| Heritage Food Group’s Omega 3 Enhanced Pork is produced from hogs fed a diet enriched with vitamins, minerals and supplemented with a plant-source of essential fatty acids.
The enriched diet includes the addition of high levels of vitamin E and the use of organic minerals which improves the color, texture and taste of pork. You’ll find reduced meat drip loss, improved meat color and extended shelf-life with our products.
To enhance the quality of our meat, our hogs are fed ingredients specifically chosen for their fatty acid profile. The ingredients we use are rich in alpha-linolenic acid, an essential omega 3 fatty acid that has been shown to have beneficial effects on human health. Initial test confirm that levels of this important omega 3 fatty acid increased significantly in our meat products when compared to regular retail pork.
