Healthy Heart, Healthy Planet

• Comparable Omega-3s: Wildtype products mimic the nutritional profile of conventional fish, supplying omega-3 fatty acids (similar to wild Coho) for cardiovascular health, lower triglycerides and reduced inflammation.
• Clean Source of High-Quality Protein: A reliable source of lean, easily digestible animal protein with essential amino acids for muscle maintenance, tissue repair and metabolic health.
• Absence of Contaminants: Free from heavy metals (mercury), microplastics, industrial toxins and agricultural run-off byproducts often detected in wild and farmed fish.
• No Antibiotic Residues: Versus traditional aquaculture which relies on antibiotics to manage disease outbreaks, cell-cultivated production requires no antibiotics, thereby reducing exposure to pharmaceutical residue.
• Allergen and Parasite Safety: No risk of waterborne parasites (such as anisakis worms in raw wild fish), and reduced unwanted biological variables for safer raw consumption (sushi and sashimi).
