Nordic fish oil is an important healthy fat for not only our hearts but our eyes as well.
However, fish oil is not easily incorporated into the western or American diet. There are many studies that show the benefit of either eating several servings of oily fish a week or supplementing with fish oil.
What is Fish Oil?Fish oil contains essential fatty acids (EFAs). They are called essential becuase our bodies cannot produce them and without them we die.There are two types of EFAs: 
√ Omega-6 EFAs - found in vegetable oils such as corn oil and soybean oil √ Omega-3 EFAs - found in walnut oil, flaxseed oil, fatty fish, and marine plankton The two critical types are: docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Both DHA and EPA are NOT found in plant food sources such as flax, walnuts or canola oil. These plant sources are rich in alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). However, the metabolic conversion of ALA to DHA/EPA (combined) is very inefficient. The most direct way of providing DHA plus EPA for the body is through eating cold water fish or fish oil supplements. To learn more click here:
