Why Time Magazine Calls Inflammation “The Silent Killer”
Dr. Jonny Bowden has said, "The standard American diet... causes inflammation due to its excess levels of sugars, grains, omega-6 fatty acids, and low levels of omega-3 fatty acids." The ratio of bad fats to good fats in the Western diet is 15:1, when it should be 1:1. This imbalance is a cause of inflammatory diseases. If your joints are inflamed, you may also have chronic inflammation that is causing damage to other parts of your body that you cannot see or feel. Inflammation reduces your odds of a long life, as if you were breathing an invisible poison gas. This is why Time Magazine calls inflammation "The Silent Killer."
Finally, For The Millions Who Can’t Stand Fish Oil
Fish oil comes from fish fat, and fat is where toxins and poisons are stored. So when you eat fish oil you are also eating the harmful stuff. Scientists at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Institute in Seattle linked taking high-doses of fish oil to a 43% increased risk for prostate cancer overall & a 71% increased risk for aggressive prostate cancer.

Does Qwell™ contain any fish oil or krill oil?
Absolutely not! All of The Veggie Doctor products are vegan
Does Qwell™ contain Carrageenan or other harmful substances?
Great question! Thanks to feedback from customers like you we have made some major changes to our formulation and eliminated harmful substances, such as Carrageenan, Rice Bran Oil (high in Omega 6), Artificial Sweeteners (Sorbitol, Glycerin) and Artificial Colors, which are commonly found in other products! We have also switched to a one piece, easily digestible softgel.
What if I get an after burp or sensitive oil based supplements?
As much as we have tried to create the perfect balance of ingredients, some are still sensitive to oils of any type, including algae oil, so I do have a few recommendations that may help reduce or eliminate the 'algae' burps or click here [link to helpful hints video] to watch our video with helpful hints ...
1. If you are sensitive to oils, start with 1 capsule per day with a meal and work up to 2 capsules per day. This worked for most.
2. If your body responds well, take a Qwell™ softgel with a meal in split doses, one in the morning and one at lunch. Those that are sensitive to oil based supplements have been able to take Qwell™ with meals and get very little to no 'after burp'. If you take Qwell™ with food, your body will absorb it better, as your digestive system is turned on to digest the wide variety of nutrients, such as protein, carbohydrates and fats, in your meal.
3. If that helps, but you are still getting an 'after burp', it’s best to eat something, then take your capsule, then eat a little more in order to 'sandwich' your pill between layers of food.
4. Lastly, many customers have stated that refrigerating the capsules helps cut down the burping, so I just keep my bottle in the fridge.
How is the algae oil in Qwell™ Extracted?
There are several ways that algal oil is extracted, but the most common are hexane and water extraction. Hexane is a chemical commonly extracted from petroleum and crude oil. It is a colorless liquid that gives off a subtle, gasoline-like odor. It is commonly used when extracting algal oil, because it is quicker and cheaper to extract the oil. The hexane is then removed. Unlike our competitors, The Veggie Doctor™ has opted to extract our algal oil using the WATER EXTRACTION METHOD, because we can extract the algal oil without any solvents or external enzymes. This keeps our algal oil pure and clean.
How many Qwell™ softgels should I take?
The general consensus is that we should be taking about 500 – 1000mg of Omega-3’s daily for general health if we eat a healthy, well balanced diet. This would be 2 softgels per day (820mg of Omega’3’s). Unfortunately, the western diet is not very balanced and very high in omega-6’s such as processed seed and vegetable oils, which can increase inflammation and could contribute to a higher risk of many chronic diseases. The proper ratio for omega-3:omega-6 is 1:4. A typical westernized diet has a ratio of 1:16, almost 4x higher than the recommended ratio! Following are some recommendations established by The Global Organization for EPA & DHA Omega-3’s (GOED).
500mg’s: For the general healthy adult population, in order to lower the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD)
700 – 1000mg’s: For pregnancy/lactation
>1g: Higher intakes are supported for a range of additional health conditions (ie: blood pressure, triglycerides).
If you feel that your ratio is skewed towards Omega-6’s (pro-inflammatory Omega’s) than increasing the dosage to 3 or 4 softgels/day may be beneficial.
You spoke and we listened! We are making the change to Methylfolate.
At The Veggie Doctor™ we pride ourselves at listening to our customers and we are making the change to Methlyfolate in place of Folic Acid (synthetic B9). We are happy to say that moving forward any of our products containing Folic Acid will be replaced with Methylfolate starting with Luxor™ Vegan Collagen.
Why is Folic Acid in most multivitamins?
In one word: COST! Unfortunately, many supplement companies make their products with the least expensive forms of vitamins in mind. Folic Acid is much cheaper that the active form Methylfolate. Methylfolate will now be used in our products at no extra cost to you.
What is Methylfolate?
Folate or Folic Acid is Vitamin B9. Folic Acid is the synthetic form of Folate. The body does not produce Folate, so Folic Acid is used to fortify foods or taken through our supplements, but it has been found that certain genetic mutations cannot convert Folic Acid to Folate. Methylfolate is the more natural and active form of Folate that can be more easily synthesized.
Why did we make the change to Methylfolate?
The MTHFR enzyme is found throughout the body and it converts folic acid or folate in its active form L-methylfolate. Methylfolate plays an active role in producing red blood cells, DNA biosynthesis, maintaining DNA, supporting immune function and energy production. It also aids in the production of neurotransmitters in your brain, such as serotonin, dopamine and epinephrine. Because of this, Methylfolate is best for people with MTHFR mutation.
The MTHFR mutation is very common and up to 60 percent of people may have at least one genetic mutation in their MTHFR gene. This gene provides instructions to your body to make an enzyme that converts folic acid into the active form L-methylfolate. If you have two genetic mutations in your MTHFR gene, your ability to convert Folic Acid into the active form is reduced by an estimated 70 percent. Women with this genetic mutation may have an increased risk of migraines. Infertility and neural tube defects during pregnancy.
Methylfolate requires less conversions and can start working right away. Methylfolate is already in its’ active form and does not need the MTHFR enzyme and can start working right away. Folic Acid requires four conversions and is highly dependent on individual genetics and other nutrients for an effective conversion.
