megaOmega® is produced by a patented water extraction method using a select, unadulterated (no chemical and genetic modifications) wild-type food grade strain of Chromista algae (Schizochytrium sp.)
It is cultured free of environmental exposures in pure water with pure ingredients in quality controlled indoor tanks. This is a necessity to eliminate all risks of contamination so that it provides safe consumption for infants, the frail and the elderly.
The unique water extraction process for megaOmega® isolates the algae oil without the involvement of solvents, hexanes or alcohol at any step.
This is a superior method as most fish and algae oils are extracted using external enzymes or solvents such as hexane. Some algae oils are alcohol extracted, which is similar to hexane processing .
What concerns consumers is the possibility of the introduction of trace levels of residual solvents and pollutants resulting from chemical reliant processing.
Our water extraction process is environmentally clean – there is very little waste and no harm to our ecosystem – and is free of cellular contaminants, producing the purest naturally processed algae oil in the world.
