The nutraceutical partner has received European clearance to market its high-load Omega-3 powder for use in supplements

Evonik, a global partner to nutraceutical companies for advanced food ingredients and formulation development services, has received clearance to market its innovative high-concentration Omega-3 lysine powder complex AvailOm for use in the European Union (EU).

AvailOm is the highest-load Omega-3 powder in its class with a minimum of 45% EPA and DHA by weight. A single, small tablet made from AvailOm can deliver the same Omega-3 fatty acid uptake as two large fish oil softgel capsules.

We look forward to supporting customers develop new formulations that are enabled by this innovative nutraceutical ingredient."
