A Partnership in Anti-Aging &
Wellness through a Balanced Inflammation Response
New Chapter Article
 Omega-3 Fatty Acids & Inflammation
The most common buzz word when it comes to health
these days is the idea of essential fatty acids. These “good fats”
which provide many health benefits are considered “essential” because
they cannot be produced by the body alone and must be consumed through
our diet and food supplements. Perhaps the most important class of
essential fatty acids are Omega-3’s – which help the body maintain
cellular health and help modulate our natural inflammation response.
As much as 8% of the human brain consists of Omega 3 fatty acids, so
we shouldn’t be surprised that these essential fats also promote brain
health.
The Great EFA Balancing Act
Of key importance to maintaining a healthy
inflammation response is to create a balance of essential fatty acids
within our bodies. In particular, it’s very important that we balance
the ratio of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. Several sources suggest
that humans evolved with a diet that consisted of a 1:1 ratio. This
makes intuitive sense as Omega-6 fatty acids, such as arachidonic
acid, are pro-inflammatory and Omega-3 fatty acids are
anti-inflammatory. Keeping these essential fats in balance helps
promote a healthy inflammation response.
 The
modern western diet, however, which provides Omega-6 fatty acids from
sources like eggs, cereals, vegetable oils, baked goods and margarine
has pushed the limits way beyond the 1:1 ratio. Experts suggest the
average western diet accounts for a 15:1 Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratio.
With pro-inflammatory fats outnumbering anti-inflammatory 15:1, our
diet sets the stage for higher levels of inflammation. While reducing
our intake of Omega-6’s is important, increasing our intake of
Omega-3’s through supplements like
New Chapter’s
Supercritical DHA 100 is an even better approach to help
promote a healthy inflammation response.
Zyflamend – An Herbal Therapeutic That Promotes
A Healthy Inflammation Response
Omega-3 Fatty Acids are the fuel our bodies need to
modulate inflammation. In addition to these essential fats, scientists
have also discovered many herbs that if sufficiently concentrated and
intelligently blended can safely, powerfully and naturally modulate
our natural inflammation response.
 New
Chapter’s herbal therapeutic
Zyflamend is America’s #1 selling herbal therapeutic for
non-chronic inflammation management, and continues to undergo studies
at some of the most respected research institutions in the world
(according to 2008 SPINS Data).
Zyflamend is a combination of ten herbs used for thousands of
years by millions of people to promote health and longevity. The herbs
have been extracted and formulated to maximize their effectiveness and
to contain active levels of dozens of key constituents that science
has recognized as antioxidants (key nutrients demonstrated to slow and
reduce biological aging by protecting cells from oxidative stress and
damage) that also promote a healthy inflammation response.
New Chapter’s unique patented herbal formula,
Zyflamend represents a scientific breakthrough in the
maintenance of a healthy inflammation response. Recent preliminary
research suggests that daily Zyflamend supplementation may promote a
healthy inflammation response and promote normal cardiovascular and
joint function.
A Partnership for Anti-Aging and a Healthy
Inflammation Response
By following an approach that both adds the fuel to
reduce inflammation in the body (Omega-3 Fatty Acids from
SuperCritical DHA) and a natural herbal complex that modulates the
enzymes creating inflammation (Zyflamend), then we have a powerful and
natural approach to help our bodies maintain a balanced inflammation
response and obtain the anti-aging benefits from our healthy
inflammation response.
