Ahiflower® for Animal Wellness
Ahiflower® distinguishes itself scientifically as a superior, comprehensive, and balanced multi-omega essential fatty acid source, boasting superior quality and quantity of omegas compared to any other known omega-rich ingredient. In contrast to typical multi-omega 3-6-9 oils, Ahiflower provides complete traceability from a single, non-GM, regeneratively grown plant source. Unlike many alternatives that act as low-cost fillers without added functionality, Ahiflower stands out. It offers a powerful, single-source, plant-based multi-omega solution without any blending or dilution.

Ahiflower for Companion Animals
Ahiflower helps our pets look well, move well, and feel well. Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are essential for functions like maintaining healthy skin and coat, supporting proper inflammatory and immune response, and promoting cognitive and cardiovascular wellness. Ahiflower stands out due to its rich composition of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), and stearidonic acid (SDA). Various human and animal studies have demonstrated that SDA is effectively converted into the longer chain fatty acids EPA and DHA, and further helped to validate that Ahiflower is the best source for boosting the full spectrum of essential omegas for optimal wellness.
Poultry Wellness
Ahiflower proves advantageous for poultry, encompassing chickens and other fowl, owing to its omega-3 richness and high bioavailable calcium content. Omega-3 fatty acids play a crucial role in bolstering poultry health, supporting immune functions, and mitigating inflammation. Ahiflower's distinct composition, notably abundant in ALA and SDA, serves as an exceptional plant-based reservoir of these vital fatty acids for poultry, ensuring a more wholesome diet that positively influences their overall health and enhances the quality of products, like eggs, offered to consumers.
