Nordic Naturals Nordic Fish Oil Brand Introduction

Nordic Naturals is one of the most popular fish oil supplement brands in the United States, and its founder, Joar Opheim, is Norwegian and founded Nordic in the 80s. Similar to American fish oil brands such as Kangsheng, Nortick is produced locally in Norway and uses wild deep-sea fish such as Atlantic cod, anchovies and sardines as raw materials, which can be sent to processing plants within a short time after harvesting, which can greatly reduce the oxidation of fish oil and maintain freshness.
 
According to the purpose of use and the group of people, Nortik fish oil products have detailed subdivision products, which are divided into three series: infants, adolescents, pregnant women, middle-aged and elderly people, and the main sales of infants, children and adolescents series.
 
Nortec baby fish oil is a triglyceride type, and the Omega-3 content in the product is not high, but the absorption rate is good. Among the products for babies and teenagers, the best-selling products are Children's DHA and baby's DHA, although these two products bear the name of DHA, they are actually cod liver oil, which contains a certain amount of vitamin A and D, unless there is a lack of vitamins, it is not recommended to use it as a fish oil product.
 
COMPLETE OMEGA JR, ULTIMATE OMEGA JR, and Daily DHA are also Nordic's baby and adolescent fish oil products, which are not high in DHA and EPA, and are suitable for daily supplementation. The difference between COMPLETE and ULTIMATE is that the former is a comprehensive fish oil, in addition to Omega-3, there are also Omega-6 and Omega-9 polyunsaturated fatty acids, and the latter is specifically supplemented with Omega-3, DHA and EPA content. Daily DHA is a high-content fish oil, but it is not indicated as triglyceride fish oil, with a high proportion of DHA, each capsule contains 480mg of DHA, which is too high for young children, and can be taken once every other day.
 
IN NORTEC FISH OIL PRODUCTS FOR PREGNANT WOMEN, THERE ARE TWO TYPES: PRENATAL DHA DURING PREGNANCY AND POSTNATAL OMEGA-3, BOTH OF WHICH ARE FISH OIL VITAMIN D, THE DIFFERENCE IS IN EPA AND VITAMIN D CONTENT, AND THE CONTENT OF BOTH IS HIGHER IN THE POSTNATAL TYPE. The purpose of fish oil supplementation for pregnant women is to increase the amount of DHA in the body, and the DHA in breast milk is closely related to the content of maternal DHA. The Journal of Nutrition article "Survey on Fatty Acid Intake of Pregnant Women in Different Aquatic Product Consumption Areas" pointed out that the DHA content of breast milk of pregnant women in inland Chinese mainland (0.24g/100g) was significantly lower than that of pregnant women in coastal (0.47g/100g) and river and lake (0.41g/100g) areas where fish is often eaten. On the other hand, EPA increases the risk of bleeding, which is good for cardiovascular diseases such as blood clots, but not for pregnant women. NORTEC PRENATAL DHA IS SUITABLE FOR USE DURING PREGNANCY, WITH LOWER EPA LEVELS AND POSTNATAL OMEGA-3 BEING MORE SUITABLE FOR POSTPARTUM LACTATING WOMEN.
 
Nortick middle-aged and elderly fish oil is mainly for cardiovascular problems, Omega-3 content is much higher than other products, the price is not low, its 180 capsules/bottle price is 498 yuan.
 
All Nordic fish oil products are palatable, with lemon flavor enhancer added to them, so you won't feel the heavy fishy smell when you take them. Nortec uses nitrogen throughout the production and bottling process to minimise the contact between the fish oil and oxygen, and the product is carefully differentiated so that consumers can purchase it according to the actual situation.
