TruBenefits® Omega
The only Omega-3 supplement backed by two of the largest randomized, double blinded, placebo controlled studies for joint and skin health.
TruBenefits® Omega
Omega-3s EPA and DHA are essential nutrients that mammals can’t make or store, so they must be consumed. Commercial pet foods often contain high levels of the pro-inflammatory omega-6 arachidonic acid (AA) and low levels of omega-3s, some with ratios as high as 20:1, which may lead to inflammation in many systems of the body. Since a large number of diseases have an inflammatory component and patients can often have an omega-6:omega-3 imbalance, supplementing with these potent, essential nutrients may help support healthy functioning of these systems as part of your care regimen.
TruBenefits® Omega supports healthy skin and coat, joint, cardiovascular, cognitive, eye, and overall health.

Why Recommend TruBenefits® Omega?
TruBenefits® Omega contains a potent 3:2 ratio of EPA to DHA in a bioavailable, triglyceride (TG) formulation to help support healthy anti-inflammatory functions in the body.
-
FORM
TruBenefits® Omega is in the more bioavailable Triglyceride (TG) form. Most companies produce their fish oil for dogs and cats in the less expensive ethyl ester form, requiring significantly higher doses of EPA and DHA to achieve the appropriate plasma or erythrocyte membrane levels.
-
SOURCE
TruBenefits® Omega contains oil from sustainably sourced pelagic fish (anchovy, mackerel, and sardines). These small, schooling fish do not have a life cycle long enough to bioaccumulate as many harmful heavy metals as other deep water fish (salmon, cod, etc).
-
SAFETY
Like all VRS products, TruBenefits® Omega is backed by rigorous, 3rd-party testing to ensure purity, quality and safety. All VRS products are manufactured in a world class cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practices) approved facility.
