Do something good for your heart and body—take Phytomega. This patent-pending dietarysupplement combines plant-based phytosterols

with omega-3 fatty acids and other proprietary ingredientsto reduce total cholesterol levels and maintain healthytriglyceride levels.

Phytosterols: Mimicking the Cholesterol MoleculeThe main ingredients in Phytomega—phytosterols—are plant-derived molecules that resemble cholesterol. Asthe cover illustration shows, phytosterols and cholesterolare so chemically similar that your body can’t tell thedifference. The illustration below shows dietary cholesterol(from the foods you eat) and biliary cholesterol (producedby your liver) passing through your digestive tract.Because Phytomega’s phytosterols mimic cholesterol, theyinterfere with the absorption of cholesterol—so your bodyabsorbs less cholesterol in the bloodstream. As Phytomegareplaces cholesterol, the cholesterol passes out of yourbody as waste.

Because of their ability to interfere with both dietarycholesterol and the cholesterol produced by your body,the phytosterols in Phytomega lower total cholesterollevels—especially LDL (“bad”) cholesterol levels. By lowering these levels, Phytomega helps reduce your riskof heart disease. Clinical studies conducted over the lastfew decades have shown that daily intake of phytosterolscan significantly lower cholesterol measurements.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids: The Fat That’s Good for You1

Omega-3 fatty acids are a form of polyunsaturated fat—a “good” fat. Omega-3s are found primarily in cold-waterfish and they are essential for good health. However, yourbody cannot make omega-3s on its own. They must be

obtained in your diet.In the 1970s, scientists

made one of the firstconnections between omega-3fatty acids and human healthwhile studying the Inuit(Eskimo) people of Greenland.As a group, Inuits suffer farless coronary heart disease thanEuropeans. Yet the Inuit diet,which consists of eating whale,seal, and salmon, is very highin fat. Eventually, researchersrealized all these foods are richin omega-3 fatty acids—whichwere giving the Inuits naturalcardiovascular protection.

Phytomega contains fish oilwith two key omega-3 fattyacids—standardizedeicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)and docosahexaenoic acid(DHA). Together, these long-chain omega-3s helpmaintain healthy triglyceride levels in your body.Triglycerides are a group of fatty compounds that circulatein the blood and are stored in your body’s fat tissue.Research shows that people with elevated triglyceride levelsare more at risk of developing heart disease.

A Patent-Pending Formula ThatComplements PROVEXCVPhytomega is truly in a class by itself. No other producthas phytosterols in an omega-3 fatty acid matrix toenhance the delivery of the phytosterols in your body.
