Oceans 3™ - Beyond Omega 3 - 60 Softgels

The idea struck Jordan Rubin, founder of Garden of Life® as so many of them do. In his sleep. It was an idea that addressed the most pervasive health challenges in America today. Jordan was convinced that the ocean represents one of the last frontiers for health. He also believed that it has more to offer than just fish oil. His idea was to combine three superpower ingredients from the ocean into one formula that goes far beyond omega-3s. And it wasn’t just “any three” ingredients. The idea that came to him was to combine three of the most studied, effective and health promoting ingredients the ocean has to offer. They each share many of the same health benefits, in addition to the unique attributes they contain on their own. When combined, they work in concert to amplify their already enormous health potential.

The unique combination of ultra pure fish oil, fucoxanthin and astaxanthin contained exclusively in the Oceans 3 formulas is appropriately named OmegaXanthin™.

The inclusion of fucoxanthin in the Oceans 3™ formulas was a no-brainer for Jordan. Fucoxanthin is a powerful antioxidant and has been shown to support normal cardiovascular function, promote a healthy response to inflammation, and provide antioxidant cellular protection.†

Jordan has been working with astaxanthin in formulations for several years, and when the Oceans 3 concept came along, he went back to the scientific literature and realized the wisdom of featuring this powerhouse carotenoid in Oceans 3. Astaxanthin comes from a tiny microalgae with huge health-giving properties. The list of health benefits from astaxanthin is almost too good to be true. It promotes cardiovascular health, immune system health and joint health.† It even supports the skin structure during sun exposure.†

Of course, fish oil and the omega-3s contained in the Oceans 3 formulas have a long and rich history of health. While the body can produce EPA and DHA from ALA (alpha-linoleic acid), the process is limited to start with— and is further diminished as we age. Increasingly, it is becoming more and more important to provide our bodies with additional EPA and DHA through the foods and oils we consume or the supplements we take. The laundry list of health benefits from omega-3s (including cardiovascular health, brain health and immune health† ) have made fish oils the single best-selling supplement category in health food stores.

The three ingredients found in Oceans 3 are available as stand-alone products. Only Oceans 3 combines these ingredients into a blend called OmegaXanthin. OmegaXanthin allows fish oil, astaxanthin and fucoxanthin to achieve far more together than these already powerful compounds could do on their own. This powerful combination is only available in Oceans 3 formulas.
