No Fishy Tale. Why Fish Oil Is Not Quite Natural.

With high levels of the neurotoxin mercury and toxic PCBs in many fish species, millions have turned to “purified” fish oil as a source of essential fatty acids.
 
However, the molecular distillation process that helps remove mercury is the same process that renders fish oil from its natural form to one that is semi-synthetic, which research shows make it less likely to be absorbed in the body.
 
In their natural form, omega-3s in fish oil occur in the form of triglycerides. Yet most fish oil supplements are not in this form, but are in a form known as ethyl esters. To undergo molecular distillation, fish oil is first exposed to the solvent ethanol then the oil is heated under high vacuum, which concentrates the omega-3s to ethyl esters.
 
While this process removes some contaminants such as mercury, it leaves others behind. Recent ConsumerLab.com testing shows low levels of PCBs were found in almost ALL fish oil supplements.
 
Another fact gaining attention is that omega-3s in fish oil—primarily EPA and DHA—are not actually essential fatty acids. By definition, “essential” nutrients are those the body cannot make and must get from food. Our bodies can and do make EPA and DHA as needed so long as the foundational nutrition is provided through parent essential oils.
 
Parent essential oils are LA (linoleic acid) and ALA (alpha-linolenic acid). Flooding the body with derivatives (EPA and DHA) offers no benefits. Click here to view/download a report on parent essential oils by scientist Brian Peskin.
 
Unlike fish oil, plant-based oils provide the building blocks to help your body form omega-3s, including EPA and DHA, naturally. For natural essential fatty acids that your body can readily use, turn to healing plants, including borage, flax seed, pumpkin seed and coconut.
 
Wellspring’s formula of organic vegetarian oils provides a rich source of essential fatty acids from plants, combined with broad-spectrum whole food antioxidants, creating a unique blend to soothe joints and support heart health.*  


See what people are saying about Wellspring. “For a couple of years, one of my big toe joints has been stiff and painful when walking. After about a month on Wellspring the joint is much more flexible and the pain is gone.”
—Karin Granstrom, MD
 
 “After starting to use the Pure Body I felt more alert than I had for many years and so couldn’t wait to start using the Wellspring. My family has a history of diabetes and heart disease and at 60 years young I wanted to protect my joints as I started to become more active as a result of my feeling so good. Within a couple of weeks of taking just 2 Wellspring capsules a day, I noticed more natural oil to my scalp rather than dryness and a youthful bloom to my skin.”
—Sandra Nundy
 
“I have had a chronic knee problem for about 10 years. It's quite uncomfortable and limits a lot of activity, many exercises, dancing, playing tennis. I started on the Wellspring and within 2 weeks’ time, I could do anything I wanted with literally no pain. I now do high impact jazzercise 5 times a week and run up and down the 18 steps in our home about 25 or 30 times a day. Wellspring has been a miracle product for me.”
—Barbara Gitomer
 
“I am in my sixties and live in the north woods of Wisconsin. My driveway is about a quarter mile long. When the snow falls I have a snow blower to clear the drive way. Each time I go out I take Green Energy before and the oxygen level gives me all the endurance I need not only to complete the job but along with Wellspring I have no joint pain and feel good afterwards. The walk is about 1.75 mi. I love these products and my doctor’s reports are backing it up.”
—Robert Goetz
 
“At age 58 I wasn't about to let stiff and sore joints slow me down. I went to many specialists with little if any results and a very expensive bill! When I heard that Wellspring was to be released I couldn't wait for its arrival. When the package arrived I immediately tore the box open and took two of the capsules. Being the kind of person I am I took six capsules the first day and continued to take six per day for the first week. After three days I noticed my feet weren't as stiff and sore as usual. I am on my feet all day at my job and at the end of most days I just want to sit down and prop up my feet. The pain in my knees and hip was greatly reduced as well. After the first week I take two capsules daily. I have even been going back to the gym and my workouts have improved and are mostly pain free. Heck, I'm even running a mile three days a week before my workout. This stuff is awesome!!”
—Steve Kruse
 
“I build electrical panels and am often in tight places with my hands. Recently my hand slipped and I hit the back of it very hard on a sharp, hard object.  My hand swelled and became bruised very quickly. When I got home from work I immediately took 2 Wellspring. Within an hour the swelling was nearly gone and the bruise seemed to be lighter. I took 2 more Wellspring before bed and the next morning the spot was barely visible. Wellspring works well for inflammation!”
—Brian Smith
 
“I'm from Wisconsin and love to snowmobile. I was out for the first two days of snow this winter. I put on 225 miles. My wife asked me if I was sore after riding. I told her I have been riding for 40 years and always sore after the first days. Well, not this year! I told her it was from taking the Wellspring. I love it.  Thank you Touchstone!”
—Tom Klein
 
“About 3 years ago, I dislocated my ring finger on my right hand when trying to catch my son's falling laptop computer. I was able to get the finger back in place but my original size 6 had turned into a size 9! Not only did it hurt, it also meant that I could no longer wear some of my special rings. Doctor friends said that even when the pain and stiffness went away, it probably would not get much smaller than the size 9. This year after being on the suggested serving of Wellspring for 1 week, I tried on a ring at a Christmas bazaar to see how it looked. When I asked the size, I was shocked to learn that it was a 7! What a difference Wellspring has made!"
