Omega 3 oil is manufactured at the Nordic Pharma plant, using sustainable fishing and state-of-the-art processes, in an oxygen-free environment with a nitrogen atmosphere, through enzymatic molecular distillation that allows for the elimination of environmental toxins.

At the same time, the products are formulated by experts, proven effective, great-tasting, and have the highest biological efficacy. "Nordic Naturals Omega 3 is made with fresh ingredients and purified using solvent-free technologies. It is delivered in the triglyceride molecular form, which is the one naturally found in fish," explains integrative nutritionist Nelba Villagrán.

"A frequent consumption of 100 grams net of fatty cold-water fish is recommended,
three times a week, but many people avoid eating fish, whether because they don't have the habit, lack access to frequent purchases, dislike the taste, or due to growing concern about environmental toxins that might be in the fish.

According to the INTA at the University of Chile, fish consumption in Chile is between 7 and 10 kilos per person per year, when the world average is 20 kilos.

Supplementing with Nordic Naturals Omega 3 could be a good option to obtain the beneficial effects, without the risk of consuming harmful substances found in fish," says Nelba Villagrán.
Additionally, she points out that there are several factors that can lead to reduced absorption of these essential fatty acids that the body cannot produce, such as age, poor diet, alcohol consumption, low levels of certain vitamins and minerals, and compromised immune status, among others.

Nelba Villagrán, a nutritionist at Ortomolecular Chile, points out that supplements, especially Omega 3 EPA and DHA, are polyunsaturated fatty acids that have demonstrated, over decades of scientific research, that they provide significant benefits for the health of every cell, organ, and system in the body.

“It has been proven that these fatty acids are deficient in the Western diet, which is why consuming high-quality supplements becomes a relevant factor.

DHA makes up 20% of the total fatty acids in the cerebral cortex; it is responsible for memory and attention processing, and is also essential for the proper functioning of cell membranes, the retina, and sperm. It has its highest concentration in ocular tissue, at 30%,” she maintains.

She adds that during pregnancy and breastfeeding, the consumption of DHA-type Omega 3 is of special importance, as physical and brain growth and development are related to the intake of this fatty acid. Meanwhile, from age four and through adolescence and adulthood, the intake of EPA becomes relevant, in addition to DHA, for general health, and especially for cardiovascular health.

It is worth mentioning that cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in our country.

Among the properties of Omega 3, its mild effects stand out:

• Anticoagulant
• Anti-inflammatory
• Contribution to reducing triglycerides
• Arthritis
• Autoimmune conditions
• Thrombosis
• All those that involve inflammation

Some non-conclusive studies have linked Omega 3 consumption to the prevention of Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative problems.

Finally, as human beings, we are made up of 50% microorganisms, most of which are found in the intestine. This population is called the microbiota, and the brain, immune, central nervous system, and other essential functionalities depend on its health. We have one of the best Omega 3s on the Chilean market, with a variety of concentrations suitable for every individual, with a unique flavor, without fishy-smelling reflux, useful for treating various chronic diseases that involve inflammation.

30,000 published studies confirm that Omega-3 EPA and DHA have an important role throughout the body, as structural components of the cell membranes of the nearly 37 trillion human cells and due to their anti-inflammatory properties.”
