While the omega-3 fatty acids have significant health benefits, the omega-6 fatty acid gamma linolenic acid (GLA) offers similar benefits.* Borage oil is a rich source of GLA (higher than evening primrose oil). Omega Plus provides an omega 3:6 ratio designed to provide a healthful balance of these important essential fatty acids.* Because the typical diet contains significantly more omega-6 than omega-3 fatty acids, fish oils make up a greater percentage of the product.

Studies yielding positive benefits from a combination of omega-3 fatty acids and GLA demonstrate benefits for bone health as well as the cardiovascular and respiratory systems.* Studies have found a combination of GLA with EPA and DHA helps maintain already normal LDL:HDL ratios and triglyceride levels.

Omega Plus has recently been improved it now contains a higher concentration of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. Recent technology has permitted an increase in the amount of EPA and DHA in each gelcap. This more concentrated formula provides the amounts of EPA and DHA that recent research says is warranted, without having to take extra capsules.* As always, Thorne Research provides the highest quality, purest fish oil available molecular distillation is utilized to ensure removal of cholesterol and contaminants, including PCBs and heavy metals.

    • I was looking for EPA, DHA & GLA to help possibly improve dry eye. Can Omega Plus (EPA, DHA & GLA) do this or should I look for another product with EPA, DHA and GLA?
    • Hello - This product could be beneficial for you. Thorne is a great company and their formulations are typically quite effective. Given the amounts of EPA/DHA and GLA in Omega Plus, I recommend you take 1-2 capsules twice a day for a month with food. Then reduce to taking 2 capsules once a day and maintain at that amount. Dry eyes can also be related to low vitamin A. I recommend you consider liquid vitamin A by Metagenics: http://www.healthegoods.com/mycelized-vitamin-a-liquid-metagenics.html If you want to combine EPA/DHA and Vitamin A together, than I recommend you consider Finest Pure Cod Liver Oil by Pharmax. The taste is excellent. Only issue though is the EPA/DHA is not very potent: http://www.healthegoods.com/finest-pure-cod-liver-oil-300-ml-pharmax.html Chlorine is also drying on the skin, harmful to the lungs and drying to the eyes. Ensuring you are drinking filtered water and using a shower filter is recommended. Our shower filter is here: http://www.healthegoods.com/new-wave-enviro-premium-shower-filter.html Our water filter is here: http://www.healthegoods.com/natural-health-concerns/constipation/premium-10-stage-countertop-water-filter-new-wave-enviro.html If you like taking baths, add a couple grams of powdered vitamin C to your bath water. Vitamin C neutralizes chlorine! If your home is arid and dry, consider placing large bowls or buckets of water around your home to increase the humidity. In health, Dr Ben
