UnoCardio 1000 has been the best-rated omega-3 in the US for years

Jo Wyckmans from Kontich in Belgium is seventy-four but he is not yet in the mood for a well-deserved rest. In 2014 he started producing nutritional supplements again.

Today he sells them from America to South Korea.

UnoCardio 1000 best and purest omega-3 in America

In fact, his product UnoCardio 1000 , a supplement with omega-3 fatty acids based on fish oil, has been declared a best and purest on the entire market .

Labdoor is an independent, but commercial laboratory that tests supplements and vitamins and reports about them on its website and that also sells these products itself. They do say that the test results are separate from sales and Labdoor has a solid reputation.

The award is special. There are a total of 85,000 nutritional supplements on the market in the US and many of them are omega-3 products.

“That's right, Americans use these products much more than we do,” says Jo Wyckmans. “It is exceptional that a non-American product scores so high and it is especially fantastic that we the number 1 position have occupied for years. It is our passion to continuously work on product improvement and to offer our customers only the best of the best that leads to this great result.”

The importance of omega-3 supplements

Critics say that those who eat a normal, balanced diet do not need nutritional supplements.

“But who eats enough fruit and oily fish three times a week? How much time do families have to ensure everyone eats healthy every day? The intake of sufficient omega-3 fatty acids is very important for our health, that is for sure. We have had our own research conducted among several thousand Belgians and Dutch people. To be at the right level, you must have at least 8 percent omega-3 fatty acids in the wall of the cells in your body. For most this was below 4 percent. Then you cannot do without omega-3 supplementation.”

Omega-3 is said to be beneficial, with more or less scientific evidence, for a whole lot of things, including cholesterol, heart and blood vessels, good eyesight and depression. “American research on soldiers with depression showed that they had extremely low omega-3 levels in the brain, which they could supplement by omega-3 supplementation. But be careful, omega-3 is not a medicine. It is something you take preventively, to stay healthy and support your immunity.”

Know what you are taking

It is important that the omega-3 supplement you choose is of good quality. Labdoor helps consumers make a good choice. She analyzes products and looks at, among other things:

• Is the label reliable? Does the product contain what it says on the label?
• Does the product not contain contaminants such as heavy metals and PCBs in the case of fish oil?
• Is the product safe? Does it not contain active ingredients at too high levels or dangerous additives?
• Does the product work? Contains the sufficient active ingredient and in one for the body easily absorbable form ?

The future

Jo Wyckmans is satisfied with the growth and future prospects of WHC.

“We are growing fast. Within the Benelux we are highest purity and highest dose per softgel the leading omega-3 for doctors and therapists for years. In America we have to work hard to keep up with the growth of UnoCardio 1000. And in South Korea, with 50 million inhabitants who are often very concerned about healthy eating and use a lot of fish oil, we received a special mention in a trade magazine for pharmacists and we are growing well. And we are now also in a good position in the market in China.”

We are also working hard on the product range.

“In addition, our product range is also growing steadily.
