Cranberry seeds are packed with nutrients that are vital to all living beings. Using revolutionary cold processing technology, we retain the highest possible levels of these nutrients when we extract the cranberry seed oil.
Cranberry seed oil is known for the following:
-
Ideally balanced omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids (EFAs)
- Oleic acid (omega-9 - the key component in olive oil)
- Naturally-occuring, heart-healthy phytosterols (plant sterols), including beta-sitosterol that have been shown to positively influence cholesterol levels in the bloodstream.
-
Powerful antioxidants, including the following:
• An unprecedented profile of all 8 isomers of vitamin E
• Carotenoids which give cranberries their deep red color and, like other antioxidants, help protect cells from free radical damage
- Phospholipids and other healthy phytonutrients
Omega-3 EFAs are vital to proper cell membrane function and influence nearly every bodily function and component. They have consistently been associated with heart health, and are also thought to lower the risk of certain cancers, reduce inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, support the neurological system, provide healthy joints and help prevent autoimmune diseases such as type 2 diabetes.
Healthy skin and hair is also supported by omega-3 EFAs as well as by the naturally occuring components of viamin E: tocopherols and tocotrienols. Tocotrienols are known as "super vitamin E" and can be 4 times more powerful than than tocopherols. Cranberry seed oil has significant levels of each.
There are numerous uses for cranberry seed oil, including:
-
Topical applications for improved skin conditions
- Encapsulated softgels for supplementation
- Food enhancing by adding to salads, yogurt, etc.
Other sources of omega-3 such as fish and flax oils are less stable than cold-pressed cranberry seed oil. This instability is what leads to the undesirable aftertaste in other oils that are not present in cranberry seed oil softgels. Cranberry seed oil has a "neutral" taste while the softgels have no aftertaste!
