“POOR DIET PLAYS A BIG ROLE IN INCREASING THE RISK FOR
DISEASES SUCH ASCANCER, HEART DISEASE,
STROKE, OBESITY AND DIABETES.”
THE SOUTH AFRICAN DIETThe recent South African National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (SANHANES) revealed that South Africans do not eat enough fruit, vegetables and cold water fatty fish.
ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS Accredited literature indicates that marine-derived fish oil, plant-derived carotenes, as
well as vitamin E are essential to maintaining good health.
CLOSING THE NUTRITION GAPResearch suggests that food supplements may be helpful to ensure that South Africans
get all the vitamins and minerals necessary to achieve optimum health.
CHOOSING A TRUSTED SUPPLEMENTGlobally, the omega-3 fatty acid supplement industry is expanding rapidly, yet research
shows that the industry is not adequately regulated and controlled. In 2012, 63 commercially available omega-3 fatty acid supplements in South Africa were tested.
ONLY 52% HAD ACCURATELY LABELLED THE EICOSAPENTAENOIC ACID (EPA) CONTENT (A FATTY ACID).
MORE THAN 80% OF SUPPLEMENTS HAD PEROXIDE LEVELS HIGHER THAN THE RECOMMENDED CONTENT.
44% OF SUPPLEMENTS WERE FOUND TO BE IN EARLY STAGES OF RANCIDITY.
WHY SUPPLEMENT YOUR DIET?
OUR BODIES REQUIRE AN INTAKE OF 200-250G COLD WATER FATTY FISH PER WEEK PLUS AT LEAST FIVE DAILY PORTIONS OF A VARIETY
OF AND .
STUDIES SHOW THAT SOUTH AFRICANS CONSUME LESS THAN 1/2 THE RECOMMENDED AMOUNT OF AND PER DAY.
THE BODY CANNOT MAKE ITS OWN OMEGA-3 FOUND IN FISH OILS AND
SOME PLANT OILS.

“YELLOW-ORANGE AND DARK GREEN VEGETABLES HAVE HIGHER LEVELS OF CAROTENES AND ARE
CONSIDERED THE BEST CHOICES.”
“HERRING, MACKEREL AND PILCHARDS ARE A GOOD SOURCE OF OMEGA-3, BUT ARE EXPENSIVE TO EAT ON A
DAILY BASIS AND ARE NOT POPULAR FISH FOODS INSOUTH AFRICA, HENCE THE NECESSITY
FOR A FISH OIL SUPPLEMENT.”
“THIS SITUATION PROMPTED RESEARCHERS TODEVELOP THEIR OWN SUPPLEMENT
– OMEGA CARO-E.”
