of our philopshophy.
Why Omega 3 is Essential
Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids are termed "essential" to human health but must be obtained from dietary sources. Fish is Brain Food. This cannot be overstated. DHA is a large contributor to brain growth and is crucial to optimal development of the brain and eyes. A large portion of the brain's grey matter is DHA, and DHA is also found in high concentrations in human nerve tissue and in the retina of the eye. A deficiency of DHA has been linked to cognitive and visual deficits.
Omega-3s are critical compounds to support a healthy heart. Both EPA and DHA have been shown to reduce resting heart rate while increasing left ventricular filling capacity and promoting blood vessel relaxation. Omega-3s also block the production of enzymes that destroy the joint cartilage, which is important in osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
The two Omega-3 acids that have the greatest importance to health are: Docosahenaenoic Acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA). Total EFA is misleading - it is the only the levels of DHA and EPA that support health.
