Description

OmegaFactors Organic Flaxseed Oil is a cold-pressed formula that is high in lignans, providing a plant-based source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids for the maintenance of good health. It is made from organic, locally grown Canadian flaxseed, which is a high-quality source of the essential fatty acids alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and linoleic acid (LA), for the maintenance of good health.



ALA is an omega-3 fatty acid that serves as a precursor for the body’s synthesis of the omega-3 fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and limited amounts of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). EPA and DHA help form the structure of cell membranes and have important roles in the brain, eyes, nerves, and cardiovascular system. LA is an omega-6 fatty acid found throughout the body’s cell membranes and tissues. It is also converted into the fatty acids gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA).



Omega-3 and -6 essential fatty acids are critical to our health, but many people do not consume them in a healthy balance. Organic Flaxseed Oil contains ALA and LA in a nourishing 4:1 ratio. Each convenient softgel delivers 1000 mg of flaxseed oil right to the intestines, where fatty acids are best absorbed. This cold-pressed oil is unrefined and solvent-free, guaranteeing the freshest possible product for anyone looking for a plant-based high-omega-3 supplement to complement their healthy diet.
