Zooca® (Calanus)

An innovative patented marine oil based on Calanus for a sustainable supply of bioactive lipids

Zooca® is a patented premium marine oil, extracted from Calanus finmarchicus, a small crustacean living in the cold, pristine waters of the North Atlantic. Unlike fish or krill oils, the omega-3 fatty acids in Zooca® are naturally present as wax esters, a unique lipid structure that allows for gradual digestion and prolonged nutrient release.

This marine oil naturally contains EPA and DHA omega-3s, as well as specific fatty acids, natural antioxidants, and bioactive compounds that help maintain cellular metabolism. Thanks to its original structure, Zooca® offers an innovative approach to cardiovascular and metabolic support and inflammatory balance.

Today, Zooca® is recognized as one of the most innovative marine oils in the field of functional nutrition.

Why did we choose Zooca®?

✔ Patented marine oil derived from Calanus finmarchicus

Studied benefits

Sustainable cellular energy

Thanks to its specific lipid structure, Zooca® ensures a gradual release of fatty acids, contributing to a continuous supply of nutrients for cells.

Support for inflammatory balance

Studies show that Calanus bioactive compounds contribute to maintaining physiological inflammatory balance and protecting tissues.

Support for cardiovascular metabolism

The omega-3s naturally present in Zooca® contribute to maintaining good cardiovascular health and support the proper functioning of cell membranes.

Protection against oxidative stress

Zooca® naturally provides marine antioxidants that help protect cellular lipids from oxidation and support normal cell function.

An innovation in marine nutrition

Its unique wax ester structure allows for gradual assimilation, differing from conventional marine oils, offering an original and complementary nutritional profile.

Scientific evidence

In summary

• ✔ Provides omega-3s in an innovative natural form

• ✔ Promotes gradual release of bioactive lipids

• ✔ Supports physiological inflammatory balance

• ✔ Contributes to cardiovascular health and cellular metabolism

• ✔ Offers a premium marine oil from a sustainable resource

Level of scientific evidence

★★★★☆ Good to high

• Several clinical studies in humans

• Numerous scientific publications on Calanus lipids

• Innovative patented ingredient

• Documented safety, quality, and nutritional interest

Scientific note: Unlike ingredients such as Setria®, Cynatine®, or OVODERM®, specific clinical literature for Zooca® is more recent and still less abundant. A level of evidence of ★★★★☆ is therefore more rigorous and scientifically justified to date.
