ABOUT MINAMI: PURITY, QUALITY TESTING AND SUSTAINABILITY Catch the New Wave of Garden of Life ® MINAMI Concentrated Omega-3 Fish Oils PURITY: MINAMI utilizes a three- step unique purification process, employing extensive quality controls to produce ultra-pure EPA and DHA rich fish oil. QUALITY TESTING: MINAMI oils go through rigorous third-party testing and have remarkably low levels of oxidation as well as undetectable levels of dioxins, pesticides and heavy metals such as mercury.
