Omega Complete Cell Protection - 120 Capsules

Name: Omega Complete Cell Protection (Deutsch: Omega Complete Zellschutz)
Product form: Capsules
Ingredients: Fish oil (30 % omega-3 fatty acids), borage oil (17 % GLA), linseed oil (38 % ALA), gelatine (capsule shell), D-alpha-tocopherol

Omega Complete Cell Protection is a food supplement with a carefully balanced combination of animal and plant-based oils. It supplies the essential, polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA from fish oil as well as ALA from linseed oil. The formula is complemented by the omega-6 fatty acid GLA from borage oil and vitamin E as a contribution to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.

Uses and Effects

Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil (EPA and DHA): EPA and DHA are essential, polyunsaturated fatty acids that the body cannot produce in sufficient quantities on its own. Omega Complete Cell Protection delivers 192 mg EPA and 120 mg DHA from high-quality fish oil per daily dose. 

ALA from linseed oil: Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) is a plant-based omega-3 fatty acid from linseed oil. Each daily dose contains 138 mg ALA. ALA is an essential fatty acid that must be obtained through diet or supplementation. 

GLA from borage oil: Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) is a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid from borage oil. Each daily dose contains 68 mg GLA. Borage oil is one of the richest natural sources of GLA. 

Vitamin E (D-alpha-tocopherol): Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. The daily dose of 27 mg alpha-tocopherol equivalents corresponds to 225 % of the recommended reference intake according to EU Regulation 1169/2011. 

Intake recommendation: The recommended daily intake is 4 capsules per day. This amount must not be exceeded. The product is not a substitute for a balanced and varied diet. Further information on intake can be found in the "Preparation" tab. Further information on use can be found in the "Indications" tab.

About the Product

Omega Complete Cell Protection combines animal and plant-based oils in a purposefully balanced capsule formula. The fish oil supplies the long-chain omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, which are frequently underrepresented in the western diet. The linseed oil complements the formula as a plant-based source of ALA, the shortest of the three main forms of omega-3 fatty acids. Borage oil is one of the most concentrated plant-based sources of GLA and rounds off the fatty acid combination. D-alpha-tocopherol as the natural form of vitamin E protects the unsaturated fatty acids in the capsule from oxidation and simultaneously contributes to cell protection in the body.

Background: Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are essential nutrients that the human body cannot synthesise on its own. They must therefore be obtained through diet or targeted supplementation. EPA and DHA occur naturally in oily sea fish, ALA in plant-based oils such as linseed or walnut oil, and GLA in borage and evening primrose oil.

Historical background: The health significance of omega-3 fatty acids has been intensively researched in science since the 1970s, triggered by observations of the diet of indigenous populations in Greenland. Since then, EPA, DHA and ALA have become among the most thoroughly studied nutrients worldwide. Vitamin E as a fat-soluble antioxidant has been used for decades in natural medicine and modern nutritional science to support cell protection.
