Preventative health
Look after your health before problems arise.
Preventative health means acting early. You find out where you are now. You make informed choices. Then you support your body day by day. LIF3 is built around that idea, and it starts with a test.
Why balance matters
Every cell is wrapped in a layer of fat.
Each cell in your body has a thin outer layer called a membrane. It is made largely of fats.
The fats you eat help decide what that layer is made of.
The membrane controls what passes in and out of the cell. Nutrients come in and waste goes out.
Omega-3 and omega-6 fats both have their place in it. The balance between them is part of how your cells work normally. When the balance tips too far one way, the membrane is built from a different mix of fats.
So where is your balance today? A test is the way to find out.
Omega-3 and omega-6
Two families of fats. One balance.
Omega-6 fats are common in modern food. Many foods are made with seed oils, which are rich in omega-6.
Omega-3 fats come mainly from oily fish and some algae. Many people eat few of these foods.
Our ancestors ate differently. Their food gave them a different balance of fats.
Today an unfavourable balance is common. Modern diets can make a healthy omega-3 status hard to reach.
Why test first
Why test before you buy?
People buy supplements all the time without knowing:
- Whether their body needs them.
- Whether they are getting enough.
- Whether they are working for them.
- Whether their body is using them well.
- Whether they are spending money on something they don't need.
That is why LIF3 starts with a test. It shows your own status and lets you measure changes over time.
The journey
Test, understand, support. Retest, maintain.
Test to see where you are. Understand your report. Support your balance with the oil and your daily habits.
Your red blood cells live about four months. So you test again after about four months to see your progress.
The second test is a checkpoint. The journey carries on. Many people keep taking the oil because they value it and want to keep their omega-3 status where it is.
The oil
Fresh oil, in amber glass.
Freshness matters with oils. MarisOmega of Imperial-Oel-Import has made oil in Hamburg since 1920.
Every bottle is filled with nitrogen, so air can't spoil the oil. The oil keeps the natural triglyceride form the fat has in the fish.
Choose wild-caught fish oil or plant oil from microalgae.
How much to take
Your serving is on the label. It can depend on your body weight.
Each 5 ml of fish oil gives 1300 mg of EPA and DHA. The plant oil gives 1100 mg per 5 ml.
The standard
Made to the same standard as baby milk.
Our oil is made to those same quality standards. It comes from the same family oil house in Hamburg.
