I am intolerant to mackerel and anchovies: can I take the same Omegor Vitality?

I am intolerant to mackerel and anchovies: can I take the same Omegor Vitality?


Dear Monica, 


if you are referring to an actual allergy to this type of fish, I can tell you that what triggers the allergic reactions are the proteins in the fish itself.


The molecular distillation process of the oil eliminates any presence of protein in the final product. In principle, the Omega-3 concentrated oil in our supplements should not trigger hypersensitivity reactions in allergic people. 


Thank you for contacting us. 


Sincerely Dr. Rosaria Ramondino
