We are excited to introduce the latest offering from the Vitala family, Free Run (Cage-Free) DHA Omega-3 brown eggs. Now, instead of having to choose between a free-run egg and a DHA Omega-3 egg – you can have both. It's possible that we might be a little biased, but we really believe that our little egg, truly is the Canadian super-egg.
Local
Our free-run, cage-free chickens are raised on a local farm in Nanaimo, BC on Vancouver Island. Raised in cage-free barns our hens are given space to move, flap their wings, dust bathe and nest -- all the things that happy hens like to do. In addition to their freedom our hens are given a specially formulated diet that has been enriched with naturally-derived DHA Omega-3, flaxseed and organic selenium.
Benefits
Eggs have always been regarded as an excellent source of nutritional goodness as they’re naturally loaded with vitamin E, vitamin B12, vitamin A, riboflavin, folate and panthothenic acid. We’ve come to refer to our eggs as "nature's multivitamin” as it might just be time to start trading in those dozens of multi-vitamin bottles for a good old-fashioned dozen eggs.
In addition to all of the benefits that eggs naturally contain, each VitalaEgg is a source of...
- 100mg of DHA Omega-3
- 350mg of Omega-3’s
In days past, the only concern with eating too many eggs was their cholesterol content and it's believed impact on negative cholesterol levels. In recent years, scientific studies have shown that there is no substantial correlation between consumption of this type of cholesterol and increased negative cholesterol levels.1
