Natural Nautic Menhaden Meal



Natural Nautic is natural Menhaden meal, made from only the freshest fish and processed at a low temperature. This assures a finished product that is low in TVN (total volatile nitrogen) and histamine level, and is high in digestibility. Mixed tocopherals are then used as a stabilizer, instead of ethoxyquin, generally used in Special Select Menhaden meal. Natural Nautic was originally developed for the pet food industry and to meet the demands for the organic feed market.

Natural Nautic fish meal differs from conventional regular grade fish meal in the quality and freshness of the raw material. The Menhaden are delivered chilled and whole to the processing facility in modern refrigerated vessels where they are immediately processed. This immediate processing technique allows Omega Protein to optimize the quality of the meal through low temperature drying conditions and stabilization at the time of manufacture. The product is therefore of high protein quality, showing enhanced digestibility.
