Plant-based multi-omega supplements are made with Ahiflower® – a groundbreaking vegan alternative to fish oil – and come in environmentally-friendly compostable packaging
LAVAL, QC, March 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Neptune Wellness Solutions Inc. ("Neptune" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: NEPT) (TSX: NEPT), a diversified and fully integrated health and wellness company focused on plant-based, sustainable and purpose-driven lifestyle brands, today announced the launch of Forest Remedies Multi Omega 3-6-9, a line of innovative supplements made with Ahiflower oil, in Sprouts Farmers Market stores nationwide. A plant-based, vegan alternative to fish oil, Ahiflower oil delivers more quality omegas than other natural plants or seed oils, proven up to four times more effective than flaxseed oil*. The Forest Remedies Multi Omega product line also comes in compostable, plastic-free packaging.
"Neptune Wellness is thrilled to launch Forest Remedies Multi-Omega 3-6-9 supplements to offer consumers a cleaner plant-based effective source of omega fatty acids as an alternative to supplements derived from traditional fish-based oils," said Michael Cammarata, Chief Executive Officer and President of Neptune. "We're proud to prioritize clean, quality, plant-based products, and expect Forest Remedies to make great waves as consumers continue championing brands they feel good about. National distribution with Sprouts Farmers Market marks another important milestone in Neptune's progression into a fully-integrated consumer packaged goods company with a diverse suite of better-for-you brands, available in many of the country's largest retail chains."
Forest Remedies Multi-Omega supplements contain a balanced blend of 100 percent plant-based omega 3, 6 and 9 fatty acids to support heart, brain, skin and joint health† – with no unpleasant aftertaste or fish smell. And it's clinically-proven to be up to four times more effective than flaxseed oil as a source of Omega 3.*† Ahiflower contains high amounts of Omega 3 SDA (stearidonic acid) which the body can use more efficiently than Omega 3 ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) found in flax, chia, hemp, and other plant and seed oils.†
Vegan, gluten-free, cruelty-free, non-GMO-certified, made in the USA and third-party lab tested for safety, purity and potency, SKUs at launch include:
- Multi Omega 3-6-9 Softgels
- Multi Omega 3-6-9 Gummies in natural Orange Blossom flavor
"When formulating this product, we wanted to offer consumers all of the benefits of omegas without the fishy aftertaste of a fish oil supplement, while also working to improve the environment we all live in," said Sibel Uslu Ph.D., Vice President of Product Development at Neptune. "We're very proud to launch Forest Remedies multi-omega supplements that check all the boxes—they taste great, are highly effective, pose no known marine or ecological threat, and come in environmentally-friendly compostable packaging—and make them more readily available through Sprouts Markets."
As part of Neptune Wellness' dedication to plant-based products, a portion of the proceeds from the sales of Forest Remedies products will be donated to One Tree Planted, a non-profit tree planting charity, to help rebuild forests around the world.
