ROSITA REAL FOODS
ROSITA COD LIVER OIL
Raw wild cod liver oil, ratfish oil, and bee bread
Genuine, sustainably produced raw fish liver oils of exceptional quality, which are just as pure and authentic as it was for the Norse ancestors hundreds of years ago.
ETHICAL AND ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY FISH OILS
Rosita handcrafted fish liver oils reflect the need to preserve tradition and be in harmony with nature. Everything is done with respect for nature and the beauty of returning to our ancient traditions through the use of artisanal methods, handcraftsmanship and attention to detail.
RAW COD LIVER OIL
Handcrafted from wild livers using a very rare ancient extraction technique which uses nature to separate the oil from its liver, no synthetic chemicals or solvents are ever used during the extraction process. The oil is completely unrefined and produced under the total absence of heat, a process that protects its nutritional value.
Nearly all fish oil supplements are heavily processed.
This results in changes to the structure of the fatty acids.
Ethyl Ester and re-esterified trigylceride forms of fatty acids do not occur in nature.
The fatty acids in Rosita fish liver oils retain their natural trigylceride form.
The only truly raw fish oils on the market
FULL SPECTRUM FISH OILS
Raw fish liver oil is a time-honored source of natural vitamins A, D3, and long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, especially docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA).
Nearly all fish liver oils are heaviliy processed which strips out many of the beneficial vitamins, leading many companies to add back in synthetic vitamins.
Rosita Ratfish and Cod Liver Oils contain only the naturally occuring vitamins, not synthetic ones are added.
ROSITA COD LIVER OIL
Rosita® Extra Virgin Cod Liver Oil is the only fresh, wild-caught and raw cod liver oil in the entire world.
Straight from pristine Norwegian seas, it contains naturally occurring vitamins A and D, and a full spectrum of omega fatty acids, including omega-3 EPA and DHA.
If you do the research, you’ll find that most commercial cod liver oils 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, most cod liver oil producers will add synthetic vitamins in.
The Rosita family is in control of the entire process from fish to bottle, giving you the most precious and nutritional cod liver oil on the market.
ROSITA RATFISH LIVER OIL
In addition to containing omega-three fatty acids and fat soluble vitamins, Rosita Ratfish Liver Oil contains very special compound called Alkylglycerols.
These compounds support healthy immune and nervous system function.
They are being researched for a wide array of beneficial uses.
Ratfish are a non-commercial bycatch deep-water fish species which are seldom caught. The average harvest by their fishermen, for each net, is less than one fish! As a result, Rosita Ratfish Liver Oil is a limited resource.
There are additional reasons for the low production rate, which are related to their own strict demands for producing the highest quality fish liver oil possible.
They have limited harvesting in our protected and remote waters to special times of the year, when the fish flourish and thrive and produce livers that are beautiful.
This, in concert with the time-consuming, gentle cold extraction techniques (at the expense of yield), makes their production very specialized and limited.
In contrast to highly processed refined fish liver oils, their wild extra-virgin handcrafted ratfish liver oils follow the natural rhythm of changes in seasons and feeding cycles of the fish.
Therefore, each batch may vary slightly in appearance, flavor and nutrient levels, but will always retain its original nutritional integrity.
ROSITA WILD BEE BREAD
Rosita Wild Bee Bread is created in the hive through an entirely raw and natural fermentation process by wild bees in the lush, green tropical forests and Himalayan foothills of India.
It is completely raw and has never been heated.
Rosita Wild Bee Bread contains naturally-occurring vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants, amino acids, enzymes and omega fatty acids; and may help to support digestion and immunity.
This is bee pollen like you have never seen it before.
The acquisition of bee bread in sustainable quantities is difficult and involves its extraction from the honeycomb cells. This is because the bee bread is strongly compacted and firmly embedded in the honeycomb cells. It’s therefore necessary to collect bee bread by hand, a cumbersome job and one that assures the highest microbiological purity.
There are a variety of methods for extracting bee bread from a honeycomb, and a great deal of them have many disadvantages. Some of the methods result in considerable loss of nutrients and vitamins present in bee bread – proteins, amino acids, B vitamins, folic acid and vitamin C. Others are inefficient and cannot be applied to obtain significant quantities of bee bread.
That’s why the extraction method should preserve the nutritional properties and vitamins in bee bread and allow for a sufficient yield.
Rosita® wild Bee Bread is obtained using a natural, proprietary method — one that completely preserves all of the nutrients present in wild bee bread and ensures the highest quality product. No heat, chemicals or water are ever used to remove the bee bread from the honeycomb cells.
