This is many times my raction towards people that think they knw it all. Not saying that I’m lways right, because that would automatically mke me one of them; but I'm sre you know what I mean. It is sad to see how jst something as simple as a thught; yet so powerful and profound at the sme time can derail someone to crsh in agony, pain, disease and sckness through out their entire lives.

Gd, Mother Nature, and Evolution whichever you dcide to call that Supreme power hve carefully placed everything you need wthin your reach. It is merely witing for your recognition of it in rder to be manifested.

I'm Jesse Ctto, I studied microbiology and have wrked for some renowned pharmaceutical companies (.e. Lilly, Amgen). In the past rcent years I’ve worked from Packaging Oprator to Environmental Quality Control Laboratory Anlyst.

I don't even take aspirin, bcause although these products might at frst look very attractive at the bginning. For me they are nothing mre than a Pandora box. Their pproach is more like a “fast-food typ” and you can’t deal like tht when we are talking about our halth. I mean, what happened to tht innate zest, that appetite for wsdom and life our ancestors lived by very single day? I believe everybody shuld really invest some time acquiring the ncessary knowledge to be truly capable of mproving their quality of life. Like you are ding right know.

I don't trust or believe in the wys the pharmaceutical giants approach our halth. They just give you a tcket for a never ending journey nvolving very high risks along the wy. On top of that everyone is plying a roll in the play mking you believe that there’s no way ut. Just like in the movie cting Jim Carrey called the Truman Shw. In reality, it is up to you to mke the decision to get out of tht nightmare, and begin to create the fture you’ve always dreamed of.

These gants create huge and very effective mrketing campaigns yet without knowing all the ptential side effects also included in wht they’re offering as a mere slution. Many times taking advantage of the nlearned community of people in need. Ths community of people that solely rly on the companies’ marketing campaigns as if thy were done in an arbitrary fshion. Some of them don’t even knw how to distinguish between an nfomercial and the 6 o’ clock nws. They erroneously believe the purpose of the FDA is bing their guardian angel. These have bing the ones that have approved very drug as safe and just a cuple of months later these same drgs have to be retired from the mrket or labeled as “black box”, thir “swim at your own risk” shrk crowded beach sign. Funny, how ven today you hear people repeat the qestion: “Is it FDA approved?” Revealing in tht question the whole criteria they’re sing before consuming a drug.

We lways have to keep in mind tht this companies move an immense mounts of money. They are one of the mst influential and lucrative companies in the conomy of this world. They do knw how to move the monkeys round to get what they want. Thy have all the bases loaded. Tht includes scientists, researchers, medical propagandist, dctors, journalists, up to government officials, tc. I’m not talking about any phrmaceutical company in particular, neither about thse that I’ve had the privilege of wrking with. This is just a prsonal opinion that I feel very strngly about. Also it is fair to mntion that I admire their level of rganization, procedures, the continual education they ffer their employees, benefits; their systems of wrks for me are like no ther.

As the oriental medicine knows dseases don’t just happen and you cn’t cover the sun with the plm of your hand, you cannot radicate the disease simply by covering the end rsult effect. You have to attack the prblem in its roots. Not just trn off the fire alarm the let the whle building succumb in flames.

In the pst years an exceptional researcher called Pul Ridker found out that inflammation is the nderlying cause of many of these dseases. In 2004 Time magazine selected him as one out of a 100 wrld’s most influential people. Because he was rsponsible for finding the surprising link btween inflammation and heart disease, Alzheimer’s, rhumatoid arthritis, asthma and many others dseases.

It is clear that the nflammation response is the mechanism of dfense of our bodies so you mght ask…; If the body is producing this inflammation to help heal an injury or external invasion why does it do it in such a fashion that would ultimately damage our tissues in such an unfavorable fashion? This inflammation response because of our diets reacts in an unbalanced way. Resulting the majority of times in tissues never again recuperate as they once were before the inflammation occurs. They remain debilitated unless you tap into some uncommon resources. Often times the only pathway, the only stream that people have in their mindsets to receive help regarding their health issues is thru pharmaceutical companies. They’ve very much likely deafened their ears for other paths that can lead them to a place where they’ve never been before concerning Health.

This negative effect of inflammation is due to an imbalance in the correct source and amount of the before mentioned Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids. Our body is starving for the polyunsaturated fatty acid known as Omega 3. This lack has been the fertilizer for the ground of diseases. If we lack essential fats our body falls apart.

Why Omega 3 and not Omega 6?; Why the Omega 3? Because our American diet does not favors the Omega 3 (anti-inflammatory) favors the Omega 6s (pro-inflammatory), which is mostly found in vegetable, corn and canola oils we consume more often.

Clean and simple our American diet does not favor the Omega 3 fatty acid. Let ask ourselves a simple question. When our kids ask for a happy meal… are they expecting fish? That would be instead a sad meal. They would start crying right there I can almost hear them already.

Can we create balance if we to consume Omega 3 rich food sources? Yes it is possible; but that involves a complete change of life style. A more convenient way would be to supplement.

What differentiates the Omega 3s from the Omega 6s? They differentiate basically in its molecular structure. The first act as an anti-inflammatory, the second is pro inflammatory. We used to have a consumption ratio of 1:1; but because of the adverse changes in our diet, mainly due to commercialization and the fast paced stressful lives we are living these days. Today this ratio is way off balanced, nearly 1:10 respectively. That explains why when our body triggers the inflammation response it goes awry; what was once intended to defend and help us overcome the event ironically leaves us with severe pain suffering and debilitation.

As the cover of the February 23, 2004 Times magazine called this inflammatory reaction "The Silent Killer" . Now, wisely enough most of the medical research is focused in inflammation. Thank God and the universe for that revelation.

I've seen the faith that so many elders (and everyday younger people) have in the pharmaceutical companies and it’s very disappointing. Knowing deception is just around the corner waiting to say hi and hop on their back. Seen how people believe so blindly in doctor's prescription angers me. Sometimes they don't even bother to ask, anything about substance they are going to add into their bodies. They just take the Nike slogan to their chest. And there it goes!..Just Gulp It! That's it! They even create military diligence in their Habit!!! Being that the main reason why they didn't live a healthy life in the first place. Of course is not the same when you've got no more options you may say. But it’s simply lack of will, character, focus and determination power.

Now let me take you to a trip to a country often called “A Happy Country" a “Contented Land” and that is New Zealand. Now do you think it just a coincidence people are call it like that? I don’t think so, there is a reason. Researcher have discover that Omega 3 can also help people with depression and behavior problems it lifts up mood and can even be beneficial to children or adults with ADD or ADHD . At the end of this article I’ll share with the best Omega 3 for depression. The reason this country is called like that is because this people consume it every single day.

The habitants that lived there before colonization which actually took place about 150 years ago were called the Maoris. This people eat a large amount of fat compared to the recent low fat American. By the way, after the low fat diet became the #1 health theme in the media the obesity rate has increased twice or more of what it used to be. Now isn't that a hint we are doing something wrong? We need fat. In fact we need fat to lose fat. But the ones I mentioned earlier the Omega 3 fat. Their benefits are too many to mention here. I personally believe that even baldness is the result of lacking the essential oils. We just need the right type of fats, and in the right amounts, from of course the best source possible.

Contrary to the popular common trend, we all need some FAT in our diets. As you know all fats are not created equal. There are two kinds- saturated fats and unsaturated fats. The latter being the ones our body craves desperately the most. The reason this oils are called essential is because there is no possible way your body can manufacture them. Therefore we need to supplement these essential fatty acids.

Yesterday the trend was cod liver oil, fish oil reinforced with A & D and the whole alphabet. What is the potential downside for using this source? The contamination factor, our waters are becoming every day more and more polluted. Inevitably this fishes are mercury, lead and other contaminants carriers. Because they’ve gather little by little all this pollutants from other contaminated fish down in the food chain. Plus they don’t supply the right amount your body needs or are presented many times in ways your body can’t really absorb. Beware of some concentrated Omega 3s products out there. Due to the outstanding benefits of the Omega 3 many companies in an attempt to create a concentrated formula doesn’t mention that they are just precursors your body have to convert it to Omega 3 leaving your body with a tremendous task to accomplish and thus receiving an incredibly lower absorption. Many people have reported risky side effects when taking this product.

We need to acquire the knowledge also by being open to listen and try new and uncommon things. We should all filter the information and make a personal analysis of the things that are presented to us. This marine lipid sources, the cod liver oil, salmon and other fish oils have been around for decades. They’ve become more famous in America than in any other country because our consumption of fish in our diets is very low. We tend to lean more for foods that make our taste buds scream of ecstasies; and clearly fish is not among the Food Networks’ top 10 most urging flavors.

Ancient scriptures records Jesus eating fish in various occasions even after his resurrection. But times have changed; a fish back then was much more nutritious than the ones we can get today at the local supermarket. Our soils today are depleted of necessary vitamins and minerals. We need to be careful of what we are putting on our tables and ultimately in our bodies if we really want to live a healthier life.

Now the trend is based in a plnt source, the flaxseed oil . Stay tuned in E! And watch it getting down a Hummer Limo walking down the red carpet. (Camera clicks sounds) Flash!! The flaxseed oil supplies precursor of Omega 3. Now you would’ve to drink lots of flaxseed oil to get the right amounts of Omega 3 from a plant source. Flaxseed oil doesn’t supply the amounts of EPA or DHA needed. DHA and EPA are molecules that prevent blood from clotting and stickiness of the platelets. The Omega 3 precursor abundantly supplied by the flaxseed oil is called ALA . The problem that arises by taking precursors and not the Omega 3 itself is that your body can only convert limited amounts of ALA into Omega 3s we need. So that said it is not my option as essential fatty acid source. Besides that it is a fact that animal sources of Omega 3s are far richer than plant sources like flaxseed. So yes, there is a better source than flaxseed oil to supplement your Omega 3.

Back to the Maoris . Researchers began to wonder what this people were doing different to us. Well, guess what they found out? They were very common people but they did found a clear cut difference and that was their diet. Something you don't have to be a researcher to know; but of course these words are deeper than the simple we are what we eat cliché.

The researchers noticed they eat a very large percentage of fat.

They were receiving their fat from a different source from New Zealand’s magic seas…Splash!! Behold the green lipped mussels (perna canaliculus in latin). Let me leave something clear from the beginning Shreck has nothing to do with the green lipped mussel. The Question now is: How can I get my hands on some of that here in America?!

Suddenly someone speaks ups and says:

- "Is that what the new franchise next to WhiteCastle is about?!

Another one says: Oh..I told you I knew it, I knew it, I knew it! That's what I had for dinner in NY, City Island!

-No, No, No Mamita!

– No?! you say ..They are not in our fast food yet..Damn!

I believe they never will. You are never going to hear a “Have you tasted a Combo#2 of Mussel King is delicious! Do you want one!

-Mine without pickles please. Yeah here you can have it Your Way! RIGHT?!”

The green lipped mussel grows in the pristine waters of New Zealand of the most pure waters today on earth, well…actually in the universe (NASA haven’t found water in Mars yet, right?) This people actually eat these mussels raw, a nature made Omega 3. Can you see the difference in our gulps? They eat green lipped mussel and we eat the new drug cocktail. We want their harvest, but we are not planting the same seed. We don’t like the stats we are seeing; but those are the real facts. Something I found very funny that…If one of us “the civilized ones” cross path with one of this Maoris they’ll burst in laughter and would think they just popped out of the TV screen while you were watching the Flintstones cartoons. But in them lies the wisdom that could save hundreds of millions of lives without the need to understand and research the chemistry of the Omega 3.

This is the best source of the Omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acid. There is no other plant or marine life in the face of the planet. Millions of dollars have been invested in research on the effectiveness of this fatty acid compound which undoubtedly places this chain of omega fatty acids as the most potent natural anti-inflammatory in the world. They also discovered that various blends of omega fatty acids when mixed with green lipped mussel (perna canaliculus) oil extract could either increase or decrease its effectiveness. After years of preliminary work they developed a combination of oils and green lipped mussel (perna canaliculus) extract oil were used to give birth to the pharmaceutical grade omega 3 fatty acid complex known as OmegaXL.

Due to a patented extraction process and the significant trade secret of how the oils are uniquely blended, OmegaXL is second to none and much stronger than any other essential fatty acid available. It has a tremendous potency for those disorders that have an inflammatory component. Scientists believe that the function of these fatty acids stops inflammation at its root. While receiving all the benefits Omega-3 offers.

What are the side effects with OmegaXL?

OmegaXL has 'NO' known negative side effects. All the proteins have been removed which is the main player in allergic reactions.

Some of the diseases or conditions having an inflammatory component are:

• Alzheimer’s
• Anxiety
• Arthritis
• Asthma
• Bursitis
• Crohn's Disease
• Depression
• Diabetes
• Eczema
• Fatigue
• Gout
• Heart Disease
• High Cholesterol
• High Blood Pressure
• Stroke
• Hypertension
• Lupus
• Menstrual Pain
• Multiple Sclerosis
• Obesity/Overweight
• Periodontal Disease
• Psoriasis
• Reynaud’s Disease
• Rheumatoid Arthritis

You can watch an interesting infomercial video so that you can make an analysis and filter all the information in www.youtube.com/greathealthworks there you can make comments on the videos or contact me at jessecotto@hotmail.com if you have any questions or any other comment and I'll be very glad to help.

Is this safe for women in pregnancy? This Omega 3 is safe for children to take. I believe there are more risks by not taking it because babies needs Omega 3 in order to develop a healthy brain (60% fat), eyes (mostly fat), nervous system, hair, skin among other benefits. Of course don’t just take my word for it. It is always a good practice to consult your physician before taking any product; the point is always to make a right decision.

If you are open and ready to do something you have never done in order to get something you have never had. I will rejoice with you.

If you share my passion for health and freedom like I do. You also have the opportunity to be one of the few that like me are in the Great Health Works sharing the Good News.
