Nordic Natural Fish Oil is derived from the tissues
of two oily fishes—sardines and anchovies.
Fish oil is a healthy diet with its rich omega-3 fatty acids, eicosapentaenoic
acid, EPA, docosahexaenoic acid, DHA, contents.
It comes from Sardines and Anchovies
Sardines belong to the group of small oily fish related to herring. Named after the Mediterranean island of Sardinia, sardines are rich in calcium, protein and vitamins D and B12. This lowly fish has low contaminants, yet abundant in omega-3 fatty acids.
Anchovies are small salt-water forage fish of green color. However, when immersed in water, they give off blue reflections due to the silver longitudinal line that runs from the base of their fin. They are also classified as an oily fish, hence, a useful source or Nordic Natural Fish Oil.
Not all fish oil products are beneficial to people. In 2006, fish oil
supplements were put under scrutiny by government agencies in the United
Kingdom because of alleged excess in the limit of Polychlorinated biphenyls,
organic compounds found in most fish oil brands.
How Fish Oil Is Produced
There are three ways to ensure that your fish oil gives you only benefits, and no toxins. The manufacturing process is important. It is best if you know how fish oil products are manufactured. This will insure that the standards are high.
Smell the fish oil you would like to buy, how does
it smell? If it smells fishy, it is no good; the fish oil has been exposed
to oxygen. Fish oil oxidizes quickly in air.
Nordic Natural Fish Oil is processed using acid clay to remove the pungent
smell from the fish oil. Fermentation is usually the process for extracting
the oil. The oil is heated and stirred to allow the water content to evaporate
from the mixture.
The fish oil is then dehydrated. The oil is deodorized to remove the bitter and pungent smell before it is preserved in an air tight container and exported to distant destinations.
Check Your Fish Oil
Taste the fish oil. If it tastes fishy, it is no longer fresh. Nordic Natural Fish Oil ensures that only the freshest oil is used to complete the meticulous process. Nordic never uses strong fruit flavor to hide the fish flavor of rancid oil.
