Is any heat used in extracting this oil from the fish?

Hi Carol, During the extraction process, no direct heat is used but we do need to keep our the oil warm at a certain temperature in order for it to flow during production process. I hope this helps.

No. The oil is encased in the heater. No muss, no fuss! It's a great heater!

Hello K.R. I found the answer to your question in the Q&A section of this product. Below is Young Life's response: "Our fish oil is sourced from anchovies and mackerel, which swim in the cold Humboldt Current in Chili (they are not farm raised). Thanks, Kurt - Young Life Research ". I hope this helps.

My guess is seeds are toasted before extracting oil. There is a smoky taste to the oil.

Hello Happy Rafters, Thank you for your question. The fish oil is made of the finest fish oil available from Deep Ocean Water fish (Sardines, Mackerel, Herring and Salmon), usually caught in the deep sea outside Norway. Occasionally it can come from other areas as well, depending on the availability of fish oil from the Nordic area. . The oil is processed in the US, using one of the best purification methods available, Molecular Distillation, which is the only current method that can remove heavy metals, PCB's and other toxins to below detectable limits for human consumption. The process preserves the quality of the fish oil and guarantees that no Trans Fats are created. I hope this answers your question and that you are satisfied with our fish oil. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us again. Best Regards, Jennifer Anderson Customer Service Manager

The oil is derived from wild caught Alaska Salmon, they are not farmed. I do not know if they use the whole body or just the liver.

The heating element is in the cord. I did not drain oil until it cooled but dont believe you would have a problem with it.

Have no idea what oil is used because the pump because this is a no-maintenance pump. This is my second Little Giant pump and the first several years in a Koi pond. Also not sure about the thermal protection but the first pump clogged with leaves regularly but kept on working well. I think it finally died due to general corrosion.

Yes. The oil is already in the heater. It is sealed in the unit and does not come out.

Their website has nice info regarding the fish oil and how it compares to other fish oils on the market. Very minimal processing, comes from salmon, if I recall correctly. I did some research before choosing and have been very satisfied.

I purchased this oil to use in making homemade soap. The oil does not have a fish odor and can be used for cooking if I remember correctly.

Yes, I have fried fresh fish in it. Depending on crisp you want it you may want to cook a little longer than the directions say. Use peanut oil in the spray bottle to spay on the fish and when you turn them over half way thru cooking spray the other side a little. worked for me

Yes, it is from anchovies and sardines, that is what it states on the bottle. This is the best fish oil product that I have used, there is no after taste.

I have removed the basket on occasion and fried foods however, just make sure you use a slotted spoon that can withstand the high temperature of the oil
