Canatareus R Ltd is a Bulgarian company that manufactures different types of essences extracted from snails such as snail meat, snail caviar, snail mucus, snail slime, snail blood, snail hemocyanin.We can provide raw and lyophilized these components.Both material can be used in the following industries: pharmaceuphtical, cosmetic, food industry.Generally, snail meat is considered to be highly nutritious, owing to its content of essential amino acids, proteins, rich vitamins and minerals. Studies on the nutritional value of snail have reported that snail is high in protein quality but low in fat. Although the nutritional composition of a variety of foods has been known for many years, relatively little information has been collected on the nutritional composition of edible snail.Snails are low in fat and high in mineral nutrients, essential amino acids and beneficial fatty acids. Analysis of lipid composition shows a relatively high percentage of poly-unsaturated fatty acids. The fat of snails is beneficial because it provides our bodies with Omega-3 fatty acids that humans can not synthesize alone and therefore have to take it through their diet. It is very beneficial for health, because they balk atherosclerosis and thrombosis and have anti-inflammatory effects, prevent allergies, depression, and other diseases of the nervous system. The meat of the snails is a good source of calcium and phosphorous, two components very important for bone growth, and also of magnmagnesium, potassium and sodium.Regarding trace elements, their meat is a good source of selenium. Selenium is a powerful antioxidant protecting against heart disease and cancer (especially prostate), also contributing to the functioning of the thyroid gland and the immune system.Besides all the above mentioned, the snails are also an important dietary source of vitamins especially niacin.The products presented from Cantareus JSC have been produced from high quality Helix aspersa maxima snails breaded in ecological farm under stringy controlled conditions.
