Omega-3 enrichment of animal products
Faithful to its conviction that we can improve human health by fetter feeding the animals, Valorex has been offering TRADILIN® for more than 30 years as the optimal source for the omega-3 enrichment of animal products.
Why are omega-3 so important for human health?
Omega-3 are polyunsaturated fatty acids which are universal constituents of biological membranes and are essential to a wide number of cellular functions involved in immunity, neuronal function, cell growth and differentiation or lipid metabolism, to name a few.
Omega-3 have widely scientifically proven benefits on heart, eye, brain, mental and bone health and on the control of inflammation. Omega-3 fatty acids are essential to human beings as we absolutely need them, but we cannot synthetize them. Hence, we have to get them from food.
While individual levels of omega-3 vary across the world, most countries and regions have levels that are considered low to very low. This means that increasing the omega-3 intake is a major challenge for the global population.
Omega-3 enrichment of animal feed is a key path to improved human health
Eating fish is a nice way to increase the omega-3 intake. But at the world scale, there will never be enough fish, and overfishing is a huge sustainability issue.
This is why the improvement of the nutritional features of land animals is so key: eggs, meat and milk will have a better nutritional profile and in particular a better omega-6/omega-3 balance if animals are better fed.
When including an omega-3 source to animal feed, the omega-3 are deposited in the animal body and products, leading to the improved nutritional quality of animal products such as eggs, meat and milk.
The consumers of such omega-3 enriched-products then benefit from a healthier diet without modifying their eating habits.
TRADILIN® is the optimal source for omega-3 enrichment of animal products
Linseed offers one of the highest content of omega-3 among plants, as opposed to corn or soya, for example, which offer a high omega-6 content and poor Omega 3 content.
TRADILIN®, the unique selected and pressure-cooked linseed, thanks to its high content of omega-3, high digestibility, stable quality and good preservation is the optimal, sustainable and easy-to-use omega-3 source which leads to an excellent level of omega-3 enrichment without affecting zootechnical performance.
TRADILIN® for omega-3 enrichment of end-products:
- A 20+ years experience
- Customers in more than 10 COUNTRIES and 4 CONTINENTS
- + 250% of omega-3 in eggs
