Metagenics is a nutritional company selling only to health care professionals that strictly adheres to high quality standards.
- GMP-certified manufacturing-the ultimate quality marker. If it's on the label, it's in the bottle-guaranteed. Metagenics' manufacturing facility is certified for good manufacturing practices (GMP) by the Natural Products Association (NPA), National Sanitation Foundation (NSF), and the Therapeutic Goods Administration of Australia (TGA) to ensure the highest quality standards. It's a sure way to know you're getting exactly what you pay for.
- Pure ingredients-identity tested on multiple levels. Metagenics quarantines each raw material then test each thoroughly to support quality, safety, and efficacy. On formulas requiring especially sensitive or perishable ingredients, Metagenics conducts additional testing-above and beyond the testing required of us by the Food and Drug Administration current good manufacturing practices, or cGMPs. A batch of each final product is then tested again for purity as an added safety measure and confirmation of quality. Our attention to detail here is unmatched in our industry.
- Safety-reviewed ingredients—we won't create a formula without them. Metagenics has an onsite research staff and medical information center with access to thousands of peer-reviewed scientific publications. It's an added assurance for products you can trust.
- Human clinical evaluations-the surest way to show effectiveness. The best way to test effectiveness and safety of a nutritional product is to see how it works with real patients. The Functional Medicine Research Center (FMRC)-the clinical research arm of Metagenics-is an on-site clinic staffed by medical professionals who recommend nutritional approaches, monitor their success, and conduct clinical trials.
Nordic Naturals’ mission is to deliver pure and great-tasting omega fish oils that promote optimal health and wellness.
- Governmental fish oil quality standards do not exist in the United States. To ensure consistent quality, Nordic Naturals adheres to and exceeds the stringent Norwegian Medicinal Standard (NMS) and the European Pharmacopoeia Standard (EPS) as well as the voluntary standards set by the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN) and the Global Organization for EPA and DHA Omega-3 (GOED) for all of our products. These standards guarantee quality products by setting maximum allowances on peroxides, heavy metals, dioxins, and PCBs.
- Every batch of Nordic Naturals products is third-party tested for environmental toxins including heavy metals, dioxins, and PCBs, ensuring that every product exceeds international pharmaceutical standards and is at least 750 times purer than fish. Nordic Naturals was ranked #1 out of the top 10 fish oil brands in Norway for freshness, purity, and highest concentration.
- Most children are deficient in EPA and DHA, the omega-3 essential fatty acids in fish oil. These vital nutrients are crucial building blocks of child development and play key roles in every aspect of health, including brain and eye function. Supplementing with Nordic Naturals fish oil is a safe, pure, and effective way to give your child’s mental and physical well-being a nutritional head start.
