Nordic Naturals at Natural Apothecary Shoppe

Natural Apothecary Shoppe carries a curated selection of Nordic Naturals supplements online and in store. This page is a simple guide to what each category is generally used for, so you can choose based on your wellness goals, dietary preferences, and life stage.

Omega-3s

Omega-3s are essential fats many people use for everyday wellness support—especially when diet is low in fatty fish or when additional support is desired for the brain, eyes, heart, joints, and overall comfort. The two most well-known omega-3s are DHA and EPA, commonly sourced from marine oils (like fish and cod) or algae.

When omega-3s are often most helpful — daily foundational support, periods of higher stress or activity, and when you want extra support for heart, brain/eye health, and a healthy inflammatory response.

DHA — commonly chosen for brain, eye, and nervous system support; often emphasized during pregnancy, breastfeeding, and early childhood development.

EPA — commonly chosen for heart support and a healthy inflammatory response (a normal part of how the body responds to everyday stress and activity); also often chosen for joint and overall comfort support.

Cod Liver Oil

Cod liver oil is a traditional omega-3 option sourced from cod liver. It’s commonly chosen as a “classic daily” supplement and is valued for naturally occurring fat-soluble nutrients along with omega-3s.

When cod liver oil may be a good option — when you want an omega-3 routine with a long history of traditional use, especially during seasons when many people focus on immune and overall resilience support.

What it is generally used for — everyday wellness support, general immune support, and overall vitality (fat-soluble nutrients are often part of why people choose it).

Arctic Cod Liver Oil options carried include:

Arctic Cod Liver Oil 90 Caps (capsule format for convenience and travel)

Arctic Cod Liver Oil Lemon (flavored liquid)

Arctic Cod Liver Oil Orange (flavored liquid)

Arctic Cod Liver Oil Strawberry (flavored liquid)

Plant-Based Omega Options

If you avoid fish or prefer a vegetarian option, algae-derived omega-3s provide a marine source of DHA (and may include additional omegas depending on the formula). Algae is where marine omega-3s begin in the food chain, so this can be a helpful choice for people who want a plant-based approach without fish oil.

When algae-based omega-3s are often most helpful — vegetarian/vegan diets, fish allergies or sensitivities, taste preferences, and anyone seeking a fish-free DHA option for brain/eye support and everyday wellness.

Prenatal and Children’s Formulas

Different life stages can benefit from different omega-3 needs and formats. These options are designed to be age-appropriate and easier to take consistently.

When life-stage formulas are most helpful — preconception through pregnancy and breastfeeding, infancy and toddlerhood, and school-age years when consistent intake matters and kid-friendly formats support routine use.

Prenatal DHA — commonly chosen for preconception and pregnancy support; DHA-forward to support baby’s developing brain and eyes and mom’s nutritional needs.*

Babys DHA (formerly DHA Infant) — infant DHA support; follow age and serving guidance.

Children's DHA — kid-friendly DHA support for brain and eyes during school-age years.

Pro Omega Junior — junior formula that can be a helpful bridge as kids grow and routines change.

Pro Omega / Pro DHA / Pro EPA / Pro EFA / Borage Oil

These are higher-potency and/or specialty fatty-acid options. People often choose them when they already know they do well with omega-3s and want more targeted support, or when a practitioner has suggested a specific balance of fats.

Pro Omega — a balanced DHA/EPA option often chosen for overall omega-3 support when you want both brain/eye and heart/inflammatory-response support in one formula.

Pro DHA — often chosen when you want a DHA-forward formula (commonly for brain/eye and nervous system support; frequently considered during pregnancy and early development).

Pro EPA — often chosen when you want an EPA-forward formula (commonly for heart support and a healthy inflammatory response; also often chosen for joint and overall comfort support).

Pro EFA 3-6-9 — a blend of essential fatty acids often chosen for people looking for broader fatty-acid support beyond omega-3 alone (commonly used for skin and overall comfort support).

Borage Oil — often chosen for skin moisture and overall comfort support.

Vitamin Gummies

Gummies can be a practical way to support daily nutrient intake—especially for picky eaters, teens, or adults who dislike swallowing pills. Many people use gummies as simple “nutritional basics” to help with consistency.

When gummies are a good choice — when you want an easy daily routine, when taste and texture matter, or when you’re supporting a family member who won’t take capsules or liquids.

Nordic Berries — multivitamin-style gummies commonly used for everyday foundational nutrient support.

Vitamin C — commonly used for antioxidant support and everyday immune support.

Vitamin D3 — commonly chosen for immune and bone support, especially with limited sun exposure.

Products carried include:

Nordic Berries 120 Gummies (multivitamin-style gummies)
