Fish meat can be expensive. Moreover, Western diets usually compose of meat rather than fish. That’s why unless it comes in junk food plastics or with chips, fish nowadays doesn’t frequently find itself in our meals. The recommended fish serving for an adult is twice a week; that should more or less make up to the required 500 mg or more of Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. 

For those who are not familiar with Omega-3 fatty acids, these are essential fatty acids, meaning, they are not naturally synthesized by the body. There are three kinds of Omega-3 fatty acids, mainly: alphalinolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The first one which is ALA is commonly obtained from plant oils, while the remaining two are sourced from animal oils particularly from marine animals. The most well-known animal oil in the market today due to its abundance in EPA and DHA fatty acids is fish oil. Several brands, usually off-the-shelves, have sprouted all over many stores. But still, there is the ultimate, most superior of them all – and that is the Icelandic fish oil.

Why Icelandic Fish Oil?

Fish oils are famous as healthy alternative to fish meat. However, the polluted waters we have today are not only teeming with fish, but with toxins as well, such as mercury and PCBs. Fishing industry is a major economy in the country of Iceland. Fishes are priced catch both for food and medicinal purposes. The pristine waters of Iceland are one of the cleanest and purest in the world, and so are the organisms that thrive in them.

There are several fish oil brands in the market today, and choosing which one is the best from them, and toxin-free of course, will be a challenge. The Icelandic fish oil, like all fish oils, promises the wonders of Omega-3 fatty acids, which studies proved are substantial in ensuring healthy pregnancy, improving brain functions and lowering risks of heart disease and certain cancers. However, fish oil has the definite edge because it is sourced from deep-water fishes of the Iceland, which are guaranteed pure, clean and toxin-free. Added to this, fish oil is manufactured with high quality technologies, specifically molecular distillation – a method that is specially designed to make any possible toxic content of a finished product close to nil.

How Superior is Icelandic Fish Oil?

Icelandic fish oil reigns supreme among its competitors, because aside from its purity, it contains the highest amount of Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA in a marketable pill. It usually boasts a 1000 to 4000 milligram amount of Omega-3 in one capsule.

Fish oil is absolutely good inside, but what about outside? Fish oil is contained in an enteric, soft-gel capsule. The fish oil is tightly contained that not even a tiny bit of fishy scent exudes from it. The soft coating makes it easier to swallow and digest.

The enteric capsule also guarantees that all its contents will be expelled only when it reach the stomach, therefore eliminating the ugly consequence of having a fishy aftertaste and bad breath when the capsule is taken.
