Sustainable:The seaweeds are handpicked during their peak growing periods, when the plants are in optimal condition and rich in nutrients. Unprocessed & raw:Rosita uses a low-temperature drying method that is gentle and helps preserve the delicate micronutrient content. Convenient:Rosita Wild Seaweed blend offers a better spread of micronutrients than a single type of seaweed, providing a more comprehensive nutritional profile. Description Ingredients Benefits Dosage Storage Rosita Wild Seaweed is harvested at a remote site, Pentland Firth, north of Scotland, which has some of the highest water exchanges in the world, ensuring that the seaweeds are cleaner and healthier than any other seaweed products. Rosita uses a low-temperature drying method that is gentle and helps preserve the delicate micronutrient content, and smaller milling sizes help to improve bioavailability. The seaweeds are handpicked during their peak growing periods, when the plants are in optimal condition and rich in nutrients. Unlike the common machine harvesting method, individual plants are cut so that enough remains for regrowth and reproduction. Harvesters work in small teams and access the foreshore on foot. The most stringent regulations are followed to ensure the local ecosystem can continue to thrive.

Nutrient Results The concentration of fat-soluble nutrients depends on several biological factors, including the size of the fish and the amount of oil contained in the liver. There are also seasonal variations related to the spawning cycle of the fish, climatic conditions, plankton, and other conditions affecting the codfish. Because Rosita EVCLO is a completely unrefined & unprocessed wholefood, the concentration of nutrients will ALWAYS vary from batch to batch. The Nutrient Results (fat-soluble vitamins, sterols & fatty acids) shown below represent typical values and ranges which have been obtained from analytical testing at the following institutes: NIFES (National Institute of Nutrition and Seafood Research )[20/12/2010] ALS Food & Pharmaceutical (United Kingdom) [10/10/2012] Eurofins Food Testing [19/02/2013] Nutrition Analytical Service (NAS), Institute of Aquaculture, University of Stirling, Scotland, United Kingdom [15/11/2013]. The head of NAS, Professor Gordon Bell, has over 30 years of experience in fish nutrition and lipid and nutrition related analysis and has published more than 184 peer-reviewed papers on fish nutrition, fatty acids, lipid soluble nutrients and antioxidants. The Chief Analyst, James Dick, provides over 25 years of experience in lipid methodology and is responsible for Quality Control within the Nutrition Group, the development of chromatographic techniques and is trained in all aspects of complex lipid analysis including HPLC, GC, GC/MS and GC/MS/MS. Extra virgin oil was also tested [as far back as: 15.07.2011] by the producer at ECO-Marine using a Norwegian Aquaculture Research Institute which specialises in marine raw materials and products.

Shelf-life of unopened bottles at a temperature of 0-4 °C is 12 months. For storage at -20 °C the shelf-life is 2-3 times longer. Shelf-life after the bottles are opened at 0-4 °C is 2-3 months. Testing has shown that vitamins and other substances found in Rosita EVCLO are not affected by freezing and remain completely intact. In summary, the oil must be kept dark and cold.
