Skate Liver Oil

Here at Zebra Organics we are pleased to introduce you to a dynamic new product Skate Liver Oil. This new product is available in either capsules and 8 ounce liquid. The Skate fish is classified as a cartilaginous fish in the same family as sharks and sting rays. Cartilaginous fish have cartilage instead of bones and as such they are a source for chondroitin a major structural component of cartilage. The skate fish is smaller than sharks and they offer a more sustainable and cleaner source for the same nutrients found in shark liver oil. Greener Pastures Skate liver oil is being offered as a safe alternative to shark liver oil. Skate liver oil is abundant in vitamins A, D, E, K, the full range of omega fatty acids, plus all the unique nutrients found in shark liver oil such as chondroitin, squalene, and alkoxglycerols. It is these other nutrients that offer numerous benefits to the body. Skate liver oil also provides the common benefits and nutrients found in other fish liver oils; omega 3 fatty acids. Similar to Blue Ice Fermented Cod liver oil, Blue Ice Fermented Skate Liver Oil is 4 times richer in Vitamin E and has 3 times the important brain-boosting nutrient DHA. Green Pasture's uses a proprietary cold process extraction and cleaning method to create Blue Ice Fermented Skate Liver Oil. Fermentation allows for easier digestion and absorption of all the nutrients found in Blue Ice Fermented Skate Liver Oil. And since no heat is used in the fermentation process, more vitamins, enzymes, and other unique nutrients are retained. These unique ingredients include Chondroitin, Squalene, and Alkoxglycerols and small amounts of Quinones, such as Co Q10. Squalene has antioxidant and anti-bacterial properties as well as being a potent carrier of oxygen into cells. By carrying oxygen further improvement in organ function through cellular metabolism, preventing the acidotic cell syndrome where cells become acidic, deteriorate and die due to lack of oxygen. Alkoxyglycerols are a components of human breast milk (0.1%), helping to build up disease resistance in babies. They are found in bone marrow (0.2% of the lipids) and the spleen, and are involved in white blood cell formation, important in immune function. Research undertaken by Swedish researchers Hallgren et al identified that alkoxyglycerols activate and enhance the bodies immune system and diminish harmful side effects from radiation therapies. Pure Clean Source The skate used to produce Blue Ice Fermented Skate Liver Oil is fished from the pristine waters of Alaska’s Aleutian Islands. So that you can be assured that each batch is as pure and clean as possible, independent testing for heavy metals and other possible pollutants is done on every batch and international purity standards are always met. Wisdom of Dr. Weston A Price Greener Pastures follows the wisdom of Dr. Weston A. Price. It was his early research of the diets and nutritional make-up of several different cultures that is credited with discovering the relationship between the healthy well-being of people and the “sacred foods” they ate, especially the oil from raw fermented cod livers. He found that many cultures relied on this fermented cod liver oil for a strong mind, body, and spirit. And, now Greener Pastures has taken this inspiration and applies it to the production of Blue Ice Fermented Skate Liver Oil.
