| | What you NEED to look for in choosing the right Essential Fatty Acid for your pets (There is a HUGE difference in quality)
Essential Fatty Acids
Dogs and cats require omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids in the diet because they cannot produce these essential fatty acids on their own.
This is a list of the Essential Fatty Acids... |

| Quality of Supplement
If supplementing a diet with fatty acids, it is important to choose a quality supplement. When choosing a fish oil supplement…Potential exists for nutrient excess (mainly vitamins A and D) and toxin exposure, including mercury exposure with fish oil supplements
The health benefits of fish oil are believed to derive principally from two omega-3 fats, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Flaxseed oil contains a third, plant-based omega-3, alpha-linolenic acid (ALA).
The main problem with ALA in Flax is that to have the good effects attributed to omega-3s, it must be converted by a limited supply of enzymes into EPA and DHA. As a result, only a small fraction of it has omega-3's effects — 10%–15%, maybe less.
Fish oil, rich in healthy polyunsaturated fatty acids, can protect against certain types of cancer, but many types of fish are also contaminated by waterborne toxins. A new study by San Diego State University researchers found that toxin-contaminated fish oil loses much of its cancer-preventative properties.
In 2004, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a recommendation that young children and women who are pregnant or could become pregnant should avoid eating large amounts of fish and shellfish. Nearly all fish and shellfish contain mercury, which is especially hazardous for developing children. In recent years, the agency has expanded the warning to note that fish also frequently contain dangerous chemicals called polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBs.
PCBs belong to a class of chemicals—known at persistent organic pollutants (POPs)—that break down extremely slowly in the environment.
"Large fish are now mostly the source of POP contamination for humans," said the new study's lead author, San Diego State University nutrition professor Mee Young Hong.
Why TOXIN FREE Krill can be BETTER
Krill having a very short lifespan and being very low on the food chain have little to no measurable environmental toxins.
Krill provides similar EFA profile as fish oil, but without the toxic RISK

| P.S. Essential Fatty Acids are the FIRST supplement I ever advised clients to give to their pets in practice 30 years ago!
They have numerous potential health benefits ( is Allergies, Arthritis, Inflammatory Disorders etc..), BUT it is important that you are not giving one that may contain harmful toxins...
P.S. If you have questions that need to be answered, then you need to sign up to the webinar! Plus...it's Free :-)
P.P.S. I am recording the webinar so you can watch a replay IF you can't make it, BUT this is available ONLY to those who sign up.
