What is the process to ensure purity of Omega 3?
- Refining - Removal of all major contaminants.
- Esterification - Breaking down the fish oil into individual fatty acid components for processing.
- Concentration - Molecular Distillation is used to separate EPA & DHA. This process is performed under a very high vacuum, (Oxygen free environment). Molecular distillation is chosen because of its rapid process, minimizing any thermal degradation of the oil.
- Winterization - Removal of the saturated oil content.
- Deodorization - A final steam distillation step is used to remove odorous components from the fish oil.
- Filtration - A polishing step is then used to absorb colorant material and other minute contaminants.
- Drumming - The oil is stored in air-tight, nitrogen purged drums.
- Softgel encapsulation is the most stable way to package and sell Omega-3 as it creates a barrier from oxidation. You may wish to store your Pure Omega 3 in the fridge if you live in a warm environment.
