ProOmega-D | Nordic Naturals | EFAs + Vitamin D

---

Ingredients & Description

Support healthy immune function, strong bones and teeth, in addition to providing your brain with essential Omega-3 fatty acids with ProOmega-D from Nordic Naturals.  ProOmega-D nourishes the brain, bones, heart, and immune system with the essential fatty acids EPA and DHA, as well as Vitamin D3.  Modern scientific and clinical studies in humans have shown that a diet rich in EFAs (essential fatty acids), particularly Omega-3s, can enhance immune function, improve cognitive ability, and support a well balanced mood and attitude.  Healthy levels of Vitamin D have been linked to maintaining bone density and integrity as the body ages.

Nordic Naturals has fortified this ProOmega formula with 1000 IU of Vitamin D3.  While humans naturally synthesize Vitamin D in their skin when exposed to sunlight, prolonged hours spent indoors can cause a depletion of this valuable nutrient. When the body experiences a lack of Vitamin D, it is no longer able to absorb Calcium and Phosphorus effectively, thus weakening bones and tooth enamel.  Vitamin D is also necessary for the assimilation of Vitamin A, and plays a role in immune defense.

Asked on: March 8, 2013
Question: Does this product come with enteric coating and labeled IFOS standard?


• 0 0 A:

  It does not appear that these are eneric coated. This is a statement from the manufacturer.

  “Enteric coating uses various compounds to coat the outside of soft gels in order to prevent them from being dissolved by stomach acids, so that the soft gel passes through the stomach to the small intestine where it will then dissolve. Nordic Naturals believe the main reason why fish oil soft gels are enteric coated is to prevent repeat or burping. It is possible that enteric coating may be used to hide the fishy repeat associated with low quality/rancid oils with high TOTOX numbers. Fresh fish oil with low TOTOX values does not need to be masked. It is also important to note that consumers with sub-optimal digestion may not digest and absorb fish oil from an enteric-coated capsule.”
