NutraOrigin's Omega-3 Fish Oil Supplements Provide Support to Patients Suffering from Sleep Deprivation

Study validates supplement's use for facilitating sleep deprivation and drowsiness

March 10, 2010 - NutraOrigin's Omega-3 Fish Oil supplements were recently chosen by Advanced Brain Monitoring, Inc. (ABM) for a clinical study investigating the positive effects of omega-3 fish oil on certain sleep disorders. The study found that NutraOrigin's Omega-3 supplement may help in reducing the effects of sleep deprivation and overall drowsiness while also helping to reduce signs of physiological anxiety.

Advanced Brain Monitoring, located in Carlsbad, CA, chose NutraOrigin'sOmega-3 Fish Oil supplement after reviewing many omega-3 supplement options currently available. According to ABM, of the selections reviewed, NutraOrigin's formula was chosen because it met the necessary criteria. Criteria used for selection included EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid)/ DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) concentration, molecular distillation, and product stability. After comparisons between formulas, ABM determined NutraOrigin'sOmega-3 Fish Oil supplements were the clear choice.

The clinical study found the NutraOriginomega-3 supplement to facilitate sleep deprived performance maintenance, reduce overall drowsiness, and improve perceptions of emotional and physical capability. According to ABM, NutraOrigin's omega-3 product was also associated with a trend toward reducing signs of physiological anxiety. Study patients taking the fish oil supplements had better reaction times and less inaccuracy than patients taking the placebo (olive oil) pill. These findings confirm Advanced Brain Monitoring's hypothesis that omega-3 reduces the effects of sleep deprivation.

"We are extremely honored to have been chosen by Advanced Brain Monitoring to participate in this study. We take pride in offering our customers only top-notch products that provide legitimate results for the consumer," says Alex Khesin, Chief Operating Officer for NutraOrigin. "We pursue ongoing research for our products and are excited by the discovery of yet another potential health benefit of Omega-3."

NutraOrigin's omega-3 fish oil supplements are of pharmaceutical grade with high concentrates of EPA and DHA, both of which surpass the amounts found in common fish oil products. These products are certified pure - void of harmful heavy metals, pesticides, yeast, mold, bacteria and other contaminants - and molecularly distilled, providing the maximum amount of DHA and EPA while removing impurities and heavy metals such as mercury and lead. All of NutraOrigin's products contain no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives and use ingredients found in nature whenever possible.

Fish oil is known for much more than reducing the effects of sleep deprivation. In a study conducted by the University of California, San Francisco, researchers found people who had higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids in their blood were more likely to have long telomeres - telomeres are part of a cell's DNA linked to biological aging - making them biologically younger than their real age. Omega-3 fatty acids have also been linked to clinical trials that suggest fish oil supports joint health and mobility by suppressing inflammation in joints. Fish oil is probably most known for its cardiovascular benefits, maintaining healthy triglyceride and blood pressure levels. Other studies have linked fish oil to healthy eyes, brains, and waist lines.
