Distillation required by Norwegian
Medicinal Requirements
Nordic Naturals’ goal is to deliver
the highest quality Omega-3 fatty acid products available.
They measure the quality of their Omega-3 products based on three
variables: Freshness value (meq/kg), Purity (PCB ppb), and
Concentration level (% DHA & EPA). Our products are manufactured
according to European Pharmacopoeia, Norwegian Medicinal,
and GMP requirements.
Nordic Naturals product quality exceeds all these requirements, which
is mainly due to our molecular distillation process. They distill
all of the Omega-3 products for purity.
Nordic Naturals Omega-3 oils are Third Party tested with positively
no PCBs, heavy metals, or dioxins. Our oils have been tested
down to 2.5 ppb exceeding FDA purity levels by 400 times.
Sustained Molecular Distillation
Here, the virgin oil is molecularly distilled
to segregate out the two most important Omega-3 fatty acids
DHA and EPA, and to eliminate the potential of heavy metals,
PCBs, and dioxins in the product. The molecular distillation
process represents a gentle and efficient oil enhancement,
and generally takes about 5 days to process. The entire manufacturing
process is carried out under nitrogen or vacuum.
This is done to maximize the products’ freshness value,
which facilitates the production of favorable prostaglandins.
Prostaglandins control an array of vital bodily functions.
Through the use of molecular distillation Nordic Naturals is able to deliver Omega-3 products with concentration levels above 80%. A final
nitrogen flush removes oxygen, preserving the oil from oxidation
and maintaining the ultra low peroxide value.
Exceptional Freshness
Nordic Naturals uses a nitrogen manufacturing environment where there is no opportunity for oxidation to occur, thus preventing rancidity (free radicals). We also incorporate a synergistic blend of powerful antioxidants, made specifically as a natural product to stabilize fats and reduce the effects of oxidation. This is our foundation for uncompromising freshness.
Polyunsaturated oils (i.e.: flax oil, fish oil, evening primrose oil, etc.) are highly susceptible to "peroxidation", which is a technical term for rancidity when exposed to oxygen. In order to prevent this process from happening, Nordic Naturals has added a natural blend of advanced antioxidants to "stabilize" their oils and protect them from becoming rancid. This blend consists of lecithin, ascorbyl palmitate (vitamin C), added vitamin E with both gamma and alpha tocopherols. An independent analysis has shown that this natural blend of antioxidants can stabilize fish oil up to 20 times longer than standard antioxidants, which translates into – better taste and better results!
