A recent double blind, randomized trial shows that pure ethyl-EPA
(PlusEPA®, made by Minami Nutrition) is as effective as fluoxetine
in the treatment of depression, and when used in combination
show even bet er outcomes.
Over an eight-week period, 60 outpatients with a diagnosis of major
depressive disorder were randomly al ocated to receive a daily dose
of either 1000 mg ethyl-EPA or 20 mg fluoxetine, or a combination of
PlusEPA and fluoxetine, and were assessed every two weeks.
Using the Hamilton Depression
Rating Scale (HDRS), the study showed
that fluoxetine and pure ethyl-EPA
appeared to be equally effective in

WHY BUY PLUSEPA® ?
When it comes to nutritional supplements, many people find that key ingredients for good health are omega-3 fats from fish oil. These compounds have been shown to lower the risk of heart disease by reducing triglycerides and inflammation, managing healthy cholesterol, as well as treating ADHD in kids and depression in adults. However, before you rush out to buy omega-3 supplements, it's important to remember that not all omega-3 supplements are created equal.
For example, Minami Nutrition's
supplements have the highest concentration of omega-3 fatty acids that is commercially available, so people only have to take one capsule per day to receive the benefits. Moreover if the fact that its products are the most pure on the market with undetectable levels of heavy metals is not enough, then the ability for the consumer to prove this, batch by batch, on our website has made fans even out of the most skeptical people. The supplements even tackle the age-old problem of "fishy" aftertaste by having unprecedented low levels of oxidization and high stability.
Additionally, while every fish oil supplement in the U.S. is manufactured using molecular distillation, Minami Nutrition oils are produced by "supercritical" CO distillation extraction process. The procedure uses
400 percent lower temperatures with no oxygen exposure, which maintains Omega-3 integrity so they can provide their full health benefit. In addition, this method ensures that there are no saturated fats—a far cry from 99 percent of fish oils sold in the U.S. that have unacceptable high levels of saturated fats which impede your body's ability to use Omega-3's. Minami Nutrition Omega supplements have received awards from ConsumerLab.com as the highest concentrated Omega-3 product as well as internationally for the being the "best tasting" fish oil.

The company's "green" attitude is shown
by the fact that it doesn't obtain fish from
over-fished waters—instead reeling them in
from sustainable oceans close to Antarctica.
The oils are not processed using by harsh
chemicals like hexane that could be hazard-
ous to the environment. And by using smaller
fish, such as mackerel and sardines, as well
as our unique process the level of possible
contaminants is significantly lowered. These
and other reasons have resulted in receipt of
the Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS) status, a very stringent European
Species is relatively abundant, and fishing/farming methods cause little
damage to habitat and other wildlife.
Species has a combination of problems such as overfishing, high bycatch,
and poor management, or farming methods have serious environmental impacts.
Minami Nutrition receives positive support from the leading figures in Omega-3
fatty acid and nutrition research by providing incredible quality and efficacious
fish oil supplements.
PLUSEPA®:
Super critical difference: all oils are processed
at 400% less heat than molecularly distilled
brands, with no oxygen exposure or use of harsh
solvents like hexane. this maintains the integrity
of omega-3 fats.
highest concentration: the highest concentrated as
95% omega-3 fatty acids on the market mean you
only need to take 1 gel cap, not 4 to 10 gel caps
per day or need to bother with the use of liquid
cod liver oils.
Unprecedented Purity: our omega-3's exceed
strict international standards for heavy metals,
PCB's, pesticides, dioxins. See www.morepa.com
for proof.
Formulation: optimal EPA:DHA ratios, no saturated
fat used as filler, encapsulated as gastro resistant
capsule for optimal absorption.
taste: No fishy after-taste, no added fruit flavors.
Small Environmental Footprint: only fish oil to
receive EMAS status, a very stringent European

Vol. 4/1, pp. 13–27 in Plant Ecology, © Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2001 Evolution and Ectomycorrhizas:their role in forest ecosystemsunder the impact of acidifying pollutants WSL Swiss Federal Research Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research, 8903 Birmensdorf,Switzerland; e-mail: [email protected] The physiologically active lateral rootlets of all main trees in temperate forests arecolonised by ectomycorrhizal fungi, forming so-called ectomycorrhizas. These symbi-otic organs are the sites of exchange of nutrients, mainly P and N, provided from thefungal partner, and C from the host. Emerging from the ectomycorrhizas, fungal hy-phae exploit the soil for the mobilisation and absorption of water and nutrient ele-ments. By doing so, they connect the tree roots intimately with the soil and provideanchorage. The deposition of acidifying pollutants into forest ecosystems is a poten-tial threat to the health and vitality of forest trees because it leads to the acidificationand eutrophication of forest soils. Pollutants are also a threat to the functioning of ec-tomycorrhizas. Increased N concentrations in the soil lead to enhanced fungal N up-take and storage, and to enhanced N transfer to the host plants, and therefore tohigher plant biomass of above ground parts. In consequence, there is a decrease of Callocation to the plant roots. This in turn leads to reduced ectomycorrhization, and toreduced production of external mycelia and fruiting bodies. Soil acidification leads toenhanced availability of Al, heavy metals, and radionuclides in the soil, all of whichcan be toxic to plants and fungi. Reduced growth of roots and hyphae are amongstthe first symptoms. In ectomycorrhizas, the hyphae of the fungal tissues contain vac-uolar polyphosphates which have the ability to bind Al, heavy metals, radionuclidesand N. These electronegative polymers of phosphates represent an effective storageand detoxifying mechanism which otherwise is lacking in roots. Therefore, ecto-mycorrhizas have the potential to increase the tolerance of trees to acidifying pollu-tants and to the increased availability in the soil of toxic elements.
