The present invention relates to the improvement of food items through the increased utilization of plant-derived stearidonic acid. Many long chain fatty acids have been classified as being Omega 3 and have been shown to provide several health benefits, including heart health. According to the current invention plant-derived stearidonic acid (18:4.omega.3) has been incorporated into a wide range of food products by using either oil or flour processed from soybeans with enhanced levels of stearidonic acid. These foods range from oil-based products (salad dressing, mayonnaise) to dairy products (milk, cheese) to prepared foods (entrees, side dishes). In addition to improved health benefits the current invention provides food rich in Omega-3 fatty acids that have enhanced storage and/or shelf life characteristics.

La présente invention porte sur l'amélioration d'articles alimentaires par l'utilisation accrue d'acide stéaridonique d'origine végétale. De nombreux acides gras à longue chaîne ont été classés dans la catégorie Oméga-3 et se sont révélés bénéfiques pour la santé, y compris pour la santé cardiaque. Selon cette invention, de l'acide stéaridonique d'origine végétale (18:4.omega.3) a été incorporé dans une large gamme de produits alimentaires au moyen d'huile ou de farine traitée à partir de soja à niveaux accrus d'acide stéaridonique. Ces aliments peuvent être des produits à base d'huile (sauce pour salade, mayonnaise), des produits laitiers (lait, fromage), ou des plats préparés (entrées, plats d'accompagnement). Outre les plus grands bienfaits pour la santé, cette invention permet d'obtenir des aliments riches en acides gras Oméga-3 présentant des caractéristiques améliorées de stockage et/ou de durée de conservation.
