Jul 27 2011 ---Ocean Nutrition Canada Limited (ONC), the world’s largest Omega-3 EPA/DHA solutions provider and supplier of MEG-3 brand Omega-3 EPA/DHA ingredients is pleased to announce the launch of Adult Essentials Gummies Omega-3 and Enhanced Multivitamin, both with Omega-3 EPA/DHA. These two new Omega-3-containing adult gummies are a part of Life Science Nutritionals’ new line of all natural gummy vitamins formulated for adults – the first of its kind in Canada.
 
Every 10 g serving (four gummies) of all natural Adult Essentials Omega-3 gummies provides 100mg Omega-3 EPA/DHA, has no artificial sweeteners or colours, and contains nine essential vitamins.  The enhanced multivitamin is the first to be enriched with fish oil and is approved by Health Canada. These new products make it convenient to increase your Omega-3 intakes and help to achieve the Dieticians of Canada recommendation of 500 mg of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) a day (EPA/DHA) for the general population.

With more than 20,000 scientific studies supporting the health benefits of Omega-3s, consumer awareness and interest around the importance of Omega-3 is broadening. Founder and CEO of Life Science Nutritionals Stuart Lowther says that ONC’s MEG-3 ingredient was chosen because it is a trusted source of EPA/DHA. “We are proud to offer a family-first approach to business and with this new line of gummies, we’re giving families a great tasting vitamin from a trusted company, using a trusted ingredient,” says Lowther. “At Life Science Nutritionals, we believe that nutritional supplements and natural health products should be viewed as a compliment to an active and healthy lifestyle.”

“While awareness about the importance of Omega-3 EPA/DHA at all life stages continues to grow, Canadians are still not consuming adequate amounts,” says Jon Getzinger, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer of Ocean Nutrition Canada. “Incorporating EPA/DHA into a multivitamin is a progressive step by Life Science Nutritionals, and we’re proud to be a part of this innovative product.” Adult Essentials Gummies are available at drugstores and supermarkets nation-wide.
