Product
Brief: Flaxseed Oil is a valuable
Essential Fatty Acid supplement. In particular,
Flaxseed
Oil is rich in Alpha Linolenic Acid or ALA. ALA is called an Essential Fatty
Acid
because
it is a ŇgoodÓ fat essential for life. Because our bodies cannot make ALA, we
must get
it from our diet. ThatŐs why Flaxseed Oil, containing approximately 55% ALA,
is so
important as a supplement.
Once our
body gets the ALA it needs from Flaxseed Oil, it is transformed into two other
fatty
acids: EPA and DHA (the same beneficial compounds found in fish oil). Research
shows
that EPA and DHA can help protect us from heart disease, lower bad cholesterol,
improve
our immune system, assist in brain functions, protect against certain cancers
and
reduce the pain from arthritic inflammation.
Health
FirstŐs Flaxseed Oil is grown in Canada under certified organic conditions.
The oil
is then cold-pressed to avoid damaging the EFA content.
