MAKING SENSE OF OMEGA FATTY ACIDS
If you’re like most people, you’re aware that Omega fatty acids are
good for you—you’re just not sure why.
Omega-3 and Omega-6 are essential fatty acids. While the body needs them for proper heart and brain
function, growth and development, the body cannot manufacture them on
its own for optimal health. So they must come from the diet.
But there’s a catch—it’s critical to maintain the appropriate balance
of Omega-3 to Omega-6. Unfortunately, the typical American diet provides far more Omega-6 than is necessary and this imbalance can
prove detrimental over time.
But you can tilt the balance in your favor by looking for opportunities to add Omega-3 to your family’s diet. Eating eggs produced through an exclusive diet of Purina® Layena®
Plus Omega-3 are a wholesome and delicious way to add some of those
much-sought-after Omega-3 fatty acids.
A chance to give your flock something they truly enjoy would
be reason enough to try Purina® Layena® Plus Omega-3 pellets
poultry feed made with whole grain. You’ll love watching
them eat it up!
But it’s what you can’t see that makes Purina® Layena® Plus Omega-3 poultry feed truly unique.
It’s made with flaxseed, which not only supports a healthy flock, but also provides enhanced
nutrients in their eggs. While a typical egg provides a mere 65mg of Omega-3 fatty acids, an egg
produced by healthy poultry fed exclusively on Purina® Layena® Plus Omega-3 poultry feed contains
200mg of Omega-3.
And like all Purina® SunFresh® Recipe poultry feeds, you can rest assured Purina® Layena® Plus
Omega-3 poultry feed contains no added hormones, antibiotics, animal fat or animal by-products.
Just wholesome goodness for a delicious, homegrown egg.
300% more Omega-3 than a typical egg!
