OmegaRx versus EicoRx
Last Updated Aug 2007
Q: I have just changed over to the EicoRx from the OmegaRx. My last AA/EPA on eight
capsules of the OmegaRx was 2.14, but with a low GLA faction, 0.05, DGLA of 1.71.
I am wondering if I should stay on eight capsules (5 gms) a day on this formula, or
increase or decrease the number of capsules taken daily.

A: Dear Marilyn,
You should keep the EPA and DHA levels constant as that will continue to reduce the
pro-inflammatory eicosanoids, but the extra GLA and toasted sesame oil extract will
increase the body's innate anti-inflammatory actions. In other words, you will get
increased anti-aging benefits in addition to the reduction of silent inflammation.
