where do we
get the omega-3 supplements for our products?
As our name implies, our products are sourced from Alaskan wild-caught salmon. Wild salmon tend to have naturally higher contents of Omega-3 fatty acids in their bodies than salmon bred in fish farms, which makes them ideal for our skin and coat products.
What are the different kinds of omega-3s?
The three Omega-3 fatty acids are eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexanoic acid (DHA) and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). EPA and DHA are the most common, found primarily in cold-water fish such as the wild Alaskan salmon we use for our products. EPA and DHA are known for supporting heart, brain and eye health at all stages of life.
