How Easily Absored Is Your Fish Oil? A Simple Home Test To Determine Your Fish Oil Quality

Not all fish oils are created equal but how can you determine if your fish oil is a quality fish oil? Here is a simple test that you can perform at home to understand that fish oils are quite different.
 
Take a styrofoam egg carton and cut two or three egg holding sections out. Take one or two capsules of your current fish oil brand and take one or two of our Life's Abundance SeaLogix fish oil capsules.  Snip or puncture the end of the capsules.  Place the Life's Abundance SeaLogix fish oil in one section and your current fish oil in another.
 
Note* When using the Life's Abundance SeaLogix with Sesamin you will notice that it has a different consistency than the 8 oz. Life's Abundance SeaLogix liquid. This is due to the addition of the sesamin
and will not effect the overall results of this test other than slightly slow down the process.

This test only takes about 15 minutes and the fish oil will start to pass through the styrofoam within a short period of time. The fact that fish oil can pass through plastic is actually a very good thing! Our intestinal tracts are designed to absorb very very tiny molecules after a food or substance has been digested.  Because Life's Abundance SeaLogix fish oil is in a smaller molecular form, more of it can be absorbed in proportion than other fish oils that have not gone through this type of refinement. This is also why Life's Abundance SeaLogix fish oil is easier on the digestive system in reality because the body does not have to work to break it down in order to use higher amounts of it. If the other fish oil you are testing is a typical health food grade, it will sit in the styrofoam for hours and or days without even attempting to pass through and even molecularly distilled fish oils will sit there. Some fish oils may attempt to disfigure the surface, but they simply don't pass through, or they don't pass through as easily and take a lot longer.  This tells you that they are not as small of a molecule as Life's Abundance SeaLogix fish oil and therefore are not as available for absorption in the intestinal tract.
 
There are other oils that readily pass through the egg carton material but please note that fish oil may or may not be as fresh as ours because of the fact that it has been handled via wharehouses that may or may not be adequately climate controlled and may have sat for hours in a truck during hot weather. Fish oils are very unstable in nature and MUST BE KEPT cool and many of the trucks used to ship them sit for hours in the hot sun on the highway and this can cause a fish oil to be in the beginning stages of rancidity or fully rancid by the time you, the consumer purchases them. 
 
There is also the case of the lawsuit in CA for truth in labeling where they took many brands and had them tested for purity and a lot of them did not pass. Some had very high levels of dioxin and the labels claimed that they were free of contaminants and some were even molecularly distilled fish oils. For more information on that you can Google Artilcle 65 court case in CA for fish oils. It is also interesting to note that one of the companies listed in the class action lawsuit is a major supplier to other companies
selling fish oils!

IFOS, the International Fish Oil Standards organization is widely recognized as the world’s premier fish oil testing agency and does independant testing. Please be sure to use only a 5 Star Fish Oil which is the highest possible rating a fish oil can receive and has received it from IFOS.
