The premium Omega-3 swine supplement formulated with Stabilized, Ground, Fortified Flax Seed -- to improve health of animals.

Omega Gold® feed supplement provides Omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants. It consists entirely of natural, human-grade ingredients that have no genetically-modified components.

Omega Gold® acts in grow-finish feeds to prevent oxidative damage of the resulting meat. Pork from these pigs has good color, stability and flavor.

Additionally, Omega Gold® is cost-effective to promote bigger litters of healthier piglets when fed to sows.

What makes Omega Gold® so effective?

• Contains more Omega-3 and more antioxidant power.
• Safer, more stable (one year shelf life guaranteed)
• Increases antioxidant level in the animal and spares Vitamin E
• Prevents dementia and other mental health problems
• No signs of rejecting feed, no bitter taste, no flavor problems
• Calmer animals
• Low cost

Adding 5% Omega Gold to your complete feed:

• 4.8 days to estrus for sows, compared to 7.5 to 8 days
• higher progesterone levels in sows
• improved survival of embryos in the uterus
• more pigs to the litter
• piglets heavier at birth
• better milk flow from sows
• higher level of unsaturated fatty acids in sow’s milk
• piglets heavier at weaning
• overall improved performance

Better than the competition:
You can have confidence in the Premium, Human-Grade, Non-GMO, 99.9% Pure, Stabilized, Ground, Fortified Flax we use in our Omega Gold® formula. Please see several reasons below why ENRECO®, INC.'s (Omega Fields' parent company) Stabilized Ground Flax is the best ground flax seed for swine on the market today.

• Proprietary stabilization technology provides a stable, ground, fortified flaxseed composition as a rich source of Omega-3 in the diet.
• Proprietary stabilization technology binds (chelates) the naturally-occurring lignans (powerful antioxidants) in the flax seed to those wonderful Omega-3 essential fatty acids. Therefore, when the flax seeds are ground, the antioxidants serve to protect the integrity of the essential fatty acids for a full twelve months.
• Proprietary stabilization technology includes the inclusion of B-6 and Zinc when the seeds are going through the grinding process. Flax seed contains a natural B-6 antagonist, so B-6 needs to be added to ground flax. B-6 and Zinc not only enhance the stabilization of the essential fatty acids, but also fortify the ground flax seed with the nutrients used by the body when flax seed is being metabolized.

Why Flax?:
Flax's claim to fame is that ground flax seed is nature's richest source of omega-3 fatty acids. Flax seed is also one of the richest sources of lignans, providing 75-800 times more plant lignans (powerful antioxidants) than most other plant sources. Studies in humans have suggested that, as a result of these unique properties, ground flax seed can have a positive effect on cholesterol levels, the autoimmune system and heart disease, and may also play a role in preventing cancer. Other oil-bearing seeds like corn, sunflower and peanuts contain omega-6 fatty acids, but flax is specifically known for its high levels of omega-3 fatty acids.

The addition of ground flax to livestock rations has focused on two main objectives - the production of nutritionally enhanced human food products and enhanced health, productivity and performance of the animals. Flax has been successfully incorporated into the rations of laying hens, resulting in the production of omega-3 enriched eggs (also see our product Ultra Egg). The Flax Council of Canada reports that these nutritionally-enhanced eggs now supply 4% of the Canadian egg market. Researchers have also included flax in dairy cattle rations in an attempt to influence milk-fat composition. Research is ongoing to make omega-3 milk a commercial reality. Flax is also attracting attention in the pet food industry as researchers suggest that feeding flax may improve pet health in a manner similar to their human companions.

Research in young growing pigs shows that feeding 5% flax is an effective means of increasing omega-3 fatty acids in pork. Researchers at South Dakota State University tested 5%, 10% and 15% flax in a corn-soybean meal ration during the final 25 days of finishing. Results showed that the level of omega-3 fatty acids increased in the final product. A consumer taste panel did not notice any difference in the loin meat or pastry made from the lard, however differences in the bacon were detected when the rations contained more than 5% flax.

Research conducted at the University of Manitoba added 5% flax to gestation and lactation diets, replacing some of the soybean meal and tallow in the rations. Sows that ate flax had higher progesterone levels, therefore improving survival of embryos in the uterus. On a commercial farm, sows that were fed the 5% flax ration delivered one more piglet per litter compared to the control group (11.5 vs. 10.4) and produced heavier piglets at birth (I.27 vs. 1.18 kg). The milk from the sows fed flax had a higher level of unsaturated fatty acids, resulting in heavier weaning weights (4.6 kg vs. 4.3 kg). In addition, sows fed flax lost less weight and maintained more backfat during lactation than sows fed standard rations. As a result, weaning-to-breeding interval decreased by 3 days for sows fed flax compared to the control group (4.8 vs. 7.5-8 days).
