The history of caviar traces its roots as far back as its main producers, salmons and sturgeons, exist!
Scientists believe that sturgeon species boast a history of approximately 200 million years, which means that they appeared at a time when dinosaurs were still walking the Earth. This remarkable fish species has been able to outlive reptiles, mammoths, climate changes and cataclysms. However, as for the relatively modern history, the first mentions of caviar consumed by humans can be dated back to ancient Egypt. In ancient texts, there are frequent allusions to a concealed elixir of eternal youth, known exclusively to a privileged few. Some historians speculate that this mysterious substance may be referred to caviar.
Beneficial properties of caviar
Vitamin A is well-known for its skin-transforming power. Almost all expensive cosmetics contain this vitamin.
Vitamin B12 energises our body and is a vital player in fat and carbohydrate metabolism. This powerhouse vitamin not only supports digestive and nervous system health but also boosts overall vitality.
Vitamin D is essential for everyone, especially for those people who are not living in sun-soaked regions, as Vitamin D plays a crucial role in skin cell growth and bone health.
Vitamin E helps wound healing and blood clotting, slows ageing and prevents the formation of wrinkles. It is definitely crucial for those seeking to slow the ageing process, offering potent antioxidant properties that combat free radicals and promote skin health.
Lecithin is difficult to obtain from natural products. In the process of frying or boiling, lecithin is recombined and loses its useful properties. Caviar is almost the only product that contains lecithin in its purest form. Lecithin restores the nervous system, and it is also necessary for normal brain activity.
Among other things, organic iodine, phosphorus and calcium contained in caviar, as well as a large amount of very useful polyunsaturated fatty acids Omega-3 and Omega-6 as part of its proteins contribute to the improvement of brain activity and increase the effectiveness of the work of immunity system.
Two caviar sandwiches contain recommended daily intake of vitamins A, B12, D, E and lecithin.
