With growing awareness around the unique health challenges women face during midlife, Regenerative Omegas has received special recognition for its impact on skin health. At the Menopause Awards 2026, the supplement was named Highly Commended in the skin health category, a proud moment for the team and a milestone for sustainable, plant-based innovation.
This accolade reflects not only the product’s effectiveness, but also its pioneering use of British regeneratively farmed Ahiflower® oil, a sustainable, omega-rich oil and the richest natural plant source of omega-3 fatty acids.
Why Skin Changes During Midlife
As women transition through perimenopause and menopause, skin often becomes drier, thinner and more sensitive. Declining oestrogen levels play a central role in this shift. Oestrogen supports the production of structural proteins and helps regulate inflammatory processes that protect the skin barrier. When levels drop, the barrier can weaken, leading to increased moisture loss, dryness, irritation and the appearance of fine lines.
Environmental factors such as cold weather, air conditioning, sun exposure and harsh skincare routines can further compromise the barrier. Skin conditions including eczema, psoriasis and rosacea may also increase transepidermal water loss (TEWL), leaving skin vulnerable and uncomfortable.
Supporting the skin from the inside out can make a meaningful difference.
The Skin–Omega Connection
Healthy skin depends on a strong lipid matrix, a combination of ceramides, cholesterol and fatty acids that form the outer protective barrier. When this structure is intact, moisture is retained and skin feels smooth and resilient. When compromised, hydration escapes more easily.
This is where the unique fatty acid profile of Regenerative Omegas comes into its own.
Omega-3 SDA: Advanced Plant-Based Support
Ahiflower® oil contains stearidonic acid (SDA), a rare plant-based omega-3 that converts efficiently into EPA, the anti-inflammatory omega-3 more commonly associated with fish oils.
By delivering SDA in a highly bioavailable form, Regenerative Omegas helps to:
-
Enhance skin barrier resilience
-
Support skin hydration and moisture retention
-
Reduce inflammatory signalling that contributes to redness and sensitivity
Healthy omega-3 levels are associated with smoother, more nourished and comfortable skin, particularly important during hormonal change.
Omega-6 GLA: The Barrier Builder
Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) is a specialised omega-6 fatty acid with powerful barrier-supporting benefits. Unlike some omega-6 fats, GLA converts into anti-inflammatory compounds within the body.
Think of GLA as an internal moisturising serum, helping to reduce transepidermal water loss and support softer, more elastic skin. Research also suggests GLA may contribute to firmness, which is particularly relevant as collagen production can decline from as early as out thirties! This decline is further accelerated at perimenopause, with the loss of oestrogen’s influence.
Why Regenerative Farming Matters
What sets Regenerative Omegas apart isn’t just its effectiveness, but also the pioneering use of Ahiflower® oil, grown on British farms using regenerative agricultural practices designed to improve soil health, biodiversity and carbon capture.
This means consumers are supporting both skin health and planetary health, a powerful combination that reflects what many people are truly looking for.
Recognition Well Deserved
Being Highly Commended at the Menopause Awards 2026 places Regenerative Omegas among a select group of products making a genuine impact in midlife wellbeing.
As conversations around menopause become more informed and empowering, products that address root causes, not just surface symptoms, are leading the way. The unique fatty acids profile of Regenerative Omegas, rich in both omega-3 SDA and omega-6 GLA, supports hydration, resilience and radiance from within.
What’s truly exceptional about Regenerative Omegas, is the wide range of benefits such as supporting brain health, joint health and heart health, as well as healthy, shiny hair. Award-Winning skin support is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Regenerative Omegas! Available as a soft gel or in liquid form.
