NUTRICAN
would like to meet companies who are seeking
a supply of pharmaceutical-grade high concentrated omega-3 seal oil, processed nutritional supplements made by Nano-Technology, such as Nano-Flax (Sprouted Flax Omega-3) and Nano-Calcium.
We would
like to work with such a company in expanding
our product lines, to ensure that our
investments are market-driven and the
customer is pleased with our products.
There is a need for a centralized organization to help coordinate efforts in research, marketing and general advocacy about the health benefits of seal oil, with a view toward developing a coherent policy, ensuring action and avoiding duplication of efforts nationwide. With media interest being limited, there is a need to develop and disseminate communications materials. A co-ordinated organization could also be helpful to the industry in responding to opposition to the seal hunt.
The health benefits of seal oil must be demonstrated in trials on humans. The object of these trials would be to show the health benefits attainable through seal oil dietary supplementation over a short period of time and to identify the amounts of seal oil, including the proportions of DPA, DHA, EPA and ALA, that should be administered. Results from a small trial could be expected to generate interest in funding and conducting further trials.
NUTRICAN continually seeking research
collaborations, particularly with companies
interested in essential fatty acid nutrition
and other marine by-product research. It is necessary to identify allies. For example, joining forces with groups interested in preventive healthcare could be a good way to promote seal oil as part of preventive healthcare with associated cost-savings to the Canadian public. It is necessary to identify such linkages and seek ways to make the demand for seal oil grow.
