“Overall nutrition is important to nine in ten Canadians (88%) for choosing the food they eat.” National Institute of Nutrition: -Tracking Nutrition Trends 1989 - 1994 – 1997 – 2000 Vol. 17 No. 2002

Recognising that Omega-3 is a vital part of a balanced diet and good nutrition, we included this valuable nutrient in our Wellness English Muffins. Omega-3 is an important part of our diet at every point in our life. In children, it is important for overall wellness and normal development, in middle age, for health and longevity and for seniors, health from illness and the effects of aging.

Eating right can be difficult but, our light and delicious English Muffins will have even the fussiest child, and most reluctant adult, eating for health. Developing good eating habits when we are young make wise eating choices a life long practice.

For even greater benefit, our Wellness English Muffins contain Inulin a prebiotic that helps build strong bodies and contributes to the maintenance of good health.

Not Just from Fish
Who would have thought that eating just one Wellness English Muffin could provide you with 33% of the recommended daily allowance of Omega-3? Well it does! While fish is an excellent and recommended source of Omega-3 fatty acids, one of our muffins makes a significant contribution to your intake of Omega-3 fatty acids.

While the ideal amount of Omega-3 has not been confirmed, evidence to date suggests that taking from 0.5 to 1.8 grams per day of fish based omega-3 fatty acid or 1.5 -3 grams of plant based omega-3 fatty acid is what we need.

The Power of Omega-3
The importance of Omega-3 fatty acids to a healthy heart are highlighted by Penny Kris-Etherton, Ph.D., R.D, lead author of an article New guidelines focus on fish, fish oil, omega-3 fatty acids. Journal of the American Heart Association 11/18/2002.

“Omega-3 fatty acids are not just good fats; they affect heart health in positive ways. They make the blood less likely to form clots that cause heart attack and protect against irregular heartbeats that cause sudden cardiac death.”

What better way to get this important nutrient than to enjoy a Wellness English Muffin every day.
