I’ve written about Omega-9 oils previously, but if you’d like more info, I just found out that Dow Agrosciences has created a website solely about Omega-9 Canola and Sunflower Oils. Some pdf files that may be of interest to you:

• Omega 3-6-9 Fact Sheet: What are the differences among omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 fats, and how do they add up for better health?

• Frequently Asked Questions: Answers to questions about Omega-9 Oils, what restaurants are using them, their health benefits, and more!

• Oils Comparison Chart: Not all fats are created equal! Click on the chart to compare the profiles of commonly used oils.

• How do Omega-9 Oils benefit your health?

The Ultimate Superfood Snack

The Kopali Supergood Superfoods. They’re loaded with antioxidant phytonutrients and fiber that, as you know, have been repeatedly proved to have a wide range of health benefits. But best of all, they are organic, and certified to be manufactured under Fair Trade.

Their organic dried fruits (mango, pineapple, goldenberry, and mulberry) are wonderful for snacks, or as a yogurt topping for a better breakfast. But for me, the clear winner are the organic, fair trade dark chocolate-covered bananas, goji berries, mulberries, cacao nibs and espresso beans. Antioxidant boost!

Am sure these packets will cost a bit more than the regular stuff you get off the grocery shelf, but I think it’s all worth it.
