Omega-3 Eggs – Ontario

Eggs that fit your food philosophy.

GoldEgg Omega-3 eggs contain 10x more Omega-3 than regular eggs. Omega-3 enriched eggs are laid by Ontario-raised hens fed a diet that includes flaxseed, a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids.
Available in sizes medium, large and extra large.

Omega-3 Supports Heart Health

Omega-3 polyunsaturates help to improve heart health by slightly lowering blood pressure. They may also help to reduce the risk of irregular heartbeat (or arrhythmia).

These benefits come from Omega-3’s ability to reduce triglycerides, a type of fat in the blood. This, in turn, contributes to the slowing down of plaque build up in the arteries.¹

Omega-3 Helps Brain Development

Omega-3 polyunsaturates are essential fatty acids that are important to the healthy development of the brain, nerves and eyes.
5 x more Vitamin E* for Aging Cell Protection

Each large GoldEgg Omega-3 egg contains 50% of the recommended daily value of Vitamin E.

Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that helps to protect the body’s cells from aging caused by damage from free radicals. This may help to protect against some cancers.¹

*Each 53 g large Omega enriched egg provides 50% of the recommended daily value of Vitamin E, compared to 10% contained in non-enriched 53 g large egg.

Folate and Vitamin B12 are involved in the formation¹ and health maintenance of red blood cells².

Each large GoldEgg Omega-3 egg provides 80% of the recommended daily value of Vitamin B12 and 20% of the recommended daily value of folate.
