An excerpt from my recent publication:

Our diet today, is vastly different from that of our ancestor. In early times hunting, fishing and gathering of foods was an important part of the lifestyle of the day, and natural foods were at their best. Consequently, a biological preferable ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 fatty acids was consumed.

Gradually, over the centuries, for various reasons including convenience, we began preparing and eating less and less fish and other marine mammals. As a result, our diet today is deficient in Omega 3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), a most important "essential" fatty acid for human development and health. An "essential" fatty acid is one that cannot be produced by the body and must be obtained from a food source. 

Today, the medical profession is treating more and more incidences of heart disease, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, inflammatory diseases such as Rheumatoid Arthritis and Crohn's disease, in addition to cancers and depression. A major contributing factor to such diseases is deficiency in essential fatty acids. Scientific studies have shown the importance of Omega 3 PUFA infant and childhood development and are indicating the crucial need for Omega 3 PUFA in the diet of pregnant women. Therefore, the inclusion of Omega 3 PUFA in our daily diet is important for all ages.

There are a variety of Omega 3 PUFA's available in the market place today. Almost all of them are derived from fish oils. The properties of, and molecular structure of fin fish oils are different from seal oil. Harp seal oil is very rich in DPA, DHA, EPA whereas the presence of DPA can vary from being very little to non-existent in fin fish oils. Human being's molecular structure more efficiently absorbs seal oil. Seals are mammals, just as humans are mammals.

I believe that Harp Seal Oil is the best source of Omega 3 PUFA in the world today.©
