What is Purified Omega-7?
Palmitic Acid-Free Omega-7 (Palmitoleic Acid): Provinal® Purified Omega-7 fatty acids set the standard for purity — undergoing a unique process to remove saturated fatty acids and express high levels of palmitoleic acid (C16:1n7). This has been shown to help maintain normal C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. Other Omega-7 formulations on the market may contain upwards of 30% Palmitic Acid, a saturated fatty acid that has been shown to have negative health effects.
What's the recommended dosage? 210mg OR 420mg?
Dr. Michael Roizen recommends 420mg per day. However, in a recent double-blind placebo controlled study, a daily intake of 210 mg of Omega-7 was better than placebo at managing cholesterol, triglycerides, and a healthy response to inflammation.
How many softgels are in Cardia 7?
Our bottles are available in 30, 60, & 90 softgel counts (a one, two, or three month supply). The daily dosage is 420 mg/day (210 mg palmitoleic acid) in one small softgel.
What is different about Omega-7 compared to other fatty acids?
Omega-7 has been documented to have a broader range of activity than Omega-3s. Virtually all research published in leading scientific journals shows that Omega-7 actions include: improvements in lipid profiles, anti-inflammatory actions, improved insulin sensitivity & glucose metabolism, and even prevention of cholesterol deposition.
Are there other Omega-7 products on the market?
Yes, but most come from Sea Buckthorn (a plant source). These typically contain only ~26% Omega-7 and high concentrations of Palmitic Acid (the "bad fat"). Cardia 7 uses Provinal®, a purified source with over 50% Omega-7 and less than 1% Palmitic Acid.
Can Omega-7 be taken in conjunction with statins?
Yes. There are no known side effects or contraindications, but you should always consult with your Doctor about any supplements you are taking.
What are the gel caps made of?
Cardia 7 capsules are encapsulated in premium bovine gelatin.
Is Cardia 7 processed with gluten, dairy, or tapioca?
Cardia 7 capsules are produced in a state-of-the-art softgel encapsulation facility. Other oils (including wheat germ and parsley) are potentially processed on the same equipment; however, with strict GMP cleaning procedures in place, potential allergen threats are minimized.
