Omega-3 refers to omega-3 fatty acids. Fatty acids are the building blocks of fats, which are vital nutrients that are used to regulate blood clotting, build cell membranes and support cell health. It’s polyunsaturated, which is the relatively heart-healthy kind of fats that help reduce blood triglycerides (fats) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) so-called bad cholesterol. Salmon is one of the foods high in Omega 3’s.

Verlasso Seafood fish farms in Patagonia Chile. At Verlasso, we believe in being the best stewards of animal husbandry as we possibly can be. The fish are gently handled throughout their life and at harvest. There are only three fish for every cubic ton of water ensuring the fish have plenty of room to swim and grow. In fact, this is a lower density than salmon in the wild!
Verlasso salmon is on a mission to be the most sustainably raised salmon in the world.
Verlasso salmon was the first ocean raised salmon to receive the coveted “Yellow, a Good Alternative” recommendation from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch ® program.
Salmon as produced at Verlasso Farms in Chile. Verlasso salmon has a firm texture and a rich fat content that falls between traditionally farmed and wild caught salmon. It’s a lean, moist fish that is ideal for cooking and enjoying sashimi-style.
Salmon being Cooked in Cast Iron Pans. Farmed fish have the same Omega-3’s as wild when properly raised. We use a natural algae in the salmon’s diet to ensure they have proper nutrition. The result is a farmed fish with the same Omega-3’s and healthy fats as a wild caught fish.
