What Is Omega-9
Omega-9 fatty acids are monounsaturated fats that, unlike Omega-3 and Omega-6, the body can produce in small amounts on its own - but dietary sources still contribute meaningfully to overall intake. Avocado is a well-known natural source of Omega-9, and it's the source used in Nutrify's Omega 3-6-9 softgel, delivered alongside Fish Oil and Linseed. Omega-9 is generally considered a 'non-essential' fat, but it remains a valuable part of a balanced fatty-acid intake, particularly for heart health.
Key Benefits

- Complements Omega-3 and Omega-6 in a balanced fatty-acid profile

Who Needs It
Anyone looking to support heart health as part of a complete fatty-acid intake, particularly those already taking Omega-3 supplements who want the added benefit of a balanced 3-6-9 profile rather than Omega-3 alone.
Recommended Dosage / Form
Included in Nutrify's Omega 3-6-9 softgel, taken once daily after a meal. As a non-essential fat, Omega-9 is generally taken as part of a combined formula rather than as a standalone supplement.
Science / Research Note
Omega-9 fatty acids, particularly oleic acid from sources like avocado and olive oil, are associated in nutrition research with supporting normal cholesterol levels and cardiovascular wellness. While the body can synthesise some Omega-9 on its own, dietary sources are still considered a valuable contribution to a balanced fat intake.
