Provinal® Purified Omega-7: The Science Behind Cardia 7®

What is Cardia 7®?

Cardia 7® is a safe and effective dietary supplement formulated with Provinal®, a patented and ultra-purified source of Palmitoleic Acid (Omega-7). Unlike generic supplements, this monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) is completely palmitic acid-free.

Each small, easy-to-swallow softgel delivers a daily dosage of 420 mg (providing 210 mg of pure palmitoleic acid). We offer flexible supply options with bottles containing 30, 60, or 90 softgels—perfect for a one, two, or three-month regimen.

What is Provinal®?

Provinal® is a clinically validated and scientifically studied Omega-7 fatty acid. It works differently than popular Omega-3s by acting as a signaling molecule. It facilitates healthy communication between muscle and fat cells to optimize energy utilization, fat storage, and metabolism. See our full Omega-7 vs. Omega-3 comparison for more detail.

This unique mechanism helps combat the disruptions in metabolic signaling often referred to as metabolic syndrome. By promoting a healthy inflammatory response, Provinal® provides therapeutic benefits for the metabolism of glucose and insulin.

Key Benefits of Purified Omega-7

Cardia 7® works naturally with your body to deliver comprehensive health support:

  • Heart Health: Helps support and maintain overall cardiovascular function. See the research behind this.
  • Cholesterol Support: Helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
  • Inflammation Control: Assists with a healthy inflammatory response throughout the body.
  • Dry Eye Relief: Improves tear quality to combat factors related to dry eye and reduce inflammation. Learn more about TearHealth and the tear film research.
  • Convenient & Natural: Safe, effective, and 100% natural with just one softgel per day.

The Provinal® Purity Standard

To maximize health benefits, purity is critical. Provinal® sets the industry standard by removing saturated fatty acids—specifically "bad" palmitic acid—while expressing high levels of beneficial palmitoleic acid. See how this compares to sea buckthorn-based Omega-7.

  • Palmitic Acid-Free: We remove the saturated fats shown to have negative health effects.
  • 5-Star IFOS™ Rated: Provinal® is the only Omega-7 to earn a 5-Star rating from the International Fish Oil Standards™ Program.
  • Sustainable Sourcing: Sourced from Chilean and Peruvian waters. Contains no shellfish or krill.
  • Certified Safe: Provinal® is both GRAS Certified (Generally Recognized as Safe) and NDI Certified (New Dietary Ingredient).

The Difference: Why Less is More

Patented Provinal® is the only Omega-7 on the market with less than 1% Palmitic Acid. This is crucial because studies have shown that Palmitic Acid can actually negate the positive effects of Palmitoleic Acid. With Cardia 7®, you get the medicine without the toxin.
