Hive Five™ Certified
No need to guess what's in your food or how it was made. Our experts vet every product for ingredient integrity, responsible sourcing, and great taste using our own criteria called the Hive Five.
Nordic Naturals always starts with the very best raw materials available. Their quality control starts in the ocean, with their careful choice of fish species that are low in toxins and high in omega-3 fats. All their omega-3 products are made exclusively from three types of non-endangered wild fish, caught in pristine waters. By choosing non-GMO products, they are reducing your exposure to toxic herbicides that GMO crops are bioengineered to be resistant to. Nordic Naturals' products do not contain ingredients on Hive's No Good, Dirty Rotten list of banned and watch list ingredients.
Their fish oils are sustainably made in a zero waste facility powered by biofuel. In California, Nordic Naturals' LEED Gold-certified HQ helps minimize their impact on the earth, while their plant in Arctic Norway is powered entirely by unused biofuel that's a byproduct of the fish oil manufacturing process. All of the facility's wastewater is thoroughly cleaned before being sent into the ocean, minimizing pollution and conserving resources. Plus, every Nordic Naturals product is tested to verify potency, purity, and freshness by certified laboratories and they gladly share those results with their customers.
Nordic Naturals packages their products in widely recyclable HDPE #2 bottles, which are less likely to shed microplastics because of their inert composition.
The crew at Nordic Naturals are always looking for ways to support their local community through donations and their time. Some of the local organizations they support include the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Santa Cruz County, and the Second Harvest Food Bank Santa Cruz County.
Our team personally tests every product to make sure it’s good enough to end up in your home, not a landfill.

Nordic Naturals
The story behind Nordic Naturals begins in Artic Norway, where founder and CEO Joar Orphein grew up. When Joar came to California, he noticed that the pure omega-rich cod liver oil that Norwegians use to stay healthy was nowhere to be found. All he could find was low-concentration fish oil with a terrible aftertaste. Driven by the desire to share the power of pure, fresh omega-3 nutrients, Joar founded Nordic Naturals in 1995. Today, Nordic Naturals continues to deliver quality, sustainably made fish oil products that are rigorously tested for purity and freshness.
