Our Utterly Unique Vitamin D
 
We are pleased to introduce a high-quality, higher-potency vitamin D supplement … one with unique attractions!
 
Each tiny, 300 mg softgel capsule of Vital Choice Vitamin D3 in Wild Sockeye Salmon Oil provides a generous 2,000 International Units (IU) of vitamin D3.
 
D3 is the preferred, natural form of this amazing vitamin, and ours is certified pure and potent by NSF .
 
Better yet, our D3 comes in a base of whole, unrefined, certified-pure, sockeye salmon oil, certified sustainable by the MSC .
 
Each Vitamin D3 softgel contains 45mg of omega-3s, but health authorities recommend 500mg of omega-3s per day, so it doesn't replace fish oil.
 
A 3,000mg daily serving of our Sockeye Salmon Oil provides 460mg, so if you also take one Vitamin D3 in Salmon Oil softgel per day, that would bring your supplemental omega-3 intake to a perfect 505mg!

World's Finest Fish Oil ... Whole and Pure



Our "whole food"
Omega-3 Salmon Oil supplements contain only unrefined oil from wild Alaska Sockeye Salmon: a fish whose renowned purity is reflected in the pristine contents of our naturally colorful capsules.

Unlike standard fish oils, our naturally pure Sockeye Salmon Oil does not need to be chemically refined: a process that can damage omega-3s. Instead, our oil's 
purity and potency are certified by NSF.

As a result, our whole, unrefined Sockeye Salmon Oil retains all of the omega-3s (EPA & DHA), vitamin D, phospholipids, and fatty acids natural to whole Sockeye Salmon. 

The rich orange hue of our Salmon Oil comes from its natural complement of astaxanthin: the super-potent antioxidant pigment that gives Sockeye their distinctive color and protects our Salmon Oil's abundant omega-3s from oxidation.

In addition, ours was the first Salmon Oil supplement certified as sustainably sourced by the Marine Stewardship Council
.

We encapsulate our Salmon Oil in pure fish gelatin, and offer special varieties for special needs:

 Smaller Softgels (500 mg)
 
Liquid Salmon Oil for children and folks who may have trouble swallowing our 1,000 mg softgels
 
Lemon-Flavored Salmon Oil for folks who experience bounce-back.

Broiled or Grilled Wild Salmon with Blueberry-Cilantro Salsa
Click for full story and printer friendly version. Photo by Amy @ Minimally Invasive
This recipe came to us courtesy of the BC Salmon Council, and could serve as an easy, tasty Thanksgiving centerpiece.
 
Amy at the Minimally Invasive food blog picked it up from us, and contributed this great photo of the dish served atop asparagus.
 
We like the idea of serving the salmon and salsa over greens (e.g., spinach or chard; cold or sauteed).
 
It would also make sense to serve this dish with whole grain on the side ... we'd serve it either with quinoa or a mix of wild and "real" rice, with a sprinkle of dried cranberries added during cooking for extra color, texture, and flavor.
 
To appeal to the broadest range of tastes, leave the chopped cilantro, jalapeño, and onions out of the salsa, and instead serve them on the side for folks to add to their salsa or not.
 
Broiled or Grilled Wild Salmon with Blueberry-Cilantro Salsa
Makes 4 servings
 
4 (6 oz each) wild salmon portions (sockeye, silver, or king) or one 24 oz sockeye fillet, cut into four 6 oz pieces
1/2 large pink grapefruit (sectioned with membrane removed), diced, OR 1/4 of a pineapple, diced
2 Tbsps red onion chopped finely
1 jalapeño pepper, deveined and chopped (optional)
1 tsp honey
1 Tbsp. lime juice
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro (or parsley)
 
Preheat the broiler OR prepare the grill (be sure to oil the grate). 
  • Broil or grill salmon for 6 to 8 minutes or until just done.
  • Mix all the other ingredients just before serving, and spoon salsa over salmon or serve on the side.
