Flaxseed oil is one of nature's richest plant sources of essential fatty acids (EFA's). Flaxseed oil is rich in omega-3 in the form of alpha-linoleic 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 individuals 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 not conclusive 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. Scientists believe lignans have antioxidant properties.
Our cold expeller pressed flaxseed oil is hexane free. It is made from the finest flaxseeds available and enriched with 20% 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.
