Seal oil is a superior
source of Omega -3 compared
to fish in many ways. DPA is
present at very low levels
in fish oils relative to EPA
or DHA but is almost as
important as either the EPA
or the DHA. Harp Seal oil
can supply up to 10(ten)
times more DPA than fish
oils, About a third of the
long-chain Omega-3 fatty
acids circulating in human
blood is attributable to DPA.
Because of this, DPA has
become of interest to
medical researchers in both
France and Japan. It seems
that in the blood vessel
walls, EPA may actually be
converted to DPA as the
effective agent.
Japanese researchers at
the Tokyo Medical and Dental
University in Tokyo have
shown that the one
stimulating effect of EPA is
the key in producing
prostaglandin that keeps the
artery wall soft and free of
plaque, this study indicates
that DPA may be 10 ~ 20
times more powerful than EPA
in this effect. Harp Seal
Oil is the ONLY supplement
rich in natural DPA. With
the exception of seal oil,
the highest incidence of DPA
is in human breast milk.
Deficiencies in Omega-3
PUFA's such as DPA may
result in impaired
development of visual acuity
and motor skills, according
to several studies.
The relative proportions
of Omega-3 PUFA in most fish
oils does not correspond
well with that of human
breast milk, but Harp Seal
Oil into the human body is
easier and more thorough
than fish oils. In Harp Seal
Oil, the Omega-3 fatty acids
are in the -1 and -3
positions of the
triglyceride molecule (same
as humans) while in fish oil
they are in the -2 position.
The Omega-3 content of Harp
Seal Oil is 20% ~ 25%, which
is higher than most fish
oils, making Harp Seal Oil
supplement a much more
effective source of Omega-3
than fish itself. Harp Seal
Oil is virtually free of
cholesterol, while many fish
and fish oils are relatively
high in cholesterol. Fish
oil is susceptible to
oxidization whereas Harp
Seal Oil is more resistant
to natural oxidative
processes. Preliminary
experiments by Drs. Nakhla
and David have shown that
the extent of oxidization of
Omega-3 PUFA in Harp Seal in
vitro was less than half
observed in fish oils.
Omega-3 in Disease
Prevention
Omega-3 PUFA's decreases
plasma lipids through
reduced synthesis of fatty
acids and very low-density
lipoproteins (VLDL). They
also have a direct effect on
the heart muscle, increase
blood flow, decrease
arrhythmias, improve
arterial compliance,
decrease the size of the
infarct and reduce several
cellular processes that
compromise heart function.
It has also been suggested
that marine oils may retard
atherosclerosis through
their effects on platelet
function,
platelet-endothelial
interactions and
inflammatory response.
Heart Disease
Research has indicates
that Omega-3 can reduce the
risk of primary cardiac
arrest by 70% by reducing
blood vessel blockages.
Other work (Dr. Leof of
Harvard Medical School) has
found that PUFA's can
prevent sudden death from
irregular heartbeats
following a heart attack.
Another study has found that
a diet rich in Omega-3 can
reduce chances of a second
(fatal) heart attack by 30%.
The results are primarily
from the fact that Omega-3
makes the walls of the blood
vessel blockages that are
often the cause of heart
problems.
Mental Illness
A British study claims
that up to 80% of
schizophrenics are deficient
in unsaturated fatty acids
like Omega-3. Omega-3
deficiency has also been
linked to depression and
general mental
deterioration.
Arthritis
More than a dozen studies
confirm that Omega-3 offers
anti-inflammatory relief for
arthritis suffers.
Diabetes
A disorder characterize
by high blood levels of
glucose in the blood.
Diabetes can damage the
large blood vessels
increasing the risk of
stroke, heart attack, and in
the limbs, gangrene. Many
studies now suggest that
Omega-3 is invaluable in
combating circulation
problems associated with
diabetes by rendering the
walls of the veins and
arteries smoother and more
elastic.
Reduces Cholesterol
A person with a high
level of cholesterol came to
the National Hospital in
Nuuk. He had tried different
diets and medical treatment,
but his cholesterol count
was still higher than was it
was before, he was urged to
eat only traditional
Greenland food (Harp Seal
Meat, Fat). In just a month
his cholesterol count fell
by a whole 70%.
