Origin

Ratfish Liver Oil has been widely used for centuries as a complementary medicine in Scandinavian countries, where it is often described as the ‘Gold of the ocean’. Rosita Ratfish Liver Oil™ contains a wide spectrum of naturally occurring fatty acids, fat soluble nutrients and antioxidants. It is an exceptionally rich source of naturally occurring biologically active alkylglycerol lipids. No heat or mechanical devices are used to extract this oil, only nature’s ancient principles. Rosita RLO has a mild, buttery taste – less fishy than cod liver oil. The oil will get absorbed easily with the taste dissipating quickly.

Rosita Ratfish Liver Oil contains more than 33% Alkylglycerol content which is a natural antioxidant. It contains omega-3, omega-4, omega-6, omega-7, omega-9 and omega-11 fatty acids in their naturally occurring forms as well as a naturally low ratio of vitamin A to vitamin D. It also contains natural antioxidants such as squalene that protect cells against free radical damage.

Rosita RLO liquid is a full spectrum fish liver oil. Unlike refined fish oils, RLO contains many different fatty acids that thicken and separate when refrigerated. When chilled, the stearins, waxes and triglycerides may appear as particles, as a film, cloudy, or thick like gelatin. This is normal for a fresh, wild and raw fish liver oil. You may take the oils out of the fridge 3-5 minutes before use to allow them to evenly mix and to permit the efficient use of the dropper. This is particularly important for the 10ml dropper.

Questions & Answers

How is the oil extracted from the ratfish liver?

We prefer to keep our fish oils as natural and pure as possible. We hold ourselves to a high standard to ensure that our customers get premium extra-virgin oils. So, we do not use any heat, pressure or metal containers or treatment when collecting and processing our oils. This helps to keep the delicate oils pure. Once the livers have been carefully removed from the fish, each liver is inspected for quality. The best livers are then stored within a dark, oxygen-free environment. Within temperatures slightly higher than the ocean, the livers naturally release the oil. We meticulously regulate this step to ensure that the oil is pure and retains its nutrients. Any contaminants are removed using a patented method with the help of natural materials. Once again, no chemicals or heat are used in this removal process. Finally, the oil is stored within a cold, dark environment without oxygen. This keeps the oil fresh and it can be tested for purity prior to being bottled

Is Rosita RFLO safe to use?

Is rosita RFLO from a sustainable source?

Rosita Real Foods’ fishermen utilise authentic, traditional methods to catch the ratfish. Small fishing boats are used so that less damage is done to the environment than larger, commercial fishing vessels. The fish are caught using the long-line fishing technique, which is beneficial as it limits bycatch, and is sea-bird friendly, minimising the impact on our ecosystem. Additionally, long-line fishing allows us to release any juvenile fish that are caught. Along with our sustainable techniques, we adhere to fishing quotas set by the Norwegian government. These quotas help to ensure that overfishing does not occur, and the survival of the fish is safeguarded.

What are the benefits of RFLO?
