Daily dosage of omega-3 in the zone diet
Good morning, I am a person who is following the Zone Diet (I suffer from obesity). I am planning to try your products: so far I have been using Enerzona 1-gram tablets by taking 4 a day: by purchasing your 1-gram tablets, can the dosage remain the same? Thank you in advance.
Dear Simona,
our Omegor Vitality is an ultra-pure, concentrated supplement in which the Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA are found in the form of re-esterified triglycerides (rTG). In the product you currently use they are found in the form of ethyl esters (EE).
Several scientific studies have shown that rTGs are absorbed 70 percent more than EE For the zone diet, a daily intake of 2.5 grams of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids is recommended: a daily dose of 3 to 4 pearls of Omegor Vitality will meet this requirement. 3 pearls contain 1.89 grams of EPA+DHA (630 milligrams per pearl), which due to the better absorption of the triglyceride form is equivalent to about 3.213 grams of EPA+DHA compared to products in EE form.
The beads can be taken as a single serving or at different times of the day, just before or at a main meal to improve the absorption and digestibility of the product.
Sincerely.
Dr. Rosaria Ramondino Pharmacist and Pharmaceutical Chemist
