EPA and DHA, the omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil, are essential for maintaining optimal mental and physical health. To date, over 8,000 research studies have documented the health-promoting effects of omega-3 fatty acids – they show that fish oils strengthen the heart, support the body’s natural anti-inflammatory response, and nourish the bones and joints. Every year additional studies continue to be published focusing on the mental and physical health benefits of EPA and DHA.
Nordic Naturals, Inc. was founded by Norwegian born, Joar Opheim, who recognized the lack of fish oils in the United States when he first arrived here 20 years ago. “Having been born and raised in Arctic Norway, where the fishing industry is a crucial part of both the commerce and academia, I was aware of the importance of pure omega-3 in the diet.” Today Nordic Naturals is the leading supplier of fish oils to the natural product industry, as well as the professional market and prominent research organizations.
Nordic Naturals fish oils are produced from the highest quality raw materials and processed with innovative, multi-patented technologies, allowing us to deliver levels of freshness, purity and taste unheard of only a few years ago.
Fish oil quality standards do not exist in the United States. To ensure consistent 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, and PCBs.
