Drs. Oz and Roizen: “Start taking another odd omega, purified Omega-7″

Inflammation-The-Secret-KillerOmega is the last letter of the Greek alphabet, but you can bet this isn’t the last you’ll be hearing about purified omega-7, a healthy fatty acid like omega-3, that decreases body-wide inflammation. (Important tip: You want only purified omega-7, or palmitoleic acid, not the one from sea buckhorn. That’s [got ] palmitic acid [in it that] INCREASES inflammation.)

Recently, we got a letter from a guy who’s taking purified omega-7 and wanted to reassure his wife it was a smart move. Well, he can tell her that only good things come from taking it. In fact, she may find he’s now like Alien Burt in the ’70s sitcom “Soap.” (If you recall, Bert had bouts of impotence with his wife Mary, but when aliens captured him and sent a replica – Alien Bert – to take over his life, including sleeping with his wife Mary, she was left without any complaints.) And here’s what else purified omega-7 may do for you (the studies are preliminary):

“Purified omega-7 seems to lower levels of [...] C-reactive protein.”

Purified omega-7 seems to lower levels of [...] C-reactive protein. Elevated levels of CRP indicate how inflamed your artery walls are. Reduce that inflammation, and you may lower your risk for heart disease, stroke, memory loss, wrinkles and even impotence. Early studies also show purified omega-7 might decrease fatty liver and insulin resistance, lower blood sugar and decrease triglyceride and lousy LDL cholesterol levels, while increasing good HDL.

We don’t see any negative side effects from taking this friendly fat. That’s why Dr. Mike takes 420 mg of purified omega-7 a day.

The Napalm Connection to the Inflammation in Your Body

If you only knew what’s lurking inside the foods you’re eating (you probably wouldn’t eat them). Or at the very least, you’d be equally mindful of what you leave out of your diet as what you put in it.

What to leave in, what to leave out

Many experts now recognize inflammation as a key factor in many human ailments, especially those associated with the metabolic syndrome, which consists of the triad of insulin resistance, obesity, and cardiovascular disease.

The word “napalm” is derived from the words naphthenic acid and palmitic acid

 

One of the biggest culprits we unwittingly consume whenever we eat foods with saturated fats is a fatty acid called “Palmitic Acid”.

“ First, do no harm”

While there have been many treatments designed to lessen the harmful effects of inflammation in the body, perhaps the best advice to follow is that of Hippocrates that says:   First, do no harm, and avoid or consume in moderation the foods that contribute to inflammation.

Omega 7 Palmitoleic Acid: A New Hope

There is a new fight–a struggle between good and evil.

It’s happening in our own bodies. It’s happening with our food choices.

Many of the foods that are killing us are hiding in plain sight–many contain a saturated fatty acid called palmitic acid, which is prevalent foods that are high in saturated fats, such as processed meets, cheeses, and dairy products.

Body Wars

There is a War for Good and Evil in our own Bodies

Not all Fatty Acids were created equal

On one hand you have Palmitic Acid, a “bad fatty acid”. A saturate, it is well documented that palmitic acid has been shown to have toxic effects on pancreatic beta cells, leading to a greater chance for insulin resistance and subsequent development of diabetes.

On the other hand you have Palmitoleic Acid, a “good fatty acid”. A Monounsaturated fatty acid, it protects against the negative effects of Palmitic Acid. You can reduce the negative impact of the saturates in your diet by ingesting higher concentrations of the “good fatty acids”.

A Good Fat? That helps you lose weight? For real?

It is common knowledge in the scientific community that adipose tissue (commonly known as body fat) produces hormones. Leptin, for example, which regulates weight gain.

A breakthrough discovery

Omega 7 Palmitoleic Acid

The thin mouse was administered Palmitoleic Acid

In the fall of 2008, the journal “Cell” reported the discovery of a new type of adipose hormone. What was unusual about this one is that it is a “lipokine“, a  new class of hormone that is not a steroid or protein–but a fatty acid.

The newly discovered liopkine is called C16:1n7-palmitoleate. It is a particular version of a sixteen-carbon chain derived from the monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) palmitoleic acid.

The positive health benefits of monounsaturated fats… [Read more...]

Why Cardia 7 with Provinal is the best source for Omega 7 on the Market

We unwittingly consume enough bad

One of the “toxins” many people consume every day comes in the form of palmitic acid they ingest whenever they eat foods containing saturated fats (meats, cheeses, dairy).

Palmitic acid has been shown to increase insulin resistance, kill beta cells in the pancreas, and turn the switch off that tells you when you’re full.

On the other hand, palmitoleic acid has been shown to increase insulin sensitivity by suppressing inflammation…. as well as inhibit the destruction of beta cells caused by saturates.

You need more good, less bad…

So in order to reduce the amount of toxins in our body, everyone should: (1)  reduce intake of saturated fats in your diet, and (2) take a supplement rich in palmitoleic acid.

While there are current formulations of Omega 7 on the market they should not be confused with Cardia 7. The concentration of Palmitic Acid from sea buckthorn sources contains upwards of 40% of Palmitic Acid, which actually exceeds the concentration in those preparations of the “good fatty acid”, Palmitoleic Acid. The concentration of Palmitic Acid in Cardia 7 is currently limited to less than 1%.

Cardia 7 is the best source for Omega 7 on the market because Provinal is 45% Ultrapurified Omega 7 (palmitoleic acid), and we’ve taken great pains to remove the palmitic acid.

Hence “more of the good” and “less (or virtually none) of the bad”.

Your turn…

Did you know about the negative side effects of Palmitic Acid? Have you taken Omega 7 in the past? Will this information prompt you to change your diet?
