Paladin Labs Inc., a leading Canadian specialty pharmaceutical company, today announced the launch of GELICIOUS!TM and GELMEG3TM, the first and only Omega 3 supplements in a tasty gel format, specifically designed for those among us who do not like to and/or cannot swallow pills. Both GELICIOUS!TM for kids and GELMEG3TM for adults contain Health Canada approved key levels of DHA (docosahexanoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) that previously could have proved difficult for non-fish eaters to ensure they consume as part of their normal daily nutritional intake. With these branded products Paladin is excited to extend its innovative approach from prescription and OTC products into the realm of nutritional supplements via the BioEnvelop® division. Both Gelicious!TM and GelMeg3TM are not only unique given their creamy orange texture, but both brands are truly satisfying a unique need in the marketplace as research indicates that at least 40% of adults have issues with swallowing pills. For the first time in Canada - a convenient Omega 3 daily supplement that tastes great at room temperature or cold. About Omega 3 The Omega 3 fatty acid is a form of highly polyunsaturated fat, one of the 'good' fats not naturally manufactured by the human body, is clinically proven to contribute to good health overall, with specific links to brain function, cognitive skills and heart health. Defined as 'essential' to good human health, the two key long chain forms of Omega 3, DHA and EPA, are primarily derived from cold water fish and frequently recommended as supplements to diets low in fish consumption. About GELICIOUS!TM for Kids Gelicious!TM is specifically formulated to help support the development of the brain, eyes and nerves among school-aged children, 4-17, in addition to helping to support cognitive skills such as communication and reasoning. Each dose delivers a total of 650mg of DHA (229mg) and EPA (429mg) in a fun tube-like gel pack bursting with orange flavour, ready to be sucked on.

About GELMEG3TM for Adults GelMeg3TM contains 1000mg of DHA (343mg) and EPA (658mg), recognized by Health Canada as contributing to the maintenance of good cardiovascular health overall and specifically as an aid in lowering serum triglycerides. Although not as well known as cholesterol, the other lipid/fat present in our blood, high triglyceride levels are clinically proven to be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
