Melcalin® Lupes

Melcalin Lupes is a food supplement made from fish oil and hop oil. Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA+DHA) contribute to the maintenance of normal cardiac function while the DHA helps to keep in good condition brain function and visual acuity. Hops promotes digestive function while vitamin E helps to protect cells from oxidative stress.

    Description

    Melcalin Lupes is a food supplement containing fish oil and hops; today’s diet leads to a large imbalance between the proportion of omega-6 and omega-3 entering, with a balance in favor of the former. Studies show that too high a value in omega 6 predispose to the risk of developing certain types of diseases (cardiovascular diseases, cancers, autoimmune diseases)10,11. That’s why Melcalin Lupes with its high content of omega-3 (over 80%) is a valuable aid to restore proper values of these essential fatty acids. The positive effects of Omega 3 fatty acids, whose protective action in the vascular system is known1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 are associated to the effects of hop oil (product of Humulus lupulus.) whose active ingredients (flavonoids) provide relief from some symptoms associated with menopause such as hot flushes and irritability13,14,15,16,17 in addition to assisting the anti-inflammatory activity12,18 deriving from the presence of a high concentration of DHA.
    Vitamin E has an antioxidant and a support action.
