Omega Fruit Oils

Our Omega Fruit seed oils are truly living oils; derived from a proprietary cold pressing technique that preserves not only their distinctive fruity taste, but also results in a superior nutrional profile. Cold pressing extracts higher natural antioxidants, plant sterols and fat soluble vitamins, including a wide spectrum of Vitamin E isomers, such as gamma, alpha and delta tocopherols and tocotrienols, known to be beneficial for overall health. Our fruit oils offer a safe vegan alternative to Omega 3 fatty acids, traditionally found in fish oils, without risk of mercury, PCB and heavy metals contamination, and any unpleasant fishy smell or taste.

Our unique oils are also a rich source of linoleic and alpha-linolenic acid and carotenoids. When applied topically these compounds may provide photoprotective and hydrating effects on the skin. In addition our fruit oils are effective in the prevention of gingivitis, rash, eczema, and other skin lesions.

Omega Fruit Flours

Our Omega Fruit Flours are significant sources of soluble and insoluble plant fibre, complete plant protein, and a variety of potent antioxidant phytonutrients (plant sterols, carotenoids and flavanoids). These phytonutrients have been scientifically shown to promote human health. Our flours are currently used in functional food bars, yoghurt, baked goods, gluten free products and nutritional supplements, but applications are limited only to your imagination.
