Flaxseed oil, one of nature's richest plant sources of essential fatty acids (EFAs), is rich in omega-3 in the form of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). In the body, ALA is converted into two other, more bioavailable fatty acids — eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).
The American Heart Association has endorsed omega-3 fatty acids as good for the heart. Through the years, hundreds of studies have established that those with diets high in omega-3 fatty acids may experience a decrease in the risk of heart attack, stroke, and abnormal heart rhythms. They also protect the heart by preventing blood clots and keeping other fats from injuring arterial walls. Supportive but inconclusive research shows that the consumption of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.
Besides omega-3 fatty acids, flaxseed oil contains chemicals called lignans, which scientists believe have antioxidant properties.
Our cold expeller-pressed flaxseed oil is hexane free, made from the finest flaxseeds available, and enriched with 20 percent organic flaxseed particulate to provide a great source of lignans. Each tablespoon serving contains approximately 12 mg of actual lignans. The product has also been nitrogen flushed to preserve freshness.
Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, adults take one (1) tablespoon daily with a meal, or as directed by a health care professional. Store in a cool, dry place and away from direct light. Best if kept refrigerated.
It is important to shake vigorously before using to fully disperse the flaxseed particulate. Natural settling may occur.
