Description
- Spectrum Essentials Fish Oil 1000 mg - 100 Softgels Spectrum Essentials Fish Oil contains the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. EPA supports heart health, reduces inflammation and improves cellular integrity, while DHA supports memory and nervous system functioning. Spectrum Essentials Fish Oil comes from non-threatened species of wild-caught, small, plankton-feeding fish (anchovies, mackerel and sardines) that are low on the food chain. Harvesting these types of fish also ensures that our oil tests below acceptable limits of harmful contaminants set by the Council for Responsible Nutrition and other advisory agencies. Spectrum uses only the purest fish oil in Spectrum Essentials Fish Oilwith a naturally occurring ratio of 18:12 EPA to DHA. Convenient 1000 mg softgels. A Powerful Combination of Nutrients Spectrum's Fish Oil with Vitamin D combines our purity-tested Fish Oil, with its rich stores of Omega-3 EPA and DHA, with a potent dose of Vitamin D. These combined nutrients support heart and bone health while also promoting healthy vision, brain and immune functions. The Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) used in this formulation is a naturally occurring form of Vitamin D that is readily absorbed by the human body. Sustainability is One of Spectrum Essentials' Core Values Our Fish Oil comes from non-threatened species of wild-caught fish that are low on the food chain. Harvesting these types of fish also ensures that our oil conforms to the Council for Responsible Nutrition's stringent purity standards related to harmful contaminants like PCBs, dioxins and heavy metals. Spectrum Essentials Norwegian Fish Oil earned the best choice award out of 75 companies from the Environmental Defense Organization. Spectrum Fish Oil Supplements were tested to meet the purifying safety standards and Spectrum was found to meet the strictest standards for safety levels. Where are EPA and DHA found? EPA and DHA are found in mackerel, salmon, herring, sardines, sablefish (black cod), anchovies, albacore tuna, and wild game. Cod liver oil contains large amounts of EPA and DHA. Fish oil supplements typically contain 18% EPA and 12% DHA, though more purified (i.e., higher in EPA and DHA) fish oil supplements are sometimes available. In addition, DHA is available in a supplement that does not contain significant amounts of EPA. The Taste of Goodness Simply put, we're passionate about healthy fats. Spectrum started over twenty years ago with the purpose of making healthy oils available to the American public. That commitment and vision hasn't dimmed one bit. Whether artisan olive oils and trans-fat free spreads, or supplements like Flax Oil and other essential lipids, we're committed to bringing you the best there is. Tradition and Innovation Being a leader often entails forging new paths. Sometimes that means improving on the standard, like creating new packaging to better preserve delicate Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs). Sometimes it means using traditional methods-- like expeller pressing and other natural processes.

Please know that our limited resources make it impossible to respond to each and every one of you and that we feel and appreciate your support, by virtue of the tremendous outpouring of human emotion over this tragic practice.
