Rosita Extra Virgin Cod Liver Oil, 150 ml

Product detailed description

Extra virgin cod liver oil, EVCLO for short, is an unfiltered oil drawn cold from the livers of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua). The fish come from wild catch in Norwegian waters and the oil leaves the livers by a traditional method that uses no heating, no chemical solvents and no refining. What stays behind is the natural fatty acid profile and the vitamins nobody had to add.

The oil is thick, deep gold and holds its shape on the spoon. Most of a bottle goes in winter, when oily sea fish is missing from the plate for weeks at a time. One teaspoon a day brings 1293 mg of omega 3, including 605 mg DHA and 443 mg EPA, so your omega 3 is settled in a single step of the morning routine. The flavour is properly fishy but short, and it goes down easiest alongside a meal that contains some fat.

Rosita bottles the oil in glass and flushes every bottle with nitrogen before sealing it, so the oil meets as little oxygen as possible. The 150 ml bottle works out at 30 daily servings of 5 ml.

Key benefits

• 1293 mg of omega 3 per teaspoon – of which 443 mg EPA and 605 mg DHA. EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA.
• 605 mg DHA per daily serving – DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and to the maintenance of normal vision. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg of DHA.
• Vitamins A and D3 straight from the liver – one serving covers 146 % NRV of vitamin A and 198 % NRV of vitamin D. Vitamin A contributes to the maintenance of normal vision and to the maintenance of normal skin, vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bones and to the maintenance of normal muscle function.
• Cold, traditional processing – no heat, no solvents and no mechanical pressure. Production runs to HACCP food safety standards.
• Wild Atlantic cod from Norway – no farmed fish and no blending with oils from other species.
• Glass, nitrogen and independent testing – every batch is analysed for contaminants before it goes into the bottle.

Dosage

Adults take half to one teaspoon a day, meaning 2,5 to 5 ml, ideally with a meal that contains fat. The oil is concentrated, so start low, every other day is fine, and only then work up to the full teaspoon. A 150 ml bottle covers 30 servings of 5 ml. Talk to a doctor before giving it to children.
