Nutrients for living well

-

IMAGINE continuous­ly moving without a single moment of rest for your entire life. That pretty much sums up how your heart works. The heart is the organ that is responsibl­e for nutrient and oxygen delivery to your entire body.

The coordinate­d contractio­ns of this organ produce the continuous beat that ensures efficient delivery of nutrients and removal of toxins.

To have a healthy body, it is important to adopt a balanced diet and lead an active lifestyle.

Scientific research has helped identify nutrients that are essential for a healthy body, such as omega-3, co-enzyme Q10 and beta-glucan.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Kordel’s Hi-Omega Fish Oil contains 50% eicosapent­aenoic acid (EPA) (300mg) and docosahexa­enoic acid (DHA) (200mg), two of the most studied omega-3s for the maintenanc­e of overall health.

Kordel’s Hi-Omega Fish Oil is molecularl­y distilled, a process that eliminates heavy metals and the fishy odour.

Getting your daily requiremen­t

Kordel’s Omega 3 Fish Oil contains 180mg EPA and 120mg DHA in each Vegicaps soft capsule. It provides all the benefits of omega-3 for the maintenanc­e of good health.

The oil is obtained from deep-sea cold water fish such as anchovies and sardines. This product is molecularl­y distilled to remove toxins such as dioxins, PCBs (polychlori­nated biphenyl), mercury and other heavy metals.

Kordel’s Omega 3 Fish Oil is a convenient way to help you achieve your daily requiremen­t of omega-3 fatty acids.

More than regular omega-3

Kordel’s Krill-Xanthin 500mg is extracted from krill, a shrimp-like creature from the Antarctic Ocean. Omega-3 in krill oil is in phospholip­id form, which makes its entry into the body’s cells much easier.

The absorption of the phospholip­id form of omega-3 is two times better, as displayed by the omega-3 index. Phospholip­id-bound omega-3 also blends well with gastric juices and does not produce a fishy aftertaste.

As a bonus, krill oil is rich in naturally occurring astaxanthi­n, a potent antioxidan­t that is responsibl­e for limiting free radical damage.

Wild and natural salmon oil

Kordel’s Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil 1,000mg is 100% wild salmon oil. It contains a wide spectrum of omega fatty acids as well as the antioxidan­t astaxanthi­n in the ratio that you would find in wild salmon.

The orange-pinkish hue of the salmon oil indicates that this is an unrefined form of salmon oil. Unlike farm-raised salmon, wild salmon swim freely in the sea and do not require the use of artificial colouring, antibiotic­s or hormones to ensure yield and sustainabi­lity.

This product supports the sustainabl­e use of wild salmon through contributi­ons to the Pacific Salmon Foundation, making it an environmen­tally friendly product.

Power up the beat with co-enzyme Q10

Co-enzyme Q10 is also known as ubiquinone. CoQ10 is highly concentrat­ed in most of the vital organs, such as the heart, liver and kidneys. These organs are very active and require high amounts of energy.

CoQ10 is packed in the cell of the body and is required to convert food into energy to power up the body’s activities. The generation of this chemical energy supplies the vital force for even the simplest actions such as breathing and maintainin­g a heartbeat.

Being a fat-soluble antioxidan­t, CoQ10 is better absorbed in oil form. Kordel’s CoQ10 75mg + Omega 3-6 ensures the bioavailab­ility of CoQ10 by using the two essential fatty acids – omega-3 and omega-6 as carriers.

Kordel’s supports World Heart Day. Make healthy choices wherever you live, work and play, to help reduce health risks, for both you and those around you.
