Could this be the most exciting breakthrough in heart health so far this century?

Is 7 the new 3?

For years, we’ve all heard the mantra that omega-3s are good for your heart. So good, in fact, that Big Pharma even got in the picture to make a prescription-only version.

Now don’t get me wrong. Omega-3s have a ton of health benefits.

But now there’s a new heart health breakthrough that’s about to become huge news.

Yes…thanks to Dr. Michael Roizen, the medical community is finally waking up to the significant benefits of purified omega-7.

The future is here

Does Dr. Roizen’s name ring a bell? He’s the Chief Wellness Officer at the Cleveland Clinic and the one of the brains behind Real Age Inc. But let’s be honest, if you know him, it’s probably from his show on the Discovery Health Channel.

Regardless, he’s a leading voice in how to get healthy — and stay healthy. And he’s leading the charge to give purified omega-7 its due.

And just look at these great reasons why…

The purified palmitoleic acid in omega-7:

1) Curbs inflammation. As I’ve told you before, chronic inflammation is like the gasoline that fuels so many diseases, such as atherosclerosis (artery blockage).

2) Helps reduce insulin resistance, lowering risk of type 2 diabetes.

3) Helps prevent fatty liver — often called a “silent killer” because it doesn’t cause any symptoms, but can lead to liver cancer and heart disease.

4) Lowers C-reactive protein (CRP), reducing risk of heart attack and stroke.

That’s a remarkable list of benefits. And a bonus: Researchers believe that omega-7 also signals your body to stop storing unnecessary fat.

Unfortunately, you can’t possibly get therapeutic levels of omega-7 through diet alone.

But just imagine a single supplement that could help keep your heart, blood sugar, and weight all healthy.

Dr. Roizen says that for most people, 210 mg of omega-7 daily will have “substantial and important benefits.” But he himself takes double that amount every day. He’s seen the evidence that benefits increase at the higher dosage.
