 An ideal 2:1 ratio
of omega 3 and 6 essential fatty acids. Developed for people who want one product that gives them all of the good fats they need, without any of the bad fats they should avoid. The Truth About Fat Most people think that all fat should be avoided, but in reality there are two substances that can only be found in fat that are just as necessary to our survival as proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. Of the many kinds of fats, only the ones called Omega 3 and 6 have been designated as essential fatty acids (EFAs) by scientists, because every living cell in the body needs these fats, but the body can't make them on its own. A direct food source is always required. The key lies in ingesting the essential ones in the proper ratio. This isn't usually achieved as it has been shown that the average diet is far too high in omega 6 and dangerously low in omega 3. Another concern we face when choosing a source of EFAs is that the majority of oils found on grocery store shelves have been damaged by heat, light and oxygen and modern processing practices. These oils may no longer provide EFAs in optimum condition and may even be harmful. Udo's 3•6•9 Oil Blend Udo's 3•6•9 Oil Blend is a special blend of carefully chosen, natural, unrefined, EFA-rich oils that has a pleasant, nutty, buttery taste. It contains oils from fresh, certified organic flax, sesame, sunflower and evening primrose seeds as well as oils from rice and oat germ, providing 'minor' ingredients with major benefits. This oil blend has added non-GMO soy lecithin, which improves oil digestion and provides the building materials for cell membranes. Udo's 3•6•9 Oil Blend also contains medium chain triglycerides, which are easy to digest and assimilate and can be used directly by our cells. Udo's 3•6•9 Oil Blend is pressed and filtered in a state-of-the-art, low heat, light and oxygen-free environment to maximize stability and provide nutritional value and freshness. Nitrogen purged, amber glass bottles are filled with the oil blend and then nitrogen flushed to eliminate oxygen. The bottles are then capped and packed in a box to further protect the ingredients and ensure the highest possible quality. It is kept refrigerated in storage and ice packed when in transit when the weather dictates to keep the heat sensitive EFAs fresh. Seeds vs Fish Currently in Australia the words "omega 3" are synonymous with fish. Everywhere you look you see slogans encouraging you to "get more omega 3 EFAs from fish and fish oils". This recommendation seems harmless enough, but on closer inspection leaves some questions unanswered. The first is the wording - "omega 3 EFAs". EFA stands for essential fatty acid, of which there are two - alpha linolenic acid (ALA) and linoleic acid (LA). These are the respective parents of the omega 3 and 6 fatty acids families. They are not found in fish oils, however, fish and fish oils are excellent sources of the long chain omega 3 derivatives, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Both EPA and DHA can be made in the body as required from ALA. The second question is why this recommendation? Does it mean that fish is the preferred way to get your omega's? No, it's not. Oily fish will only provide the omega 3 derivatives, and is not a good source for omega 6 EFAs or their derivatives, so you're left with only one half of the story. A final thought on fish oils is what happens when they are processed. EPA and DHA are roughly five times easier to damage with heat, light and oxygen than ALA, the source of delicate omega 3 EFA. We take the utmost care to preserve the quality of our oils by cold pressing them in absence of heat, light and oxygen, then bottling them in nitrogen flushed amber glass. This is what gives us such a superior blend. Fish oils, once they are extracted from the fish are subjected to steam distillation and deodorising techniques at high temperatures and pressures, leaving them prone to damage. A thriving industry built on the back of the cod liver oil industry has left a nation mis-informed over their omega 3 choice.

Udo's 3•6•9 Oil Blend is compatible with all foods and can be used with cold, warm and hot foods (once off the heat source), but must not be used for frying, baking or other high temperature cooking. Favourite uses are in fruit or vegetable salads, protein shakes, yogurt, apple sauce and juices. Try it on steamed vegetables, rice and pastas and baked or mashed potatoes or add it to homemade soup (after cooking). Mix it with extra virgin olive oil in dishes such as hummus and tabbouleh or serve with balsamic vinegar for dipping. Add to fresh vegetable juices along with Udo's Choice Beyond Greens, for a nutritious meal replacement. Storage: Liquid (available in 250 ml and 500 ml bottles) Unopened bottles can be kept refrigerated for up to months and for over two years in the freezer (oil shrinks when frozen; the glass bottle will not break). Once opened, use within 4-6 weeks and keep refrigerated between uses. Capsules (available in 90 capsules per bottle) Store in a cool, dry place. Ideal for travelling. 14 capsules is equivalent to 15 ml (1 tbsp). 
The body converts alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) into docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and omega-6 linoleic acid (LA), some of which is converted into gamma-linolenic acid (GLA).The benefits are widely recognized, and omega-3 is everywhere now! Staples such as eggs are available with this essential fat, and even packaged goods like ice cream boast omega-3 on the label. But two important things are being overlooked by this latest marketing ploy: 1. There are two essential fatty acids. We must get omega-3 and omega-6 in the diet because the body cannot manufacture them. Omega-6 is just as important as omega-3. Don't we get enough omega-6 in the diet? You'd think so! Grain-based products may be a source of omega-6, but they often supply denatured and/or rancid forms of this EFA. The body has to work double-time to counteract the damaging effects of damaged fats and oils. The best food sources of the good kind of omega-6 include whole grains (not milled into flour-based baked goods) and raw, whole, organic nuts and seeds. 
1 Tbsp of Udo's 3·6·9 Oil Blend® supplies 6.5 g (6500 mg) of omega-3 (ALA). At the above conversion rates: • 6500 mg ALA 130-325 mg DHA & 325-650 mg EPA Udo recommends 1 Tbsp of Udo's 3·6·9 Oil Blend® per 50 lbs of body weight. For an average 150 lb person: • 6500 mg ALA x 3 Tbsp = 19,500 mg ALA 390-975 mg DHA & 975-1950 mg EPA If you start with enough ALA, the body will automatically regulate the conversion rates according to what it requires at any given time. Conversion rates depend on many dietary and genetic factors. A balanced diet will naturally optimize the conversion and your brain won't have to worry about it at all. Food then becomes less of a stressful "science" and more of an artful, enjoyable expression of living. Udo's 3·6·9 Oil Blend® is… • A certified organic culinary oil. What's in it? • Flax seed oil*: the richest vegetarian source of omega-3 *Certified organic "New" Made Easy Recipes: You need both EFAs, so why not choose one oil blend that gives you both? It only makes sense to incorporate Udo's 3·6·9 Oil Blend® into your everyday meals. Keep in mind that it is delicate and must be kept refrigerated. It should not be heated or used for frying, but feel free to add it to any dish after cooking. New informative
