Omega3 Innovations Announces Fish Oil Secret: Celebrities and CEOs Drink Their Omega-3 Supplements

Venice, Fla. -- Since Jennifer Aniston gave an unsolicited endorsement of Omega Cure liquid fish oil to InStyle Magazine, Omega3 Innovations has seen a dramatic increase in the number of celebrities and high-powered professionals ordering their product. But what has the affluent and powerful drinking their omega-3 fish oil? Omega3 Innovations explains. Have you noticed that some celebrities and high-profile industry leaders look younger and have more energy than they should at their age? What’s their secret? The answer might surprise you. Many stars and high-power professionals are turning to fish oil supplements to help them maintain their sharp wit and vigor. But, they’re not using traditional omega -3 capsules. Instead, they’re putting their fish oil faith in a liquid version - namely the Omega Cure. Omega3 Innovations, the producers of Omega Cure, noticed an increase in orders from prestigious addresses after an unsolicited endorsement from actress Jennifer Aniston appeared earlier this year in InStyle Magazine. “We always knew that we had an esteemed clientele,” says Omega3 Innovations co-founder, Anne-Marie Chalmers, MD. “But, after Jennifer Aniston mentioned that she took our oil in an interview with InStyle Magazine in March, we noticed a significant increase in orders from wealthy producers, celebrities and high-profile CEOs.” Since then, the company has seen a 50 percent increase in orders shipped to New York City addresses. Of those orders, the highest concentration comes from the affluent Upper East Side zip codes. While celebrity endorsements can help raise a company’s profile and sales, Omega3 Innovations attributes the growing customer base of celebrities and C-level executives to the product’s freshness and hefty omega-3 dose. “Omega Cure is the Rolls-Royce of fish oil,” says Dr. Chalmers. “Our oil is significantly fresher than what’s found in capsules, so it’s no surprise that our customers are upgrading to Omega Cure. And they are experiencing the difference as a result.” One of United States’s top orthopedic surgeons agrees. “The benefits of taking fresh omega-3 fish oil are clear,” says Sarasota-based Dr. William Kennedy. “It helps with joints, it helps with the cardiovascular system, and much more. By adding Omega Cure in adequate amounts of 2,000 – 3,000 mg of EPA/DHA per day to a patient’s arthritis medication, we have heard much positive feedback. Arthritic pain complaints have gone down, and we have seen other benefits with our patients as well. Some even report a reduction in their bad cholesterol,” he said. Omega-3 Innovations co-founder Bo Martinsen, MD, is not surprised that celebrities and CEOs are choosing Omega Cure. His succinct answer for the attraction: “It works.” 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 offers several varieties of Omega Cookies, Omega Passion chocolates, 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.
