Fish oil DHA and EPA (small capsule)

Some dogs and cats that are fed little fresh food often eat kibble that is high in vegetable oil. Because of cost, cheap oil is often used that is high in Omega-6 fatty acids and low in Omega-3. This can cause a dog or cat to develop symptoms because the wrong ratio promotes inflammation. A good Omega-3 supplement can correct this imbalance and thus make the symptoms disappear or diminish. A bad Omega-3 supplement loses its anti-inflammatory inhibition when the oil is too old. A rancid fish oil is downright unhealthy for humans and animals. The first signs of an oxidized fish oil is an abnormal fish taste. Using fresh oil (even for animals) is one of Arctic Blue's principles. Because the fish is processed within 24 hours in cold northern Norway, the sensitive unsaturated Omega-3 fatty acids remain in good condition. Therefore, we are the only ones transparent about (and proud of) the oxidation value of the oil. This is the main reason why we do not use fish oil from whole sardines and anchovies from warm countries like China or South America. Another reason is that we do not use whole ground fish that could actually be used for other animals or humans. We prefer to use the fillet trimmings and liver of the cod. This method of working has also earned us the MSC label.

Omega-3 fatty acids are among one of the best researched nutrients. Thousands of studies have been done on the importance of these good fats for our health. Therefore, the European government has also made official health claims, which articulate the effect of Omega-3 fats on the body.
