DHA, The Smart Omega-3
DHA is the key essential Omega-3 fat. DHA is particularly important for pregnant and nursing mothers, infants, and the elderly. Fish is probably your main source of DHA, but it is getting expensive.
Our ecoegg offers you a natural and inexpensive alternative.
We source our DHA from Nu-Mega, an Australian company who specialise in the production of high grade tuna oil. A number of highly regarded Australian food companies source special oils from Nu-Mega. The patented process applicable to ecoeggs, developed by Dr. David Farrell, uses tuna oil in combination with flaxseed oil. This concentrated natural supplement, free of animal proteins, is added at very low levels into our hens’ diet.
Two ecoeggs provide 100% RDI (Recommended Daily Intake) of Omega-3.

Ordinary eggs are good
Eggs are a powerhouse food – a concentrated package of high quality natural proteins, vitamins, minerals and some essential elements you require in a balanced diet. Eggs are one of the few foods that contain vitamin D, the sunshine vitamin. In fact two eggs, 100g serve, will provide about 50% of your daily requirements (RDI). Eggs contain the highest quality complete food protein available. Hence the words “the gold standard” in protein.
But our egg is incredible
We have researched and tailored a special patented diet for our hens, a balanced diet boosted with natural supplements rich in good Omega fats and certain essential vitamins. Ecoeggs are an ideal food for sportspeople, pregnant women and people who generally care about their health.
So it’s really no surprise that a healthy, happy hen lays a healthier egg. And we think they taste better too.
