Ferndale, WA (PRWEB) February 19, 2008 -- WholeFoods Magazine has awarded Barlean's Organic Oils with the coveted Natural Choice Award for excellence in manufacturing the freshest and best selling flaxseed oil nationwide. Flax oil is the world's highest source of organic, vegetable based Omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3's are the fastest growing and most popular nutritional supplements today based on research supporting their use in the structure and function of numerous organs and tissues including heart, brain and eye health. While highly beneficial, Omega-3's must be consumed as fresh as possible to avoid oxidation and rancidity. Barlean's Organic Oils is the only manufacture that gently extracts their flax oil on demand, then ships 2nd day air to health food stores nationwide to ensure absolute freshness and peak nutritional value. Expanding on their freshness legacy, Barlean's has extended their product line with "Fresh Catch" Fish Oil containing Omega-3, EPA and DHA. Barlean's fish oils are ultra-purified and molecularly distilled to eliminate any possible mercury or other heavy metals. As with their famous flax oil, Barlean's protects the freshness of their delicate fish oil by packaging it in special black, light-resistant bottles. Further, Barlean's is the only manufacture to insist that their liquid "Fresh Catch" fish oil be refrigerated at the point of sale. In addition, anti-oxidants are added to the oil to curb oxidation The latest and biggest innovation to the Barlean's flax and fish oil lines is the infusion of all-natural flavors to their products.

According to Barlean's President Jim Springer, "people are absolutely amazed that we have been able to completely eliminate any fishy taste – better yet, they actually enjoy our vivid lemon and orange flavors."

Barlean's products can be found in WholeFoods, Wild Oats, Vitamin Shoppe and health food stores nationwide. For more information visit www.barleans.com.
