The Groovy Food Company is the creation of Rosie and Guy Hayward. Rosie was working as a conservation officer when her increasingly painful back problem was diagnosed as Ankylosing Spondylitis. At 27 she found that medication wasn’t touching her symptoms, and after several stays in hospital she was also diagnosed with Reiters Syndrome, which is an auto immune condition causing inflammation in different parts of the body.
“It’s important to stress that The Groovy Food Company has been created for the right reasons. Seed oil helped me live my life to the full again. Its benefits are remarkable not just for inflammation but also for all round general health for the young and old. To have a company formed due to such a positive experience of the product is really important to me.” For further information
contact: Now for the science bit: Cool Oil is a blend of organic seed oils, that gives, what we believe, is the optimum ratio of Omega 3, 6 & 9 EFAs (essential fatty acids) that our bodies require. We developed this by researching many sources to find out what is commonly accepted as the best ratio and hence Cool Oil offers a blend of Omega 3, 6 and 9 in the recommended 2:1:1 ratio. The need for Omega 3, 6 & 9 in our diets has been highlighted recently in many articles. They are known as essential fats as our bodies cannot create them on their own, we have to take them in from our food. Oily fish is one of the best natural sources but not everyone likes fish or the idea of fish oil. Organically grown seeds such as flax, hemp & pumpkin seed contain the EFA's we need as well. There has been more and more research pointing towards the benefits of EFAs in helping to reduce joint stiffness and pain, maintain brain function, protect against heart disease, improve skin condition, raise energy levels and strengthen the immune system. The brain, for instance, is made up of fat and it is the good fats (EFAs) that it needs to develop and be maintained properly. These are just some of the many benefits that research has shown may be experienced from taking Omega 3, 6 and 9, in the correct balance on a regular basis. |

The
Groovy Food Company has launched its first product, which will aim
to make you bendier than a snake’s boogie. Cool Oil is a natural
seed oil blend of flax, hemp, pumpkin and evening primrose oils.
It’s mixed to give a 2:1:1 ratio of omega 3, 6 and 9 which is considered
the optimum ratio. They are good essential fatty acids, the one’s
our diet often lacks but our bodies crave.
Rosie
started to take seed oil after reading about the benefits and within
six weeks she started to see improvements, not just in her joints
but in her skin, hair condition and energy levels too. She hasn’t
had a bad attack since 2001 and from this turn around in her life
she decided to start producing seed oil.
