Did you know that Omega-3 is a family of polyunsaturated and nutritional fatty acids? They are so-called essential nutrients that the human body cannot synthesize itself and must be obtained from food.
There are various types of Omega-3 fatty acids.
Some are called fish fatty acids since they are found in fish and shellfish, while others are from the vegetable kingdom.
Fish contain these nutritious fatty acids as the result, among other factors, of consuming micro algae that produce Omega-3.
The order value is approximately SEK 65 million.
Delivery will take place during 2008.
