After working in clinical and health research for 10 years, Judit Beres left her successful career to pursue her true passion.

From that passion was born Neomega Nutritionals, a new take on culinary oils. From artisan cold-pressed avocado oils to vegetarian omega 3 oils, there’s an option for everyone.

“Many people don’t associate an oil with being a superfood, or being healthy, even, or reducing inflammation,” Beres told WCHL contributor Ashley Peterson earlier this year. “But, in fact, it does. Good fats are very important for our diet, and our brain is 70 percent fat.”

One of Beres’ inspirations was helping her son with his severe allergies and eczema. Through natural medicine and dietary changes, she was able to reduce all of his allergies.

Neomega oils are available on Amazon Prime, on their website and in specialty shops throughout the Triangle, such as Weaver Street Market and Raleigh Provisions.

As a recipient of the Small Business Grant Program, Neomega Nutrionals was able to increase their workforce and marketing efforts.

All are invited to tune in to 97.9 The Hill WCHL on October 17 from 3-7 p.m. for the Orange County Economic Development Summit, a first-of-its-kind live radio broadcast event brought to you by Orange County Government. Use #GrowInOrangeNC to engage with the conversation!

Economic development takes form in a variety of shapes and sizes. Visit chapelboro.com for a preview of local businesses that continue to grow in Orange County. To see more Orange County Economic Development grant and loan recipient stories, visit GrowInOrangeNC.com.
