Möller’s Tran belongs to the name of the world’s oldest and trusted producer of industry-leading natural fish oils. Founded 167 years ago by Norwegian pharmacist Peter Möller in 1854, the inventor of cod liver oil as we know it today, Möller’s has since continued his mission in providing for the health and nutrition of many all over the world.

The Möller’s Tran brand is the most prominent nutritional supplements brand in the Nordic region and the second-largest cod liver oil brand globally. Each scoop of this high-quality cod liver oil contains at least 1000 mg of omega 3 fatty acids such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DPA), as well as essential vitamins like vitamin A and vitamin D.
What is Cod Liver Oil?
Cod liver oil is far from a new product. Used as early as 1000 years ago, it started as a fuel source for lamp oils and to season wood and leathers. It was later recorded in the 1600s that cod liver oil was thought to be able to contain various health benefits, treating rickets, aiding skin wounds and easing joint pain. Dubbed as the ‘gold of the sea’ by the Vikings, the health benefits of cod liver oil would get passed down many generations down into modern times.
What did Möllers do?
Where did Mollers come in 1854 if everyone was already using fish oils long before our founder ever came in? The answer lay in the quality of these fish oils. Cod liver oil, being rich in Omega 3 fatty acids, was prone to degradation and growing stale quickly when exposed to oxygen and impurities.
Low-quality fish oils were common back then as people had no way to store the oils and transport them, making it a product that was only available for proper consumption for the fishermen who caught the fish or those who lived near the coast. That is probably why people initially used it for lamp oils and seasoning materials – degraded oil causes more harm than good when transformed.
Mollers explored various ways to prolong the lifespan of fresh cod liver oil while retaining all of its nutritional and health benefits – bringing this essential health product away from the coasts and fishing towns of the Nordic region and all across the world through shipping and online stores.
Over the years, Mollers has utilised technology to streamline and improve our processes in harvesting cod liver oil, and they have finally ended up with a unique steaming process that maximises yield while maintaining purity and quality. While most other fish oil products add in extra vitamins due to the heat degradation in their processes, Möller has created a process to maximise and retain natural vitamins in our steaming method.
Mollers is also Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certified, indicating a robust method of sustainable fishing of wild arctic cod. If you want to buy cod liver oil with natural nutrients from a sustainable business or buy quality assured natural fish oil supplements in Singapore, Möllers fish oil supplement is the right thing for you.
