Romega® from Norwegian herring caviar

A sophisticated source of important nutrients, Romega® is sourced from Norwegian herring caught in MSC-certified fisheries and produced using a patented process that gently separates the protein and lipids in herring caviar. Romega® herring caviar is a premium omega-3 source for consumers who want only the very best for their health.

INFLAMMATION

Romega® has confirmed natural abundance of specific SPMs - Specialized Pro-Resolving Mediators - and their precursors lipid mediators (PRMs). SPMs are important fat molecules supporting the resolution of inflammation, due to the highly potent (pg-ng range) endogenous signaling metabolites from the omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA.[1]

SPORTS NUTRITION

The multiple SPMs of Romega® also ensures involvement in resolution of post-workout inflammation (muscle soreness) without any side effects.[2]

BRAIN

DHA is the main essential omega-3 fatty acid in the human brain, and it is critical for normal brain development in children and maintaining normal brain functions of adults. Romega® is a unique omega-3 phospholipid source with a ratio of DHA:EPA of 3:1. Romega® also contains Lyso-phosphatidylcholine, which has been shown to deliver DHA to the receptors of the blood/brain barrier, where it is then actively transported into the brain.[3]

CELLURLAR HEALTH & AGING

Cellular nutrition is an emerging category where the idea of healthy aging is being viewed through a different lens. In today’s healthy aging market, it is no longer just about what you see as the signs of aging, but more importantly, what you can’t see. The membrane-friendly phospholipids of Romega® play a key role as a building block in the cellular membrane of the human body.[4]

PRENATAL & MATERNAL HEALTH

Omega-3 DHA and choline are foundational nutrients that are important before, during and after pregnancy. It is known that daily intake of DHA and choline during pregnancy supports normal brain and eye development. The DHA in breast milk is typically most abundant in the phospholipid form, so it is an advantage for mom to get DHA in the membrane-friendly delivery format that mother nature prefers. Daily intake of Romega® during pregnancy contributes to the normal brain development of the fetus and breastfed infants.[5]

EYES

DHA contributes to the normal vision development in both foetus and infants. O-3 phospholipids may also reduce dry eye symptoms[6] and prevent or delay development of age-related macular degeneration[7] and sight-threatening diabetic rethinopathy.[8]
