03 Oct 2018 --- Cold-pressed seed blend supplier Vitaminseed has launched a range of “superfood vitamin shots,” coined Seedshotz. The shots boast 14 vitamins and minerals from 12 fruits and vegetables, as well as Vitaminseed’s proprietary blend of cold-pressed seed oils and powders. Seeds are host to a spectrum of important nutrients: antioxidants, healthy fats (omega 3s and omega 6s), immunity-boosting compounds and even enzymes that can help slow signs of aging.

Seeds are particularly appealing for use in plant protein products and plant-based omega 3 intake for brain health, vascular and heart health and healthy aging. Innova Market Insights has noted that seeds are trending as snacks, with “Seeds of Change” tipped as a key trend for 2017, but this launch is a prime example of the varied options for seeds’ inclusion.

Vitaminseed Founder Bill Forsman was reportedly inspired to create the shots due to the nutritional potential of antioxidant-rich seeds.
“The source of all life begins with seeds, and we've found a way to deliver that incredible nutritional power in a drink,” he says.

Working with farmers, agricultural experts and food scientists, Forsman has helped refine a cold-press process that the company says preserves the intense nutrition of seeds and makes it readily available to the body.

Megaseed 7 is Vitaminseed's proprietary blend of seven cold-pressed seed oils and powders. The antioxidant-rich blend is infused into every Vitaminseed product. The blend contains the seeds of cranberries, raspberries, blackberries, grapes, black raspberries, pumpkin and black cumin.

Seedshotz are designed to make it easy to get premium essential nutrients on the go. The slim, convenient pouch is ready to "Rip, Sip 'n' Go" or can be easily added to a smoothie or favorite drink.

"We wanted to create something easy and fun for people with busy, active lives," Forsman says.

Seedshotz come in four flavors: Ripe Raspberry, Blackberry Burst, CranApple Zing and Goodness Grape. Vitaminseed products can be found online at www.Vitaminseed.com and at local US natural foods retailers.

The company further notes it will be expanding its product portfolio with SeedFuzion, a plant-based protein mix powered by cold-pressed seeds.
