Omega-3 fatty acids, or DHA, first gained respect when the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) gave it a "qualified health claim" status in possibly reducing the risk of coronary heart disease. Omega-3

DHA comes mainly from cold-water oily fish such as salmon, herring, mackerel, anchovies and sardines, but because we have callously turned our oceans into a cesspool, many species of fish now contain methyl mercury levels that exceed the FDA's 1 part per million (ppm) limit. 

In fact, the FDA said fish should not be eaten more than once a week to ensure safety. So how do you get your DHA but not mercury into your system? Wellness International Network just launched its WINOmeg3complexTM ($49.99), a concentrated pharmaceutical-grade oil with 88% omega-3 fatty acids. Because the oil is produced through an enzyme process and molecular distillation, it is guaranteed to be free of mercury and other pollutants that we dumped into the environment in the first place.

Now that we have cleaned up omega-3 fatty acids, isn't it about time we cleaned up our oceans, too?
