Stearidonic Acid - Feed Ingredient
Stearidonic acid (SDA) is an omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) with the chemical structure 18:4 n-3. It serves as a metabolic intermediate between alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and is found in certain plant oils such as echium, hempseed, and blackcurrant seed oil.
In equine nutrition, stearidonic acid may be included in specialized fat supplements or oils to support omega-3 fatty acid intake. It is valued for its efficient conversion to EPA compared to ALA, potentially enhancing the anti-inflammatory fatty acid profile in the diet.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Stearidonic Acid as an ingredient.
