Nutraceuticals World: Wiley’s Finest Introduces Algae/Ahiflower Omega-3 Gummy
Wiley’s Finest has launched a new line of plant-based omega-3s gummy supplements with a combination of Ahiflower oil and an microalgae-derived DHA oil branded as Algarithm, in order to meet rising demand for plant-based omega-3 products. The new gummy products are designed for both children and adults with focus on taste and texture.
Ahiflower is considered an alternative to flax oil, and contains several fats including ALA, SDA, and GLA fatty acids. SDA has unique properties which allow the body to more readily convert ALA to EPA. Meanwhile, Algarithm serves as a source of DHA which meets recommended daily requirements.
Some advantages of the new product include that it provides the full daily requirements of pro-EPA and DHA support from plant-based sources, from a traceable, regeneratively-grown supply chain.
