Optimally balanced omega-3-6-9 derived from echium seed oil
Echium seed oil is produced from tall purple flowering plants which are native to the Canary Islands and are also grown in the UK. With a unique omega-3-6-9 make-up, echium seed oil is superior to other plant oils such as flaxseed, particularly beneficial for supporting plant-based diets. As well as being a source of the essential fatty acid omega-3 ALA, echium seed oil is also rich in the rare omega-3 stearidonic acid (SDA) that is easily converted to EPA – the active omega-3 in fish oil that offers brain, heart and eye health benefits.

Balanced omega 3-6-9

Efficiently raises omega-3 EPA levels
As omega-3 consumption may be low in a plant based diet, echium seed oil is an ideal choice as it’s the richest natural source of omega-3 Stearidonic acid (SDA), making it an ideal alternative to fish oil. SDA is efficiently converted to omega-3 EPA in the body, usually found in fish, therefore raises omega-3 EPA levels far more effectively than other plant oils. Although flaxseed oil is the default for many non-fish eaters, it does not raise EPA levels effectively as the conversion pathway is typically poor. By comparison, 60% more EPA is synthesised from echium seed oil than from flaxseed oil.
