Flax Seed Oil
Omega 3 fatty acids are important for the maintenance of a healthy heart, and in helping to maintain joint flexibility, as well as healthy skin.
Flax seed oil is an excellent alternative to fish oils as the oil obtained from flax seed is 60% by weight alpha-linolenic acid and contains almost twice as much Omega-3 per gram of weight as fish oils. Alpha-linolenic acid is converted by the body into the Omega-3 fatty acids present in fish oil (EPA and DHA) as required.
Flax seed oil is also a useful source of linoleic acid, the 'parent' fatty acid to the Omega-6 fatty acids, for which evening primrose is so well known.
90 capsules, each providing 1000mg of pure flax seed oil without the aftertaste or odour associated with fish oils. 1-3 daily.
