Rosita - EVCLO Liquid 3 Pack

When choosing cod liver oil, it's vital to know where the fish came from and how they were processed. For instance, many cod liver oils available commercially are derived from fish caught in large-scale industrial operations. These kinds of fishing methods can seriously harm the environment, especially coastal ecosystems. [1] Another potential concern comes from fish sourced from farms, which might contain traces of antibiotics and chemicals used in fish farming. [2] Furthermore, farmed fish diets are increasingly relying on soy, corn, canola, palm, and sunflower feed. This shift can impact the quality of essential omega-3 fatty acids like eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). [3]

The well-being of the farmed fish used for producing the oil can also be compromised due to overcrowded conditions and farming practices. This situation can lead to stress and make them more susceptible to diseases. [4] Some people also notice that this affects the oil's taste and texture.

In contrast, Rosita takes a different approach by selecting fresh, wild fish from the pristine waters of Norway. The fish thrive in their natural surroundings, benefiting from cleaner water, ample space to move, and the availability of wild plants. As a result, these fish possess elevated levels of n-3 fatty acids in comparison to their farmed or cultivated counterparts. [5]

Rosita hand-selects only the best quality livers before storing within a dark, oxygen-free environment at a temperature just slightly warmer than the ocean. This helps the livers to naturally release the delicate oils without the need for chemicals, heat or pressure.
