Many people choose to take NORSAN oil neat, straight from the spoon. However, you can also treat it as a versatile kitchen staple and stir it directly into various dishes. For instance, it can be effortlessly mixed into orange juice, smoothies, or even your favourite salad dressing.
The possibilities are truly endless. For those who prefer a different approach, our capsules also provide a practical and convenient alternative.
Below, you will find information on how to seamlessly integrate the oils into your daily routine and what to consider when taking them—ensuring your NORSAN Omega-3 intake is always simple and hassle-free.
How to take our Omega-3 oils
Take 1 spoonful of NORSAN oil per day
How to measure your dose:
NORSAN Total & Arktis: approx. 1 tablespoon daily.
NORSAN Vegan: 1 teaspoon daily.
To achieve the best results, a daily intake of 2,000mg of Omega-3 is recommended. This target is supported by extensive scientific literature and data from more than 30,000 fatty acid profiles conducted by NORSAN. For new users, we suggest a higher dose during the first three months. This initial rebalancing period is vital for correcting a deficiency and establishing a healthy Omega-6/3 ratio.
Regular intake
Regular intake is key to success. A daily dose of Omega-3 – because only through regular intake is it possible to achieve therapeutic and protective effects.
Take with or after a meal
We recommend taking Omega-3 with a meal. This is because the fatty acids are absorbed more effectively by the body. On an empty stomach, fat digestion is not usually stimulated, and so there’s a risk that only a small amount of this valuable oil is actually absorbed. It’s important that the oil is not heated. Whether the oil is taken in the morning, at midday, or in the evening doesn’t matter; the important thing is to combine it with a meal.
Taking Omega-3 is simple:
- Shake the bottle before opening
- Take a spoonful of Omega-3 with or during a meal
- Store the opened Omega-3 oil in the refrigerator
- Repeat steps 1-3 every day and start your Omega-3 routine
Recommendation for children
For children, we recommend our Omega-3 FISK with delicious orange flavour. We recommend the dosage according to body weight, as shown in the table below.
In general, all our products are also suitable for children. It is important that the dosage is adjusted according to weight.*Breastfeeding mothers can optimally supply themselves and their child by supplementing with 2,000 mg of omega-3 fatty acids (1 spoonful) per day.
* Our oil recommendations are based on a 75 kg adult. A child weighing 15 kg would therefore need approximately 1/5 of the adult recommendation.
| Weight | Dosage |
|---|---|
| 9 kg | 2.5 ml daily (approx. 1/2 teaspoon) every 2 days; contains 257 mg of omega-3 fatty acids daily (or 515 mg per spoonful) |
| 17 kg | 2.5 ml daily (approx. 1/2 teaspoon); contains 515 mg of omega-3 fatty acids |
| 35 kg | 5 ml daily (approx. 1 teaspoon); contains 1,030 mg of omega-3 fatty acids |
Tips for parents
Porridge Mountain
Stirred into various types of cereal or fruit puree, FISK oil is undetectable and undetectable by little ones. Parental guidance: Secretly and covertly stirred in.
(Holger from NORSAN)
Airplane Spoon
When the spoon transforms into an airplane and Mom and Dad make funny noises, many children’s eyes light up. And with lots of play and fun, the airplane lands on the tongue. Caution: Spills possible! Parental guidance: Authentic flight simulation
(Kerstin from NORSAN)
The superpower idea
Children experience their own abilities according to the faster-higher-further principle and find anything that supports these values appealing. For example, a daily spoonful of Omega-3 makes a soccer ball fly a little higher each time it’s kicked. This can also serve as a good example for adults. Parenting skills: A credible portrayal with a touch of humour.
