VegEPA is a patented formulation containing a unique ratio of
ultra-pure EPA from marine fish oil and GLA from organic virgin evening
primrose oil, providing a highly concentrated source of omega-3 and
omega-6 long-chain fatty acids. As such, VegEPA combines the benefits
that both these natural substances bring to the body.
Fatty acids play an important part in the functioning of every living
cell in the body. Specifically they may help the body in several ways
including: improving the circulatory system, aiding concentration,
maintaining a balanced mood and keeping joints in good condition.
The EPA in VegEPA is derived from fish oil - the highest
yielding source of long-chain omega-3 fats. This fatty acid forms a
vital part of the diet as it enables the body to produce many substances
that are necessary for health and well-being. EPA also plays a vital
role in the structure, development and functioning of the brain. It can
benefit sufferers of an array of mental and physical illnesses as well
as lowering the risk of many potential health problems.
The EPO in VegEPA is derived from the cold-pressing of evening
primrose seeds. When EPO is unprocessed and unrefined it is a rich
source of botanical triterpenes - hormone-like substances which play an
important role in immune function. EPO is renowned for oiling the joints
and nourishing the skin, hair and nails. A rich source of the omega-6
GLA, the importance of EPO in relation to the structure of cell
membrances and, consequently, effective cell signalling, cannot be
over-emphasised.
VegEPA’s manufacturing process is of the highest standard.
Using a molecular distillation process the EPA is extracted from fish
oil - and hence ultra-purified - removing all unwanted substances and
impurities including DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). Whilst this omega-3
fatty acid is vital for health, EPA is converted naturally by the body
into DHA so it is unnecessary to take DHA in supplement form.
Furthermore, some studies have demonstrated that DHA in supplement form
inhibits the beneficial effects of EPA. To find out more about this

It is recommended that VegEPA should be taken on a daily basis. To
