Made up of entirely plant sources.
Flax Seed Oil (with Lignans) is a convenient
plant source alternative to fish oils. Experts
once believed the best sources of omega-3
were fish oils, but more recently it was
found that flax seed oil contains twice
as much omega 3 as fish oils do.
This is not to say that fish oils are
not a good source of EFAs (essential fatty
acids).
The capsules
are very good to replace liquid oil as many
do not like the taste of oils, nor like
fish smells and taste. The soft gel capsules
are quite large but they are soft and smooth and
are easier to swallow than a tabule
of the same size.
Lineolic acid is an essential fatty acid
that cannot be manufactured within the body
and the same applies to Lignans.
Lignans provide the nutrition to stimulate
immune activity.
Omega-3 oil nutritionally supports the immune and circulatory/heart
systems.
Omega-6 oil nutritionally supports the glandular and
structural systems.
Omega-9 oil nutritionally supports the respiratory
system.
EFAs are well documented and well
studied by scientific sources.
They are precursors to prostaglandins,
which are described as: any of a class of
unsaturated fatty acids that are involved
in the contraction of smooth muscle, the
control of inflammation and body temperature,
and many other physiological functions.
Anti-inflammatories.
EFAs nutritionally aid in: keeping the
saturated fats mobile in the bloodstream,
maintaining already normal levels of cholesterol
and stickiness
of blood platelets, construction of healthy
cell membranes, maintaining nerve health,
kidney health, immune activity and providing beneficial phytoestrogens,
(which are described as: a
naturally occurring compound of
plants, such
as
soybeans and flax, or
plant products, such
as
whole grain cereals, that
act like, or mimic estrogen in
the
body).
Contains: per 2 capsules
Omega-3 900-1200 mg
