Watsonville, CA (September 30, 2008) “Gummies” have taken the world by storm and Nordic Naturals, America’s favorite fish oil company, introduces Nordic Omega-3 Gummies, the “ultimate fish oil gummie” with natural tangerine flavor. Perfect for two-year-olds and up, Nordic Omega-3 Gummies are a gourmet treat made with organic sweeteners and purified fish oil from anchovies and sardines. The product does not contain artificial color or flavors, preservatives, gluten, yeast or milk derivatives.

“Compliance is the key to fish oils,” says Dr. Keri Marshall, advisor to Nordic Naturals and a specialist in children’s health and wellness. “You’ve got to have a great-tasting product so that kids will enjoy taking their omega-3s and even remind their parents that they need their daily dose. Nordic Omega-3 Gummies are the perfect solution for little ones that don’t want to chew soft gels or take liquids.”

Nordic Omega-3 Gummies are rich in the important omega-3 essential fatty acids, EPA and DHA, and support proper brain, eye and nervous system development in children. Adds Keri, “Fish oils promote a healthy immune system while providing kids an important boost in their school performance; enhanced learning ability and improved memory and focus power are just a few of things we immediately see when kids start getting adequate levels of these essential fats.” Suggested serving size is 2 gummies daily with food.

Nordic Omega-3 Gummies join a complete line of high quality children’s products from Nordic Naturals that includes cod liver oil in liquids and flavored soft gels as well as other full spectrum essential fatty acid supplementation. The new gummies are a perfect compliment to the company’s natural multivitamin called Nordic Berries, a pectin-based chewable for children two years and older. Nordic Naturals products are safe for children and every member of the family because of the company’s voluntary commitment to exceed even the strictest international standards for purity and freshness. Each batch of fish oil is regularly tested by independent laboratories and is guaranteed to have no detected levels of contaminants.  

Nordic Naturals is the leader in omega-3 fish oils and EFA blends with exceptional taste, freshness, and purity levels. The company has over 80 different fish oil products, including liquids, soft gels, and children's chewables. The company was recently named the “Top-Rated Supplement Brand” by the 2008 ConsumerLab.com Survey of Vitamin and Supplement Users, receiving two recognitions, #1 Rated Health Food Store Brand  for Consumer Satisfaction and #1 Rated Overall Brand for Consumer Satisfaction throughout 8 different distribution channels.
