Most health organizations across the world recommend a minimum daily intake for healthy adults of 200mg of omega-3 in diet, but with a growing world population of over 7 billion people, demand is at an all-time high, and innovative and sustainable solutions are required to fill this void. Long-chain omega-3s are types of fatty acids our bodies need to function and have many health benefits for the heart, brain, and immune system. Fish oil is a traditional source of omega-3, but due to limited global annual production, there is a deficit. Algae are helping to fill the omega-3 supply gap and deliver health benefits to egg consumers.
What Are The Benefits Of Adding Algae To The Production Of Laying Hens Feed For Feed Mills?
UK manufacturer of energy, protein, and omega-3 supplements UFAC-UK has developed a sustainable, environmentally friendly, vegetable source of the omega-3 fatty acid DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) using algae rather than fish oils. “Algi18DHA is a traceable, sustainable, high-quality alternative to fish-oil-sourced omega-3s. It contains a minimum of 18% omega-3 DHA in the biomass and is easy to incorporate in feeds. Crucially, this DHA translates directly from the hens to their eggs, bringing benefits to the consumer. “DHA brings many benefits, including blood pressure and heart rate reduction, and aids vascular health. It also raises good cholesterol and improves cognitive health.
How To Effectively Add Algae Residue Products To Animal Feed?
Algae grow very fast, so it is a sustainable source of DHA omega-3. The health benefits to humans are huge. If you look at the composition of certain types of microalgae, compared to other, more conventional European food and feed sources (Table 1, see below), you can see that the protein, carbohydrate, and fat content of the algae is just as good or even better, which makes the algae solid candidates as alternative protein sources. In addition, previous research has shown that algae can also have antibacterial, antiviral, and/or anti-oxidative effects. Some algae are also rich in omega-3 fatty acids and may contain vitamins and/or pigments such as chlorophyll and carotenoids, which can help influence the color of egg yolks.
