Convinced that Romega is the right product for her

We meet Grete at the newly renovated sea hut of the Bakken family at Hareid. It has taken time to get it in order, but now it can finally be used in its entirety. From the hut you have a panoramic view of the Sunnmøre Alps and the Sulafjord. Just off the coast, the herring used in Romega is caught by local fishermen.

Arctic Bioscience is located in the local area here in Sunnmøre, and I have been aware that they have been researching and working on the development of marine ingredients for several years. I first learned about Romega a few years ago, when a friend recommended it to me.

Wanted a supplement for the heart

Grete says she wanted an omega-3 product that helps maintain normal heart function. She learned that Romega contains the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, which contribute to good heart health.*

– It is important for me to maintain good health, especially because I am a busy woman. In my everyday life I am physically active, and I keep fit through walking, hiking and cycling. So I mainly wanted an omega-3 product for my heart health.* says Grete.

She says that she chose Romega because it differs from many other omega-3 supplements, as Romega contains phospholipids – a special type of fat.

– I learned that Romega contains a different type of fat than many other omega-3 supplements; a type of fat that can be mixed with water, which helps the omega-3 to be absorbed faster into the body. ** I think this is positive. Says Grete

A product with local relevance

Grete appreciates that the product is locally developed in Sunnmøre, with raw materials from herring fished along the coast of Norway.

– I really like Romega because it is a quality-assured omega-3 product made from roe from Norwegian spring-spawning herring. I have faith in the expertise of the people behind Romega, so I feel confident in the product and the benefits it can give me. I am completely convinced that Romega is the right product for me, says Grete.

We would like to thank Grete for sharing her story with us, and are happy that Romega is a part of her everyday life.
