Here's how OmegaDaily works

The most common fatty acids are found in animal fats that are created whenever there is a caloric surplus. Your body can make these fats, for instance, when you take in too much food, which is then converted to palmetic, stearic or oleic fat.

The other category is essential fatty acids, including Omega-3, which your body cannot produce on its own, but gets from outside sources.

This is how even overweight people can be seriously deficient in Omega-3. Other essential fatty acids like Omega-6 are everywhere, in corn oil, in soybean oil, sunflower oil and so on. But Omega-3 is much harder to come by. Some plants like flaxseed and walnut are pretty good sources, but the richest sources come from the sea.

Omega-3 is important in so many functions of the body that scientists have devoted hundreds and hundreds of studies to understanding all the different ways it works. How can OmegaDaily produce so many health "miracles" in people? One way, experts say, is by encouraging the production of body chemicals that help control inflammation -- in the joints, the bloodstream, and the tissues.

Control of inflammation - Inflammation is the current buzzword as the cause of nearly all disease. Basically, the human body under stress, injury or infection responds by creating swelling, heat and redness. Unfortunately, inflammation can become chronic, and begins to attack healthy tissues of the organs and joints. OmegaDaily eases inflammation throughout the body and prevents the cycle of chronic destruction from continuing.

The science behind OmegaDaily:

Inflammation is driven at the molecular level. In response to stress or injury, your body converts compounds in the cell membranes and within the body into other substances that are very potent inflammation triggers.

Basically, this happens by two methods:
5-LOX pathway (5-lipoxygenase pathway)
Cyclo pathway (the cyclo-oxygenase pathway)
... Each leading to specific parts of the inflammation response.

Currently, the prescription drugs available work by interrupting the Cyclo pathway. That addresses some of the effects of inflammation, but may cause side effects that contribute to even more complications.

Omega Daily works by inhibiting the 5-LOX Pathway. That means many of the powerful inflammation supporting substances are blocked -- prevented from making inflammation worse! The snowball effect is stopped in its tracks.

All the details:

Initiation and control of the inflammatory process is complex and governed by an array of biomolecular mechanisms. One important pro-inflammatory mechanism is closely associated with cell-membrane bound arachidonic acid, which becomes converted into other compounds in the body which are potent inflammation-supporting substances.

This occurs by two major pathways in our metabolism:

The 5-lipoxygenase pathway leading to the formation of leukotrienes, and the cyclo-oxygenase pathway which leads to the formation of prostaglandins and thromboxanes.

Many of the products of these pathways have potent inflammation-supporting properties. For instance, LTB 4 is a potent chemotactic agent capable of attracting large numbers of leucocytes (white blood cells), to the site of the injury. LTC 4, LTD 4, and LTE 4, which are metabolites of LTB 4, are potent bronchoconstricting agents and were formerly identified as SRS-A's (slow reacting substance of anaphylaxis), a key factor in anaphylactic shock.

Currently used anti-inflammatory drugs function mainly by inhibiting the cyclo-oxygenase pathway. In view of the important functions of the inflammatory process ascribed to the lipoxygenase pathway, there has been considerable scientific effort to develop a 5-lipoxygenase pathway inhibitor over the past decade.

OmegaDaily® is a 5-lipoxygenase pathway inhibitor which is both effective and safe.
