Launch of new Omega-3 supplements

Posted by gen

Posted in Health & Beauty, News

In order to benefit from a healthy body, doctors recommend healthy eating habits, amongst other things.  It can be challenging between work and family life, to find the time to cook a good healthy meal, however.

This is why a large number of people are introducing supplements to their diet in order to make sure their body receives all the nourishment that it needs.

Mannatech Incorporated recently launched its first product: Essential Source Omega-3. This new omega-3 supplement contains the essential fatty acids named  EPA and DHA which are valuable for the health of your brain and cardiovascular system. You may be asking what is so special about another Omega-3 product when there are so many already available on the market?  Mannatech’s new product doesn’t come with the unpleasant taste of fish generally found most omega-3s.  In fact, when comes time to take your supplement, you will be pleased to find a taste of lemon rather than the one of fish oil!

Unfortunately, although it is already available in the States, Canadians will have to wait until December 2009 to reap the health benefits of this supplement.
