Hi Jean-claude;
The eggs I eat are from Burnbrae farms in Ontario ;
They state;
"To produce these eggs, our chickens eat an all-natural, flax-based diet
that was developed by researchers at the University of Guelph. We at
Burnbrae Farms added vitamin E to this diet producing an egg with seven
times more vitamin E and eight times more omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty
acids than regular eggs. "
