Venice, Fla. -- Omega3 Innovations recently learned that their Omega Cure liquid fish oil ranked the freshest in a Norwegian study that examined more than 100 brands of omega-3 fish oil products.
A large percentage of capsules and other fish oils studied contained rancid oil.
The physician-directed, Venice-based health-food company was excited to hear of the high ranking in a study published in the Norwegian health magazine, Vitenskap & Fornuft (“Science & Reason”), according to co-founder Dr. Bo Martinsen.
“We are extremely proud of the results,” Martinsen said, adding that the findings showed Omega Cure’s freshness was attributed to it having one-hundredth the oxidation levels of other leading omega-3 products.
"With the results of this study, we can see why our oil makes such a big difference."

The study examined more than 100 brands of omega-3 marine-sourced products, including capsules and liquid fish oils. Martinsen said that more than half of the products initially selected were excluded because they contained too many added ingredients to provide an accurate oxidation value, and 95 percent of the remaining 56 products didn’t meet industry standards.
Published in May, the report – which displayed a photograph of a bottle of Omega Cure – comes on the heels of other recently-released research that suggests consuming fresh fish oil is far more beneficial than consuming older or even rancid fish oils, and that taking the latter may even be harmful.
The paper’s author – Johnny Laupsa-Borge – explained the findings in Vitenskap & Fornuft, adding that while no long-term studies analyzing the effects of consuming rancid marine oil have been done, animals that consumed large doses of rancid plant oil in other studies showed an increase in liver fat and cell death in the animals’ stomachs.
“Many of our customers say they have experienced significantly more health benefits with Omega Cure than with their previous omega-3 supplements,” Martinsen said. “And, with the results of this study, we can see why our oil makes such a big difference.”
The oil used in Omega3 Innovations’ products – including the high-fiber Omega Cookie and the Omega Passion chocolate truffle – is fished off the coast of Norway and purified in small batches under cold temperatures with limited exposure to air and light, Martinsen said.
“As soon as it reaches our Venice production facility, it is bottled and shipped directly to the consumer, providing a minimal turn-around time from fish date to delivery,” he explained.
Dr. Anne-Marie Chalmers, fellow co-founder of Omega3 Innovations, says the findings also may explain why Omega-3 products’ heart-healthy benefits recently have been scrutinized in other studies, leading researchers to speculate that those contradictory results could be because participants were given rancid omega-3 fish oil products.
“While more than 10,000 studies have already shown that omega-3 can provide a multitude of health benefits, there is still much more to learn,” she says. “But we do know, you can’t go wrong with taking a super-fresh fish oil that is as close to Mother Nature as you can get.”
About Omega3 Innovations:
Founded by Bo Martinsen, M.D., and Anne-Marie Chalmers, M.D. – two physicians who have worked with omega-3 fish oil for more than 16 years – the company also offers several varieties of Omega Cookies, as well as Omega Cure supplements. Each cookie contains seven capsules worth of omega-3 fish oil, five grams of fiber, 200% of the daily value of vitamin D and 35% of calcium. The company was an innovation winner at the 2010 annual Economic Development Corporation of Sarasota County’s Hall of Fame awards and was nominated in this year’s young business category. Omega3 Innovations is the first to create a bakery product that contains an effective dose of omega-3 fish oil. For more information, visit http://www.omega3innovations.com.

Golden Bear Golf Course Reopens with Smoother, Faster Greens
Windermere, Fla. --- The Golden Bear Golf Club in Windermere has reopened its Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course at Keene's Pointe after major renovations.
Gene Garrote, president of Celebration Golf Management and Matthew Allen, director of golf at The Golden Bear Club at Keene's Pointe, said the 10-week project dressed the course with new smoother, faster greens to match the epic fairways that meander through old Florida forests and around lakes, ponds and wetlands.
Allen said all 18 greens at Golden Bear were replaced with Champions Bermuda Ultra Dwarf Turf, widely lauded for its fluid ball roll and quick speed.
Three practice greens at the Club’s practice facility were also replaced, Allen said.
The new greens offer putters a more accurate assessment of their golfing skills and powers of concentration.
“A slow green is like putting in water,” Garrote said. “Our new greens roll straight and true.”
Celebration Golf Management, Inc., which owns and operates The Golden Bear Club, hosted a private reopening of the golf course recently that drew more than 200 Golden Bear members and their families.
Allen said he’s particularly keen on one new feature: a new bulkhead around the peninsula green on the 15th hole. “It’s a very dramatic feature and it makes the Fifteenth a lot more interesting,” Allen said.
“All these improvements make a fabulous golf experience for our members,” Garrote said.

Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty Lists Exclusive 30 Acre Estate with Spectacular Historic View, Pet Pony
ORLANDO, Fla. --- Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty has been selected as exclusive sales and marketing agents for a 30-acre luxury estate in Lake Wales that features a spectacular view of historic Bok Tower and a pet pony.
Roger Soderstrom, founder and owner of Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty, said the luxury home, at 2410 Fox Run Court in Lake Wales, is priced at $795,000.
The 3,252 square foot luxury home was built in 2007 with four bedrooms and three baths, and boasts hardwood floors, custom cabinetry, granite countertops, stone wall detailing, stainless steel appliances, and a vaulted ceiling family room with a stone fireplace.
The luxury residence opens onto a screened and covered outdoor living area with a gas fireplace and a large freeform swimming pool with stone waterfall, Soderstrom added.
The property includes a barn and stable for up to five horses, fenced pastures that produce Pangola hay.
Chris Wilson, International Luxury Home Specialist at Stirling Sotheby’s Orlando/Dr. Phillips Marketing Center, is representing the property.
“The most spectacular feature of the home is its view of Bok Tower and Gardens,” Wilson said.
The National Historic Landmark was dedicated in 1929 as a gift from Dutch immigrant Edward Bok, a Pulitzer Prize-winning author and world peace advocate.
Wilson said the sale will include Goblin, a pony their children received as a Christmas gift.
“This is the only home that Goblin has ever known and it would be a shame to move the pony to new pastures,” Wilson said.

Mercantile Capital Corporation Zeros in on Major New Lending Market: Franchise Hotel, Restaurant Buyers
ORLANDO, Fla. — Mercantile Capital Corporation, which ranks as one of the leading providers of U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) 504 loans for small business owners, reports that fully one-fourth of its commercial loan closings since Jan. 1 have helped small businesses acquire, develop, or refinance franchise hotel or restaurant operations.
Chris Hurn, chief executive officer of Mercantile Capital Corporation, said the firm has closed on 68 commercial loans since Jan. 1 to finance projects worth more than $291 million in total project costs.
Seventeen of those loans were for acquisitions or refinances of commercial real estate for franchise operations, Hurn said, and 14 of those were for franchised hotels.
Altogether, commercial loans to franchise buyers accounted for 40 percent of Mercantile Capital’s loan volume during the first seven months of this year, Hurn said.
“Typically, franchise operations require a more rigorous standard of economic viability and promise a more reliable potential for economic success,” Hurn said.
“The increase in SBA 504 lending to buyers of franchise operations indicates significantly expanded awareness of the benefits of SBA 504 financing and refinancing among the small business entrepreneurs who are driving the nation’s economic recovery and we see this as a promising sign,” he added.

Seventeen of those loans were for acquisitions or refinances of commercial real estate for franchise operations, Hurn said, and 14 of those were for franchised hotels.
Altogether, commercial loans to franchise buyers accounted for 40 percent of Mercantile Capital’s loan volume during the first seven months of this year, Hurn said.
“Typically, franchise operations require a more rigorous standard of economic viability and promise a more reliable potential for economic success,” Hurn said.
