Living Under the Pressure of Modern Life
From the outside, the careers of an advertising writer and an art consultant may seem glamorous. But as Gökhan and Gözde share, the reality is often overwhelming — especially when combined with the chaotic rhythm of Istanbul.
Like many of their peers, they found themselves exhausted, stressed, and feeling stuck. “Everywhere I look in Istanbul, people dream of starting a new life. But very few actually take action,” says Gözde. “We were in that same place, until Omega-3 changed everything.”
The Turning Point: Realizing What Was Missing
Gökhan recalls looking in the mirror and feeling constantly drained. “I kept asking myself how anyone could withstand this kind of pace. Then we realized what we were lacking — Omega-3. Once we started supplementing, we began to feel stronger, more positive, and capable of keeping up with our demanding lives.”
Their journey didn’t start with supplements alone. The couple first reshaped their lifestyle — cooking at home, preparing their own yogurt, pickles, and even cheese. These changes brought joy and balance, but the real breakthrough came when they introduced the right Omega-3 into their daily routine.
Learning That Not All Fish Oils Are Equal
At first, Gökhan and Gözde thought eating fish once a week was enough. But as they researched, they discovered two key truths:
-
Not every fish provides sufficient EPA and DHA.
-
The quality of Omega-3 supplements varies dramatically.
They developed strict criteria for choosing the right supplement: EU and Turkey compliance, triglyceride form, clean cold-sea sourcing, high EPA/DHA ratios, freshness, small natural capsules, GMO-free, and free from unnecessary additives like vitamin D.
Meeting these standards was not easy, and many products fell short. High-quality Omega-3 was often expensive — but when they discovered Ballstad Omega-3, they finally found a product that met their expectations without compromise.
A New Lifestyle with Ballstad Omega-3
“We thought we didn’t need Omega-3, but now it’s at the center of our lives,” says Gözde. “It will remain part of our daily routine forever, and we want to pass this habit on to our children too.”
For Gökhan, the change was profound:
“I can’t believe how many years I lived without this energy. Omega-3 helped me discover my true potential. Life no longer feels like a burden — it feels like an opportunity.”
Today, the couple channels this newfound vitality into new projects and adventures, confident that those who “walk against the wind” will ultimately succeed. They’ve even introduced Ballstad Omega-3 to their families, eager to share the benefits with loved ones.
The Ballstad Difference
What sets Ballstad Omega-3 apart is its purity, potency, and sustainability. Derived from the cold, clean waters of Norway, it meets the highest standards of quality and freshness — the very values that Gökhan and Gözde sought.
With Ballstad, they found not just a supplement, but a way to live with more balance, strength, and hope for the future.
