Eggland's Best Eggs

Who knew?!  Omega-3 are necessary for the construction of the skin cell membrane.
 
Omega-3 fatty acids are called essential fatty acids because we must get them from our diet.  Recently, many products have appeared on supermarket shelves touting their omega-3 content. For several years now, Egglands Best eggs has been adding canola oil to our hen’s feed.  This step adds omeg-3 to the eggs produced by the hen.  The American College of Cardiology is recommending 500mg daily of omega-3’s.  An easy way to boost consumption of these vital fatty acids is to add Egglands Best to your diet. One of our eggs provides 20% of the daily recommended amount.
 
 Egglands eggs have two types of omega-3’s. In addition to the linolenic fatty acid that our body is unable to make on its own, our eggs contain DHA fatty acid which is an important nutrient for brain development.  Add a fatty fish three times a week to your diet and you are well on your way to a healthier heart as well as beautiful smooth looking skin.
