Profile: I & W Research, Inc. is a producer and supplier of certified organic & conventional berry ingredients for the natural cosmetic, animal health & food functional industries. Our fruit seed oils & flours are GMO-free and are free from any artificial colors, flavors or preservatives, chemical solvents, or enzymes. We produce many certified organic fruit oils. Our ingredients offer unparalleled functionality & marketability for natural cosmetics and personal care/beauty products. Our oils are naturally anti-inflammatory, moisturizing & UV protectant, and contain high levels of both tocotrienols & tocopherols, the natural isomers of vitamin E. Our unique oils are also a rich source of linoleic & alpha-linolenic acid & carotenoids. When applied topically, these compounds may provide photo protective and hydrating effects on the skin. Our omega fruit seed oils are truly living oils and derived from a proprietary cold pressing technique that preserves not only their distinctive fruity taste, but also results in a superior nutritional profile. Our cold pressing technique helps in extracting higher natural antioxidants, plant sterols & fat-soluble vitamins, including a wide spectrum of vitamin E isomers such as gamma, alpha & delta tocopherols and tocotrienols, known to be beneficial for overall health. Our fruit oils offer a safe vegan alternative to omega 3 fatty acids, traditionally found in fish oils, without the risk of mercury, PCB & heavy metal contamination.
