Description
FLAX OIL – ORGANIC – 1000 MG – 180 SOFT-GELS
ORGANIC-HIGH LIGNAN – A rich source of the essential fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid, which is a biologic precursor to omega-3 fatty acids such as eicosapentaenoic acid.
Flax is one of the finest sources of Alpha-Linolenic Acid (Omega-3) and Linoleic Acid (Omega-6). These are two essential fatty acids that the body does not produce and must be obtained from the diet. Flax seed oil is also rich in Oleic acid (Omega 9). Research has shown that omega-9 fatty acids, commonly referred to as monounsaturated fatty acids, can help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke.Omega-9 fatty acids have been shown to increase HDL (“good”) cholesterol and decrease LDL(“bad”) cholesterol. They help eliminate plaque buildup in the arteries, which may cause heart attack or stroke. Fatty acids play a role in providing an energy source for the body. Flax Oil is an excellent source of Lignans- phytochemicals which play a part in the well being of the body.
