Pure & Sustainable
Purity
OmegEssential® FORTÉ, Maximum Strength Fish Oil, has been IFOS approved. IFOS (International Fish Oil Standards) is an international program for verifying the purity and potency of fish oil products.
This includes a full spectrum of laboratory testing for contaminants (including PCBs, Dioxin and heavy metals) as well as quantitative testing to confirm the potency of the active ingredients. IFOS also tests for rancidity, a common problem with fish oil supplements that have not been properly stabilized.
The IFOS standards are established in conjunction with the World Health Organization and the Council for Responsible Nutrition. The fish oil blend in OmegEssential® FORTÉ received IFOS's highest rating of 5 stars.

Sustainable
Purity and potency aren't the only considerations. Selecting fish from a sustainable population is also a top priority. The fish used to create OmegEssential® FORTÉ are primarily caught off the coast of Peru. The fishing methods follow the FAO code of conduct for responsible fishing and leave the seabed undisturbed. The Peruvian government manages the fisheries through the Ministry of Production and the Vice-Ministry of Fisheries. They follow and enforce the principles of protecting the eco-system, preserving bio-diversity and sustaining their marine resources. In 2008, the sustainability of Peru's fisheries and marine eco-system was ranked "Best in the World" of the 53 fish producing countries surveyed.
