What Is It?
Flax seed oil, containing omega-3 fatty acids, provides support for a number of physiological functions, including cardiovascular, immune, joint and cell health.*
Uses For Flax Seed Oil
Omega-3 Fatty Acid Support: Alpha-linolenic acid, or ALA, is the main omega-3 fatty acid in flax seed oil and can be converted into eicosapentaenoic acid, or EPA, in the body, supporting healthy prostaglandin activity and cardiovascular function. High in omega-3 fatty acids, flax seed oil is also a source of other health-promoting fatty acids. Together, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are supportive for immune system function, cell membrane integrity, joint function and lipid metabolism. Furthermore, this flax seed oil is specially processed to contain higher levels of naturally occurring lignans, the phytoestrogen compound multiple studies have indicated may help support breast, prostate, intestinal and cardiovascular health.*
What Is The Source?
Pure Encapsulations Flax Seed Oil is cold-pressed from certified organic flax seeds, a process that helps preserve the oil’s health-promoting constituents.
