Ahiflower Omega 3-6-9 Softgels
A True SDA Powerhouse Flax seed, chia seed and sacha inchi seed oils only contain ALA but no SDA. Hemp seed oil contains small amounts of SDA. Unlike these ALA-rich plant seed oils, Ahiflower® oil contains rich amounts of SDA. With over 18% SDA and 40% ALA, Ahiflower® oil provides the most ideal plant-based form of Omega-3 for optimal bio-availability and conversion to EPA. Conversion of SDA to EPA is much higher than ALA, making it a more effective plant-based source for obtaining longer chain Omega-3s such as EPA. The conversion of ALA to EPA is approximately 5% whereas SDA is converted to EPA with greater efficiency at approximately 30%.
A Healthy Source Of Beneficial GLA Ahiflower® oil also provides over 5% of the anti-inflammatory Omega-6 fatty acid Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA). Fish oil, flax seed, chia seed and sacha inchi seed do not contain this beneficial fatty acid. While hemp seed oil does contain GLA, Ahiflower® oil is a superior source. Ahiflower® oil is a true Omega 3 + Omega 6 powerhouse with ALA, SDA and GLA, delivering a healthy 3.5 to 1 balance of Omega 3 to Omega 6.Storage Information: Refrigerate after opening. Fully close bottle after each use.

These warnings are intended to inform the residents of California about the chemicals and heavy metals that can be found in a number of products. This may seem scary, however there is little reason for concern. The elements that have triggered this warning on our products include lead and cadmium, both of which are naturally occurring elements caused by the mineral rich soil that our products are grown in.
