Metagenics – SPM Active 120 softgels

Metagenics SPM Active Fish Oil

SPM Active^® is a revolutionary product by Metagenics. It contains 18-hydroxy-eicosapentaenoic acid (18-HEPE) and 17-hydroxy-docosahexaenoic acid (17-HDHA), which are metabolites, or products of the metabolism of EPA and DHA. To break this down even simpler, when you consume fish oil, which contains EPA and DHA, your body breaks it down into smaller components. Some of these components are 18-HEPE and 17-HDHA, which have very powerful anti-inflammatory and healing actions in the body.

What Is SPM?

SPM stands for “Specialized Pro-resolving Mediators”. SPMs are recently discovered cell signaling molecules that are derived from fish oil. What makes SPMs so valuable is that they are essentially much more active in performing beneficial effects in the body. Also, they are more easily turned into other very active chemicals (other types of SPMs) in the body.

Decrease Inflammation With Metagenics SPM Active Supplement

The SPMs in SPM Active have been shown repeatedly in research studies to decrease inflammation, help fight off infection, aid in tissue regeneration and have even been used as a treatment for melanoma. It’s been used for cardiac tissue regeneration in mice after heart damage (think after a heart attack) and to quote one study “Our results indicate that 18-HEPE is a potential anticancer metabolite that mediates, at least in part, the preventive effect of n-3 PUFA on melanoma metastasis.” SPMs are one of the most exciting nutritional discoveries of recent times. Because uncontrolled inflammation is a key factor in many chronic diseases, a safe and natural product like SPM Active becomes of vital importance. SPM Active is like a new super-form of fish oil.
