Fish oil to benefit consumers

MANILA, Philippines - Leading pharmaceutical company Sanofi-Aventis Philippines introduces a new dietary supplement, Cenovis Fish Oil, an all-natural supplement that contains the rich, concentrated goodness of Omega 3 DHA & EPA essential fatty acids that have numerous beneficial effects on the body, from helping maintain brain health and good skin to its anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties.

According to Cenovis brand manager Myrna Lim, Sanofi-Aventis intends to promote the benefits of fish oil to as many Filipinos as possible. “Filipinos are generally fish eaters but it is hard to obtain the adequate beneficial amounts of Omega 3 by eating fish alone, due to our usual ways of preparation,” she said.

Our bodies cannot produce these essential fatty acids which have to be taken from external sources, and the primary way we can obtain concentrated amounts of Omega 3 DHA & EPA is by ingesting fish oil.

With Cenovis, we have managed to pack the health-giving goodness of fish oil in terms of three important considerations, namely health benefits, taste and price,” she continued. Sanofi-Aventis said that Cenovis Fish Oil with marine cardio protectors undergoes a thorough and unique process of extraction and distillation in Norway to come up with only the purest, most refined and most potent product.

The proof lies in its completely odorless quality and absence of fishy aftertaste. The company uses only small species of fish like anchovies, mackerel, and sardines, which are among the riches and cleanest sources of DHA and EPA in Omega 3.

Cenovis Fish Oil, an Australian brand, comes in packs of either six or 60 capsules. At just less than P10 per capsule, this new product gives more Filipinos the chance to include the benefits of fish oil supplementation to their healthy lifestyle.

The product is now available in all leading drug stores nationwide.
