Due to their harsh growth conditions, Northern berries are particularly rich in valuable bioactives beneficial for healthy nutrition. Oils extracted from berry seeds contain high amounts of essential fatty acids, antioxidants and plant sterols. By eating berries we don’t benefit from all their goodness, as the seeds pass through the body undigested.
Berry oils in BerryOmegas™ are extracted from sea buckthorn berries, lingonberries and blackcurrants by using unique, eco-friendly CO2 extraction technology. Supercritical CO2 has the capacity to penetrate and elute both berry fruit and the berry seeds efficiently. The process is closed for minimum emissions: at the end of the extraction cycle, the CO2 is released from the extract and is returned back to extraction. The result is pure natural berry oil, free from solvent residues and oxidative stress.
CO2 extraction technology preserves all bioactive compounds of the berries in their natural active form. BerryOmegas™ are easily absorbed by the body, more efficient and healthier.
