Waspu Oil

Rendered from Harp seals in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, the oil is further refined in a process known as ‘Bleaching and Deodorization’. This additional refining reduces the concentration of trace metals, oxidation values, PCB’s, dioxins, and furans, maximizing health benefits for consumers. Once the oil is encapsulated it is then bottled and prepared for market at our facility in Newfoundland.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) and/or Health Canada certify all facilities used in the production chain.

The oil contained inthe capsules meet or exceed all Canadian and World Health Organization (WHO) standards.

Better absorption. Seals are mammals, and the fatty acids found in seal oil are identical in structure to those in humans. This means faster, better digestion and absorption by the human body. Fish oil structure is unrecognized by the human system, resulting in a longer digestion time and overall poorer absorption.

Seal Oil Omega-3 offers a wide range of proven health benefits for people (and pets) of all ages. These include, but are not limited to, benefits to:

Cardiovascular health: reduces risk of cardiovascular disease; improves circulation and reduces the risk of blood clots; fights plaque buildup in arteries.

Joint health: reduces inflammation caused by arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Improves mobility and reduce joint pain.

Cognitive health: boosts central nervous system and brain function. Can improve memory and other cognitive abilities.Mental health: can help regulate and stabilize moods and reduce anxiety and the effects of stress.

Fetal health: aids the development of the baby’s brain, eyes, and nerves.Baby health: Omega-3 seal oil increases DHA levels in breast milk, enhancing early development; babies of mothers who regularly consume seal oil Omega-3 also show better immune function.Maternal health: Omega-3 fatty acid can help reduce the symptoms of postpartum depression.

Fitness performance: athletes who consume Omega-3 seal oil have experienced less fatigue, better muscle activation, increased VO2 max, and overall improved performance.

Senior health: seal oil contains DPA, a rare Omega-3 that has been shown to be particularly efficient at fighting inflammatory diseases (such as arthritis), promoting cognitive function and brain health, and improving nerve health.

Pet health: most of the benefits humans experience apply to pets too. Omega-3 seal oil is great for overall pet health, including skin, coat, heart, mobility, and immunity.

One of the guiding principles of all Indigenous people is environmental guardianship and the promotion of a balanced ecosystem. As an
Indigenous group whose members and communities are directly affected, we take the position of having a moral responsibility to protect, promote, and celebrate our oceans and the life they sustain. The hunting, consumption, and diversified usage of seals is interwoven into the fabric of Indigenous people’s traditions and culture. We seek to engage locally, nationally, and internationally to advocate for the humane harvesting, processing, marketing, and consumptive-use of seal products.

Qalipu First Nation is a vibrant Mi’kmaq First Nation Band established in 2011 under the Indian Act. With membership of 24,000 spread throughout 67 traditional Newfoundland Mi’kmaq communities and abroad, we are among the largest First Nation Bands in Canada.

Newfoundland is part of the traditional Mi’kmaq Nation whose territory extends from Quebec through the Maritime Provinces and into Newfoundland.

In Indigenous culture, the seal represents imagination, creativity, trust, and integrity. For hundreds of years Indigenous cultures of Newfoundland and Labrador have relied upon seals. A large percentage of the seal was eaten, and the rest of the animal was used for clothing, tools, and crafts. Within the spirit of this Seal, we see the ancient Mi’kmaq Eight-Pointed Star with the four direction colours symbolizing diversity and inclusiveness of all nations on Earth. Mi’kmaq double curve designs are painted on each side of the Mi’kmaq Star representing balance of nature, environmental conservation, and stewardship.
