Dallas, TX (1888PressRelease) June 29, 2011 - Omega-3 fatty acids are emerging as some of the most widely beneficial compounds in human health. The three omega-3 fatty acids commonly recognized in the scientific literature as having health benefits are docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and to a lesser extent, alpha linolenic acid (ALA). These omega-3s are derived mostly from marine and plant sources, typically fish, algae or flax.

First touted it contributions to cardiovascular health, omega-3 is now associated with the prevention of disorders ranging from eye disease to depression, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children to muscle degeneration in the elderly. Even as medical research is uncovering new health benefits to consumption of omega-3, novel production technologies are allowing for the addition of omega-3 oils to an expanding number of food and beverage products and product categories.

Omega-3 Foods and Beverages in the U.S. contains comprehensive data on the U.S. market for foods and beverages enhanced with omega-3. Historical retail sales data (2006-2010) and forecast data (2011-2015) are provided for the U.S. market. The report discusses key trends affecting the marketplace, trends driving growth, and consumer demographics and psychographics. The report profiles major suppliers and marketers of high omega-3/omega-enhanced products in the U.S. market, as well as innovative companies in both of these sectors.

Scope of Report

This report focuses on retail food and beverage products (excluding fish products) that are marketed as bearing high omega-3 or DHA content, which predominantly means products that are enhanced or fortified with omega-3 fatty acids. A number of marine and non-marine food sources inherently contain omega-3 fatty acids, such as fish oil, algal oil, canola oil, soybean oil, flaxseed, and walnuts. These and other high omega-3 ingredients are commonly added to food and beverage products to enhance their omega content, and the resulting products are those included in data and discussions in this report. In addition, this report includes as part of the market products such as breads, nut milks, and hemp milk that naturally contain omega-3 and are flagged as high omega-3 or high DHA, regardless of whether the product formulations are "naturally" high-omega or are specifically formulated or fortified as such.

This report also includes a qualitative discussion of the various omega-3 ingredients available to food formulators, including an overview of the marketers of these ingredients.

Fish products (fresh, canned and frozen) are excluded from the scope of this report, although fish products may bear high-omega claims to boast of their inherent omega content. In addition, this report generally excludes dietary supplements and infant formulas in quantitative discussions, since both are regulated very differently than foods and beverages.
