Natures Crops International (Winston-Salem, NC) has partnered with CoreFX Ingredients (Evanston, IL), a specialist in dry lipid-based nutritional oils, to introduce a new iteration of Natures Crops’ proprietary Ahiflower seed oil. The companies will introduce the new 70GA Dry Ahiflower Oil at the SupplySide West trade show, taking place October 31 to November 4, 2022, in Las Vegas (Booth #7251).

70GA Dry Ahiflower Oil offers the benefits of Ahiflower oil in a convenient powder form, the companies say. “The dry oil is free-flowing and uniform in consistency, creating a smooth and rich mouthfeel without compromising end-user product sensory attributes. This delivers the nutritional value of the oil where convenience of a powder formula is key,” the companies state in a press release.

Ahiflower oil is rich in omega-3 stearidonic acid (SDA) and omega-6 gamma linolenic acid (GLA) and can support heart, brain, skin, and immune health. “As a truly unrivaled oil source, Ahiflower contains more omegas than any other natural plant or seed, delivering the health advantages of fish oil, evening primrose oil, olive oil, and flax seed oil all in one plant,” the press release states.

“We are very excited by CoreFX’s efforts to innovate an industry-leading, highly versatile Ahiflower oil delivery system with a 70% oil payload,” added Andrew Hebard, CEO, Natures Crops, in the press release. “This brings superb value to brands and formulators looking to incorporate complete and balanced plant-based omega nutrition into under-represented categories like protein powders or meal-replacement powders.”
