Nordic Naturals

What make Nordic naturals a good product?

Nordic Naturals is fish oil that has gained a great reputation as quality product. But, I want to give you some information on why fish oil is such a good product provided you get a good product.

First of all, fish oil consists of fatty acids. It is these acids that you know as omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9. The most important of these three acids is omega-9. But for right now, we will only discuss the importance of omega 3 and omega 6, since omega-9 is hard to find in various oils.

It is best at this time to use fish oil to get your omegas. You can use flax seed oil, but you need a special enzyme, in your body, to break down the flax seed oil into DHA and EPA fatty acids.

When you take fish oil or Nordic Naturals you don’t need this enzyme in your body to convert the fish oil into DHA and EPA, since these acids already exist in this form in the fish oil.

When you take flax seed oil and don’t have that special body enzyme, then you will not get the benefits of DHA and EPA, since your body can’t covert the flax seed omega-3 oil to DHA and EPA.

So maybe you ask, “What the big deal about DHA and EPA?”

Let’s start with DHA, which a short for Docosahexaenoic Acid. EPA is short for Eicosapentaenoic acid. Both of these acids are what are known as prostaglandins.

When you look at Nordic Naturals, you see that it already contains DHA and EPA. All fish oil contains different levels of DHA and EPA. A good fish has little lipid peroxides, contaminates from the environment, and no heavy metals.

Most fish oil or flax seed oil is sold in dark bottles. This is done because these oils are affected by light and will become rancid over a short time. You should never cook with these oils, since the oils will oxidize and form free radicals. Free radicals are chemicals that travel throughout your body creating tissue damage.

Ok now go back and talk about Omega 3. There are many oils that contain omega 3. But flax seeds, brown or gold which have the same nutritional value, have a high level of omega 3. Nordic Naturals contain omega 3 but not as much as flax seed oil, but it has a lot more DHA and EPA.

Because flax seed oil has some nutrients that Nordic Naturals does not have it is best to use both in your diet. You can take fish oil on some days and flax seed on other days.

here is a list of some of the disease, but not all, that you can contract if you don’t get enough omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids.
