No heat: Our oil is raw and never exceeds room temperature! Every other cod liver oil manufacturer uses heat multiple times in excess of 300°. Even “cold-processed” cod liver oil gets superheated during molecular distillation and deodorization. No chemicals: Rosita does not bleach or deodorize the cod liver oil. Exposure to light and air is minimal: All work is done in a cool, dimly lit facility. No metal ever touches it: As reactive metals can accelerate oxidation, even the knives used to harvest the livers are ceramic. Not winterized: Most cod liver oil is “winterized”, an industrial term that takes the oil to well below freezing to remove saturated fats, waxes and stearins that will solidify as it cools. Without winterization, Rosita oil keeps the full spectrum of nutritious fats and is better protected against oxidation And it’s not fermented: With fermented cod liver oil, the oil is released after the livers have decomposed over a 6-month period. Rosita EVCLO is raw, fresh and produced within hours of catching the wild Atlantic cod. As you know, Rosita EVCLO is a source of naturally occurring vitamins A and D, and omega-3 fatty acids. It also has the full spectrum of omega fats! To name just a few benefits, omega-3s are known for reducing inflammation, preserving brain health and fostering child development. Vitamin D helps maintain the the health of bones and teeth and supports the immune, brain and nervous systems. And vitamin A is an important antioxidant that helps soothe free radical damage and thereby, inflammation levels. It also supports healthy skin.
