Rosita Extra Virgin Cod Liver Oil is the only fresh, wildcaught and raw cod liver oil in the entire world. Straight from the clean Norwegian seas, it contains 100% naturally occurring nutrients, like vitamins A and D, and a full spectrum of omega fatty acids, including omega 3 EPA and DHA. If you do the research, youll find that most commercial cod liver oils on the market are highly processed with heat that wipes out the natural vitamins A and D and damages the fragile omega 3 fatty acids. To make up for the loss, synthetic vitamins are often added. Yet only the Rosita family provides truly traditional, small batch cod liver oil, made from real Atlantic cod (gadus morhua). This specific type of cod liver oil is backed by many studies and a history of health properties. Please note, Rosita tastes like robust, wild caught fish from the icy clean seas of Norway! Nothing is done to alter the taste or smell of the oil, and no flavorings are added. Whats more, only Rosita catches their own fish. The sustainable practice is simply hook and line on the companys own fishing boat off the coast of Norway. And only Rosita uses a rare, generationsold technique that naturally releases the oil from the handpicked livers within 15 minutes. This mild and swift process can only be accomplished with healthy livers from freshly caught cod and ensures supreme quality. When it comes to purity, only Rosita uses gentle filtration without heat. Its extremely effective at reducing contaminants, but does not alter or damage the precious oil in any way. Then, a tiny drop of natural antioxidants is added to maintain freshness. Each batch is thirdparty tested in a microbiological laboratory and certified to meet strict European and World Health Organization regulations for potency and purity (including heavy metals testing). Further, Rosita posts the results on its website for complete transparency.
