Squalene is a polyunsaturated hydrocarbon. Its structure is similar to vitamin E, but instead of two isoprenoid groups, it contains 6 (isoprenoids are the most powerful natural antioxidants) and is also very present in nature.
Originally it began to be produced for commercial purposes from shark liver oil; However, there are also vegetable sources, highlighting the source of olive oil, which is where OLEICFAT obtains its raw material.
The squalene manufactured by Oleicfat comes exclusively from olive oil. Therefore, we can certify the following:

As it is a natural product, the purity of the olive squalene varies depending on the characteristics of the olive oil produced in the corresponding season, but Oleicfat always guarantees a purity in our olive squalene of at least 92%.
