Vital Foods Ltd has released the world’s first Omega 3 and Omega 6 supplement made from kiwifruit seeds in Europe as part of a German joint venture.

Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids are well regarded as benefiting the heart, maintaining brain and visual functions. Many Omega supplements are made from fish oil and considered unpalatable by a significant market niche, including vegetarians.

Vital Foods is an Auckland-based company specializing in producing supplements from kiwifruit extract. Vital Foods pioneered and owns technology that allows it to produce products without destroying the medically beneficial kiwifruit enzyme.
