About Meaquor: content of vitamins A and D, presence of metals

Dear Paul,

our Meaquor product does not contain vitamins A and D, but only natural vitamin E (d-alpha-tocopherol) as an antioxidant. The oil used in the production of Meaquor is pharmaceutical-grade fish oil that has been ultrapurified and concentrated by the process of multiple molecular distillation. Multiple molecular distillation ensures both the total absence of pollutants and a high concentration of Omega-3 EPA and DHA.

All batches meet and exceed the rigorous standards of the CRN (Council for Responsible Nutrition) and GOED (Global Organization on EPA and DHA) and in particular have values for heavy metals far below the standards.
