Why a Supplement?
Fish is the primary food source for Omega-3s EPA and DHA, but Americans don’t eat enough fish on a regular basis. In fact, research indicates that even if you eat fish several times a week, you aren’t getting enough EPA and DHA because much of the fish consumed today is farm-raised and lacks significant amounts of EPA and DHA. In addition, age, poor diet, alcohol consumption, low levels of certain vitamins and minerals, some prescription drugs and diets high in saturated trans-fatty acids are among the factors that lead to reduced absorption of essential fatty acids. That’s where Nordic Naturals EPA comes in.

Not Just Another Fish in the Sea
Each of the trillions of cells in your body contains Omega-3 fatty acids that help your body function normally. But your body can’t produce Omega-3’s on its own. There are two main sources on which people depend to maintain adequate Omega-3’s: plants and cold-water fish or algae. It would take a 10-ounce bag of flax-meal from the grocery store to get the EPA and DHA in a single dose of Nordic Naturals, which is why this formula depends on the marine sources: They have been shown to be far superior.

Promote a Sense of Calm
Omega-3 EPA+DHA is vital for overall health, and this formula focuses on promoting cardiovascular health and mood improvement. While DHA helps keep cell membranes fluid, EPA helps counter cellular stress – particularly important for modulating behavior and mood. With four times as much Omega-3 EPA as DHA, nourish your body’s cells with this concentrated EPA formula to help decrease depression symptoms and help you maintain a sense of calm. In fact, a 2012 research study found that Omega-3 supplementation to prescription treatment helped reduce symptoms in patients with depressive orders by maintaining membrane integrity and fluidity.

Pure and Fresh
Every batch of Nordic Naturals fish oil is third-party tested for environmental toxins, including heavy metals, dioxins, and PCB’s. All fish oils in Nordic Naturals products are in the triglyceride form and surpass the strictest international standards for purity and freshness.
