Top 5 most frequently asked questions
What if my order hasn't been delivered?
Unfortunately, it can sometimes happen that the carrier's schedule has run late and you receive your order later. If we know it won't make it on time, we'll let you know as soon as possible by email.
If our carrier doesn't find you at home, we'll deliver the parcel to your neighbors or to a PostNL parcel point. In the latter case, you can pick up the parcel the next day. You'll then receive a note in your mailbox with the location of that PostNL parcel point.

How does the 100% No Fish Burp Guarantee work?
Not happy with a product within 60 days? Then contact us.
You'll receive a full refund, even if the product has already been used.
You'll receive a free shipping label from us to send the products back.
We will then examine the returned product.
We fully stand behind our products. We know our products are of exceptionally high quality.
Omega-3 fatty acids obtained from poor-quality fish or algae cause a fishy aftertaste or nasty fish burps.
Ours don't. We know that 100% for sure.
How fresh are your products exactly?
Freshness means something slightly different for fish oil than for bread, but it is comparable.
Freshness is, alongside purity, at least as important for an oil. It reflects the condition of the delicate Omega-3 fatty acids. And that condition needs to be good, because a rancid (oxidized) oil isn't exactly healthy for you.
You can determine the freshness of an oil by smelling or tasting it. A fresh oil will never cause ‘fish burps’, repeating with a fishy smell. You can also measure freshness very precisely in a laboratory and then express it as a number.
In our field this number is called the oxidation value, sometimes also called the Totox value. It stands for Total Oxidation value.
Our Norwegian partner and we ourselves measure it regularly. Read the whole (long) story here.

Our principles
1. Clean fish oil
Our fish oil is made (from the fillet trimmings) of fresh Arctic wild cod that swims in the Barents Sea, located between Novaya Zemlya, Svalbard and northern Norway.
One of the cleanest waters in the world, far away from the plastic soup in the Pacific Ocean between Asia and South America.
All our fish products come from sustainable fisheries and carry the Marine Stewardship Council certification (MSC).
2. Fresh algae oil
Our plant-based Omega-3 products are made from algae. Algae are tiny plants that can produce Omega-3 fatty acids themselves, even on land in closed and controlled conditions.
We already make various products with the oil from the algae. Because algae are the future, there will be more and more of them.
All our plant-based products carry the VEGAN certification. This guarantees 100% that no fish oil has been used.
