Vegetarian Omega-3 Ingredient

January 1, 2011/Prepared Foods Magazine -- LycoRed Ltd., Israel, launched a new and innovative, vegetarian omega-3--Lyc-O-Mega 10 AL. This outstanding ingredient is free from fish odor and produced only from the highest quality DHA algae oil, making it especially suitable for vegetarians. LycoRed's Lyc-O-mega 10AL is designed especially for the bakery and confectionery industries. Trials have been conducted successfully in chocolates, crackers and bread that were fortified with Lyc-O-Mega 10AL. The chocolate tablet (5g), for example, contains 5mg of DHA, which is one third of the recommended daily consumption, without affecting its taste profile. LycoRed's microencapsulation technology enables fortification of baked goods which traditionally could be fortified with omega-3. LycoRed Ltd.,www.lycored.com
