Essential fats (essential fatty acids or EFAs) get their name because the human body must have them in order to survive and function properly. Although the human body needs these essential fats it cannot synthesize them from any other substance we eat, so a direct source is required.
There are many different kinds of fats, but only two essential fats: omega 3 (n-3 or w3) and omega 6 (n-6 or w6), both these essential fats are unsaturated. All other fats, such as omega 9 (monounsaturated), omega 7 and saturated fat, are non-essential because the body can produce them from sugars and starches.
When used in the right amounts and ratios, essential fats offer invaluable health benefits for your body.
What is Udo's Choice Ultimate Oil Blend?
Made with exceptional care, Udo's Oil Blend was developed for people who want one product that gives them all the good fats they need, without any of the bad fats they should avoid.
What makes Udo's Choice Oil Blend unique?
Udo's Choice Ultimate Oil Blend is a certified organic blend of guaranteed GM free, unrefined edible oils. This unique blend delivers a reliable source of the omega 3 and omega 6 essential fatty acids that are essential to life. Based on 15 years of practical experience with fats and oils, this formula is a 2:1:1 ratio of omega 3, omega 6 and omega 9, a combination most therapeutic for the omega 3 deficient, omega 6 rich diets, as well as 'low' and 'no' fat diets, common today. The Ultimate Oil Blend includes oils from fresh flax, sesame and sunflower seeds, as well as oils from evening primrose, rice germ and oat germ.
Udo's Choice Ultimate Oil Blend is rich in GM free lecithin, which provides the building materials for healthy cell membranes. The formula used to include medium chain triglycerides (MCTs), which are easy to digest and assimilate, but are not available in an organic form. These were recently replaced by organic coconut oil, which contains MCTs with powerful antimicrobial effects, and powerful antioxidants.
Udo's Oil blend also contains the potent antioxidant tocotrienols (from rice). The MCTs in the coconut oil are used directly by our cells as an energy source without increasing fat deposits. Vitamin E and rosemary oil, both potent antioxidants, are added to increase freshness and to act as scavengers of free radical molecules in the body.
Carefully chosen, the seeds used to make Udo's Choice Ultimate Oil Blend are pressed at a temperature of less than 120°F (or 50°C) and, even more important, in the absence of light and oxygen. Nitrogen-flushed, amber glass bottles packaged in a box and found only in the fridge or freezer, protects Udo's Oil Blend from potential damage by heat, light and oxygen, and helps to ensure maximum freshness and stability.
Along with the invaluable health benefits blended essential fats confer when taken internally, external application has also proven to be of benefit for radiant and healthy skin. Many beauty experts are known to cover themselves from head to toe in Udo's Oil Blend to replenish their skin and feed it the essential fatty acids it needs to look in perfect condition.
Udo's Choice Ultimate Oil Blend is a multi award winning product that has been proven to provide the perfect mix of essential fats that your body needs to function at an optimum level. Why take a chance on any other source of omega 3 and omega 6 oils when you know there is a perfect blend already available in Udo's Choice.
