NORDIC
NATURALS
Nordic Naturals
develop pure and great tasting Omega Oils. Each batch of fish oils surpasses
all national and international pharmaceutical standards for freshness
and purity and is free from heavy metals, dioxins, PCBs. Furthermore Nordic
Naturals uses an exclusive distillation and nitrogen manufacturing process
to ensure no fishy taste or aftertaste.
Derived from
Arctic Norwegian Cod liver, Nordic's Children’s DHA Formula features
strawberry flavor and capsules are small enough for children over two
years old (smaller than a pea), and can even be chewed for a burst of
great strawberry taste!
Nordic Naturals uses a nitrogen manufacturing environment where there
is no opportunity for oxidation to occur, thus preventing rancidity (free
radicals). They also incorporate a synergistic blend of powerful antioxidants,
made specifically as a natural product to stabilize fats and reduce the
effects of oxidation. This is their foundation for uncompromising freshness.
Polyunsaturated oils
(i.e.: flax oil, fish oil, evening primrose oil, etc.) are highly susceptible
to peroxidation. In order to prevent this process from happening, Nordic
Naturals has added a natural blend of advanced antioxidants to "stabilize"
their oils and protect them from becoming rancid. This blend consists
of lecithin, ascorbyl palmitate (vitamin C), added vitamin E with both
gamma and alpha tocopherols. An independent analysis has shown that this
natural blend of antioxidants can stabilize fish oil up to 20 times longer
than standard antioxidants, which translates into – better taste
and better results!
Distillation
for Purity & Concentration
Nordic Naturals’ goal is to deliver the highest quality Omega-3
fatty acid products available. We measure the quality of our Omega-3 products
based on three variables: Freshness value (meq/kg), Purity (PCB ppb),
and Concentration level (% DHA & EPA). Our products are manufactured
according to European Pharmacopoeia, Norwegian Medicinal, and GMP requirements.
Product quality exceeds
all these requirements, which is mainly due to our molecular distillation
process. All Omega-3 products are distilled for purity.
Nordic Naturals Omega-3
oils are Third Party tested with positively no PCBs, heavy metals, or
dioxins. Our oils have been tested down to 2.5 ppb exceeding FDA purity
levels by 400 times.
Sustained
Molecular Distillation
Here, the virgin oil is molecularly distilled to segregate out the two
most important Omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA, and to eliminate the potential
of heavy metals, PCBs, and dioxins in the product. The molecular distillation
process represents a gentle and efficient oil enhancement, and generally
takes about 5 days to process. The entire manufacturing process is carried
out under nitrogen or vacuum. This is done to maximize the products’
freshness value, which facilitates the production of favorable prostaglandins.
Prostaglandins control an array of vital bodily functions.
Through the use of
molecular distillation we are able to deliver Omega-3 products with concentration
levels above 80%. A final nitrogen flush removes oxygen, preserving the
oil from oxidation and maintaining the ultra low peroxide value.
