Frequently asked questions

Why supplement your diet with Omega-3 rich fish oil?

The NHS recommends eating two portions of fish a week including one oily such as Salmon or Mackerel. Most people in the UK do not eat this much and this can be especially hard for children or fussy eaters. 

 

Oily fish contains Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) which have numerous health benefits in the body including supporting normal brain function and vision and supporting heart health. 

 

DHA) and EPA can be made from ALA, Alpha-lipoic acid which is found in flaxseeds, chia seeds,  walnuts, tofu and spinach. However, factors such as age, poor dietary choices including an excess of saturated fats  can reduce the body’s efficiency in this process which is why supplementation can be useful. 

Is the fish oil included in Efamol products tested for mercury levels?

Yes, every batch must contain less than 0.01 parts per million (ppm) of mercury. The fish oil is also tested for approximately 50 other potential environmental contaminants (heavy metals, PCBs, pesticides, etc).

What parts of the fish are used to make the oil

For all Efamol fish oils, the raw material is high-quality sustainably sourced food-grade fish body oil. The whole fish is used. Body oil is naturally lower in environmental toxins than liver oils.

 

Liver oils contain high levels of Vitamin A and Vitamin D. It is possible to exceed the recommended daily allowance for Vitamin A in particular when trying to achieve the required dosage of Omega-3 fatty acids from liver oils - particularly when taken in combination with other vitamin supplements.

 

Women who are pregnant must take care taking any supplements containing Vitamin A and not exceed the recommended daily intake, this would include from your diet and supplement programme. Cod liver oil is rich in this nutrient and extra care should be taken.

How long will it take before I feel the full benefits Efamol Efalex Brain Formula?

It may take up to 12 weeks as fatty acid supplementation provides nutrients that have been depleted from the body and correcting this takes time to achieve maximum benefit. We recommend optimising your body's natural store of these important nutrients by doubling the recommended intake in the first 12 weeks. 

Why does Efamol recommend doubling the daily dose for the first 12 weeks?

Fatty acid supplementation provides nutrients that have been depleted from the body and correcting this takes time to achieve maximum benefit. Doubling the dose within the first 12 weeks helps speed up this correction process. 

Why are thyme oil and vitamin E added to Efalex Capsules and Efalex Liquid?

Thyme oil and vitamin E are included due to their antioxidant properties: these ingredients help protect the fatty acids in Efalex from damaging oxidation.

Can I take any Efamol Efalex Brain Formula with other medications or supplements?

Anyone under medical supervision or taking medication should consult their health care provider seek medical advice before taking any supplement, including those in the Efamol range. There are no known contraindications with other supplements so there should not be a problem taking Efamol products at the same time as other vitamin and mineral supplements.

Care should be taken when combining a range of products into a supplement programme to unsure that the upper safety limits of nutrients are not exceeded.

Inspired by nature, anchored in science

Your brain is one of your body's hungriest organs, requiring a constant supply of energy and nutrients for it to function at its best. The omega fatty acid DHA is one of the most abundant fatty acids in your brain, and for 30 years we've been pioneering the research into it's vital role in brain health. Getting enough DHA in your diet can be difficult, particularly if you don't eat oily fish. Supporting your brain health with a DHA-rich supplement such as Efalex Brain Formula helps make sure you're supplying your mind with the right nutrients for it to function as it should.
