Dr Sears Zone™ Eico Rx™ contains the following ingredients: Fish Oil Concentrate, EPA, DHA, Glycerin, Purified Water, Toasted Sesame Oil Concentrate, Proprietary Antioxidant Blend (Soybean Oil, Natural Flavor, Tocopherols, Canola Oil, Citric Acid), GLA Concentrate and Caramel.

Upon reviewing Dr Sears Zone™ Eico Rx™, it became clear to us that it is very similar in function and content to Dr Sears Zone™ Omega Rx, another one of this developer’s Omega-3 Fatty Acid products. It contains the exact same amount of both EPA and DHA, two important Omega-3 Fatty Acids, but Dr Sears Zone™ Eico Rx™ also contains GLA, which is an Omega-6 Fatty Acid. GLA is included because it has been shown to be linked to obesity, and because some believe it may, perhaps, play a role in weight loss. In reality, GLA is in the initial stages of clinical studies where weight loss is concerned, and while the initial animal-based studies show promise, its abilities are still in the discovery stage.

Some early animal-based studies showed that in some cases obesity may be linked to low GLA levels and that supplementation may play a role in correcting this issue and normalizing metabolic function. However, it is not a magic bullet in this arena, and it does have some downsides. In fact, while some experts are genuinely excited about the value of Omega-6 Fatty Acids, others suggest that most people get enough from their daily diet.

Some experts also suggest that many people get too much Omega-6 Fatty Acids from their diet, and that they should actually consume less. This is in contrast with Omega-3 Fatty Acids, which they estimate 95% of Americans are deficient in. It is also suggested that too much Omega-6 Fatty Acids in the body can actually increase certain cardiac issues, such as strokes and heart attacks.

Clearly, there is a bit of controversy going on regarding the value of Omega-6 Fatty Acids, but there is no controversy where Omega-3 Fatty Acids are concerned. In fact, Omega-3 Fatty Acids have been studied in both animals and humans, and they have been found to be able augment health in both groups—so much so that some developers of pet supplements have started adding Omega-3 Fatty Acids into their products as well. These healthful fatty acids have been shown to be able to help the human body work more effectively, while preventing and easing a variety of conditions, such as cardiovascular diseases, arthritis, asthma, cancer, diabetes and lupus.

The Dr Sears Zone™ Eico Rx™ is clearly marketed toward consumers who are looking to increase weight loss and reduce inflammation. As noted above, it is very similar to Dr Sears’ Zone™ Omega Rx in terms of ingredients, which they readily admit, but they also suggest that these two products are designed to work together. Perhaps this is the case, but this makes the cost of increasing fatty acid levels excessive, and in many ways we believe it is over kill.

Many experts suggest that a single, high quality, pharmaceutical-grade Fish Oil supplement that contains at least 700 mgs of both EPA and DHA is enough to get health and weight loss back on track. That said, we do like that they are offering a 30-day money-back guarantee. However, we actually prefer supplements that offer 60-day money-back guarantees, because it often takes longer than 30 days to determine if a product is the best match for you.
