XIA Oil™
About XIA Oil
Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) is the only omega-3 fatty acid considered essential because it cannot be synthesized by the human body and must be obtained through the diet. As interest in everyday omega-3 nutrition continues to increase, ALA is gaining scientific attention for its sustainable sourcing, its nutritional relevance and its expanding role in product innovation.
Benexia XIA Oil is a cold-pressed chia seed oil obtained exclusively through mechanical extraction without solvents. With more than 63% alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), it contains the highest concentration of omega-3 of any edible oil. Its naturally occurring tocopherols, phytosterols, and polyphenols contribute to excellent oxidative stability, helping maintain ingredient quality throughout processing and shelf life.
Benexia XIA Oil has a light, delicate nutty flavor that integrates into a wide variety of food, beverage, and dietary supplement formulations.
