Jedwards International, Inc. is a wholesale bulk supplier of Virgin Organic Chia Seed Oil.
Virgin Organic Chia Seed Oil, a natural oil cold-pressed extracted from organic chia seeds (Salvia hispanica), remains unrefined yet filtered with a characteristic aroma and flavor profile. Commonly referred to as a superfood, virgin organic chia seed oil is a popular alternative to fish oil as a source of essential fatty acids. There are many different species of chia with this specific variety, Salvia hispanica, being the only one known to contain such naturally high levels of omega-3 fatty acids.
Virgin organic chia seed oil is a preferred carrier for vegetarians and vegans to obtain omega-3 fatty acids from a botanical source. It has a 3:1 ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids and has become a popular supplement due to its naturally high level of alpha-Linolenic acid (ALA). This essential fatty acid cannot be produced by the body and must be obtained through the diet. Virgin organic chia seed oil is widely used in the food industry as a cooking oil and commonly found in various salad dressings and marinades. In the cosmetic industry, chia seed oil is formulated in topical body creams and lotions to treat dry skin and promote healthier hair.

Virgin is considered the natural/raw material with the characteristic color, flavor, and aroma. Refining removes these properties so the material is a lighter shade than the virgin material and often times clear, off-white, or white with little-to-no scent or flavor.
Refined, bleached (non-chemical process), deodorized. An "RBDW" product goes through a winterization ("W") process in addition to the RBD process.
Deodorized materials go through a non-chemical, high-vacuum process to reduce their natural aroma. While the aroma is not removed fully, a deodorized product’s aroma is less potent than the natural or unrefined variety.
