Arctic Cod Liver Oil 237 ml - Unflavored

Product description:

• Cod liver oil from 100% wild Arctic cod.
• Supports the normal function of the heart, the brain and vision.
• Unflavoured - cod liver oil in its most literal form, without a flavour layer on top.

A spoonful of oil stirred into a meal is often the simplest way to get marine omega-3 into an everyday menu. With this in mind, Nordic Naturals created Arctic Cod Liver Oil 237 ml - Unflavored! What people reach for it for are two marine fatty acids, EPA and DHA, polyunsaturated fats which the body cannot make for itself and has to receive from food - and from which it builds the walls of its own cells. The oil comes from 100% wild Arctic cod and from nothing else. The fat keeps the same shape it already had in the liver. Cod liver oil is pressed from the whole liver rather than from an extract, so along with the acids comes what a cod's liver gathers naturally: vitamins A and D. This is the plainest version in the family, with no flavour layer built on top of the oil, and its liquid form lets it be stirred into food instead of swallowed as capsules.

EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart, and DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and normal vision. The two arrive there from completely different directions. DHA is a building material: it is physically built into the walls of the cells of the brain and the retina, and how soft such a wall stays decides whether the proteins embedded in it can work and whether a signal passes through cleanly. That is why the brain and the eye - the tissues where information travels fastest - hold more DHA than anywhere else in the body. EPA rarely settles for good: it circulates with the blood and becomes the raw material cells use to make their own messenger molecules, the ones they talk to each other with. The cells of the heart muscle have exactly the same walls and exchange signals in exactly the same way, so the heart draws on both acids at once - which is why they are always named together.

Bring back the oldest good habit in the north - one spoonful a day!
