Why Norwegian seafood is healthy for you - and your loved ones​

Athletes like Erling Haaland need the right fuel to achieve their full potential. To perform at a high level requires more than hard and continuous training. Nutrition is essential for the body to achieve maximum performance, fast recovery and to avoid injuries.​

Good source of Omega-3 and vitamin D​

The importance of healthy food does not only apply to sports heroes. Seafood on the dinner plate or as a topping on a slice of bread is healthy and nutritious food that offers several health benefits. Fatty fish like salmon and mackerel are full of Omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D. Cod contains a lot of iodine, which is often difficult to get from other foods. ​

The most important thing for a healthy diet is all about variety and balance, in addition to taste. After all, it's easier to find a healthy diet with foods you love.

Seafood from Norway is world–class seafood​

Our long history as a seafood nation stems back to the Viking era with fishing, catching and export of seafood. Today, Norway is the worlds largest exporter of seafood, despite being a small country in the north with only 5.5 million people.​ Norway’s natural resources is the reason for our long-lasting traditions and practices within the seafood industry.  ​
