What it is

Omega Blend is a mixture of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, typically derived from plant-based sources like flaxseed, chia seeds, and sunflower seeds. These essential fatty acids are important for human health and are often combined to create a balanced nutritional profile.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add Omega Blend to foods to boost their nutritional content, particularly their omega fatty acid levels. It is commonly found in products like energy bars, protein powders, and some beverages where a nutritional enhancement is desired.

Health notes

Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are essential nutrients. The FDA considers certain omega-3 fatty acids as safe and effective for use in foods. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated various omega fatty acids. While generally recognized as safe and beneficial when consumed as part of a balanced diet, excessive intake of omega-6 relative to omega-3 has been a topic of discussion in nutritional science, though typical food intakes are unlikely to cause concern.

Allergen info

Omega Blend is typically derived from seeds like flax, chia, and sunflower, which are not among the FDA's 9 major allergens. Gluten is also not typically present unless the blend is processed in a facility with gluten-containing ingredients.
