Why choose Nordic Naturals Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acids.

Choosing the right Omega 3 fish oil supplement is important, but how do you know what brand to buy?

There are so many manufacturers producing fish oil products right now and many are low grade products that may claim to be pharmaceutical grade but in actuality they fail to meet quality standards needed to see results (and in some cases may be harmful because of toxins in the fish oil). Because fish oil quality standards do not exist in the United States it’s hard to know if you’re getting good fish oil or bad fish oil.

When choosing a fish oil supplement you need to look for purity, freshness, the manufacturing process and the source reputation.

Nordic Naturals products meets all of these requirements.

“To ensure ongoing quality, Nordic Naturals adheres to and exceeds the stringent Norwegian Medicinal Standard (NMS) and the European Pharmacopoeia Standard (EPS) for all products. These standards guarantee quality products by setting maximum allowances on peroxides, heavy metals, dioxins, furans, and PCBs.”

All of Nordic Naturals products are made from three fish species: Arctic Cod, Anchovies, and Sardines, as they are naturally high in the Omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA. Also used in some products is organic evening primrose and borage oils.

Nordic Naturals uses several steps in processing the oils, from water and clay filters to an enzymatic molecular distillation process.

“Leading research institutions such as Harvard University, Georgetown University, Columbia University, and the National Institute of Health have chosen the Nordic Naturals brand for clinical studies. Nordic Naturals products are currently used in fourteen clinical studies at various research facilities and universities around the world. More studies are added every month. ”
