Udo's Choice Ultimate Oil Blend has been
recommended by two of the UK's most recognised nutritionists,
Dr Gillian
McKeith in her 14 day detox diet and Patrick Holford in his new
book, 'The Holford Diet'.
Experts agree that
it is vital to regularly eat foods rich in Omega 3 and Omega 6 essential
fatty acids - such as the oils found in Udo's Choice.
Udo's Choice was developed
by Dr Udo Erasmus, one of the world's leading experts on dietary fats.
It is a carefully balanced blend of unrefined organic seed oils along
with other nutrients vital for good health. And since Udo's Choice is
a food made only from plant sources, it is ideal for vegetarians and
vegans who can't eat fish.
What ingredients
are in Udo's Choice Oil Blend?
Udo's Choice Ultimate
3, 6, 9 Oil Blend is a certified organic blend of guaranteed
GMO-free, unrefined edible oils. This unique blend delivers a reliable
source of the omega 3 (n-3) and omega 6 (n-6) essential fatty acids
that are essential to life.
The Ultimate Oil Blend
includes
- organic flax seed oil
- organic sunflower seed oil
- organic sesame seed oil
- rice and oat germ oils
- organic coconut oil
- organic evening primrose oil;
- lecithin (guaranteed GMO-free)
- vitamin E
- antioxidants (tocotrienols) and
- rosemary oil.
Plus naturally occurring 'minor ingredients' as follows:
- 65mg of phytosterols/tablespoon (lower cholesterol and normalize
immune function)
- lignans (phytoestrogens from flax)
- carotene and
- tocotrienols and other seed specific antioxidants
- hundreds of other oil-soluble phytonutrients
Carefully chosen,
the seeds used to make Udo's Choice Ultimate 3, 6, 9 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
this 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 nice skin.
In the January 2000 issue of the UK fashion magazine,
Tatler, alternative health guru, Leslie Kenton, explains "I cover
my face and body religiously with Udo's Choice Oil."
The Udo's Choice Ultimate Oil Blend won the Gold Alive Award each year

Essential Fatty Acids
Fatty acids are the
basic structural units of lipids, which are dietary fats. The body can synthesize
many fatty acids, but those that cannot be manufactured in adequate amounts must
be obtained from the diet. These are called essential fatty acids (EFAs).
Fatty acids are classified
as saturated, monosaturated or polyunsaturated – depending on the amount of hydrogen
in the basic carbon chain of the molecule.
(The process of ‘hydrogenation’ – hydrogenated vegetable oil – involves adding hydrogen
to the molecule to make a polyunsaturated, liquid oil, into a saturated, solid oil,
such as margarine).
Many nutritionists and scientists report Americans consume too much omega-6 fatty
acids and under-consume omega-3 fatty acids. (The terms omega-3 and omega-6
refer to the location of the first double bond in the carbon atom of the fatty acid
molecule.) Including more omega-3-rich foods such as fish in the diet and
decreasing the consumption of omega-6 foods such as some hydrogenated oils, may
help maintain proper hormonal balance and overall health and wellness.
Essential fatty acids offer profound benefits. They help:
-
Influence hormone production, immunity and cardiovascular
health.
-
Maintain the structure and function of the cellular
and sub-cellular membranes.
-
Regulate cholesterol transport, degradation and
removal from the body.
-
Influence prostaglandins – hormone-like substances
that promote smooth muscle contractions, regulate blood pressure, regulate gastric
secretions, and impact other hormones – through a series of enzyme-dependent
reactions.
-
Support normal growth, especially of blood vessels
and nerves.
-
Keep skin and other tissue youthful and supple
by lubricating abilities.
EFAs are most abundant in fish oils and unadulterated seed oils, such as canola,
sunflower and safflower oils. Flaxseed oil is an exceptional oil, containing
both omega-3 and omega-6 in appreciable amounts. Cold saltwater fatty fish
– such as herring, haddock, cod, mackerel, and salmon – are also rich in omega-3
polyunsaturates and serve as the source of fish oil supplements.
The most important fatty acids are linoleic acid, linolenic acid, gamma linolenic
acid (GLA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).
Omega 6 and omega 3 oils may not be
suitable for individuals taking anti-blood clotting drugs such as Warfarin, Coumarin
and Heparin.
GLA (Evening Primrose Oil) may not
be suitable for people suffering from epilepsy. Fish oils may not be suitable for
people allergic to fish.
