Arctic Cod Liver Oil Liquid (8oz)
Why Fish Oil?
Fish oil is a medicinal food that everybody needs. There are long chain polyunsaturated fats in fish oil (EPA and DHA) that are not obtained in a pure, clean form elsewhere in the diet. These fats are incorporated throughout our bodies by design, and an absence of them requires the body to use inferior fats to try to fill their roles.
EPA and DHA have been linked to better cardiovascular health, mental health, joint health, eye health, immune health and a normal inflammatory response to injuries and infections. These fats are critical for every organ and tissue in your body.
Throughout the Seasons of Life:
- Pregnant moms need fish oil for their baby’s nerve and brain development, and stable good mood after birth
- Infants and toddlers need fish oil for developing normal immunity: training a normal response to possible allergens, normal breathing when exposed to allergens
- Children need fish oil for brain health: focus, concentration, mood and intelligence
- Athletes need fish oil for body structure: Joint health, proper inflammatory response to stress injuries
- Adults need fish oil for whole body health: cardiovascular, immunity, mental, joint, eye health and more. . .
- Seniors need fish oil for brain health, normal cognitive function, joint health, eye health and more. . .
Do Vegans need fish oil?
Yes. Several studies, including our own, have shown that people do not make enough DHA from plant-based omega 3 oils like chia seeds, flax seeds, soy, canola or walnut oil. Without a dietary source of DHA the body will be lacking and will suffer the consequences that result from a shortage of this essential nutrient.
