OMEGA OIL – BENEFITS
What is Omega 3,6, and 9? Omega 3 and Omega 6 are essential fatty acids that we need to receive in our diet because they can’t be produced by the body. These fats can help in the regulation and building of cells, building immunity, and can also help the body absorb nutrients.

These polyunsaturated fats are also important for cardiovascular health. A diet lower in saturated fat, supplemented by essential Omega 3 and 6, helps to reduce “bad” LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood.

Triglycerides are types of fat found in the blood, and together with LDL cholesterol may lead to deposits on arterial walls that can restrict the flow of blood throughout the body. Omega 9 is important for heart health and blood sugar control. It is naturally occurring because the body does contain the necessary enzymes for synthesis of Omega 9 to take place. However, there are some cases where the body is unable to produce adequate amounts of Omega 9 on its own, so it is great to have the option of a supplement in your diet.

BENEFITS FOR KIDS, PREGNANT AND BREASTFEEDING MUMS
Good nutrition for motherhood begins before conception, providing a head start for both the mother and baby. It is especially important to have a plentiful supply of nutritious fatty acids, such as Omega 3, 6 and 9 before becoming pregnant and to continue during pregnancy to maintain optimal health.

If your diet contains enough essential fatty acids, then these nutrients will pass easily through the placenta to your baby. Puria® Omega Oil provides essential fatty acids for mother and baby throughout pregnancy, with the added benefit that it has a lower proportion of saturated and trans fatty acids of the total fatty acid content.

Puria Omega Oil provides these essential fatty acids that are important for mother and baby throughout pregnancy, during breastfeeding and early activities for children.

HEART BENEFITS
These polyunsaturated fats are also important for cardiovascular health. A diet lower in saturated fat, which is replaced by essential Omega 3 and 6, helps to reduce “bad” LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood, that can leave deposits on arterial walls and restrict the flow of blood throughout the body.

Omega 9 is important for heart health and blood sugar control. It’s naturally present in the body because the body has the necessary enzymes for the synthesis of Omega 9. However, there are some cases where the body is unable to produce adequate amounts of Omega 9 on its own, so it is ideal to have the option of a dietary source.

WHY IS VITAMIN D NEEDED?
Vitamin D contributes to normal growth and development in children, is necessary for normal bone structure, maintenance of normal teeth and the immune system.
Because it is not recommended to expose infants to sunlight and it may also be difficult to receive sufficient Vitamin D from a normal diet, Vitamin D supplements for infants and children may be required.
Puria Vitamin D drops are suitable as a source of Vitamin D to assist in cases of Vitamin D deficiency or as an easy of way ensuring that your child is receiving regular Vitamin D. If you are unsure if this supplement is right for your child, contact your medical health professional.

From Ministry of Health NZ website:
“Deficiency of Vitamin D results in inadequate mineralisation or demineralisation of the skeleton. This can lead to rickets in young children, causing bowed legs and knocked knees. A study in China showed that vitamin D given as a supplement over two years increased both total body bone mineral content and bone mineral density in older children” (Du et al 2004).

Why choose Puria Vitamin D Drops?
