Flax seed Oil
Flaxseed, also known as linseed, is a type of seed that is rich in nutrients and other compounds. It is a good source of fiber, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids, as well as a variety of vitamins and minerals. Flaxseed is often ground and used as a supplement in the form of flaxseed meal or oil. Flaxseed has a number of potential health benefits. It is high in fiber, which can help improve digestion and lower cholesterol levels. The omega-3 fatty acids found in flaxseed are believed to have anti-inflammatory properties and may help reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke. Flaxseed is also a rich source of lignans, plant compounds that have been shown to have estrogen-like effects. Both flaxseed and flaxseed oil are popular dietary supplements and share many of the same purported health benefits. However, one of the main differences between the two is the amount of fiber they contain. Flaxseed is a good source of both soluble and insoluble fiber, while flaxseed oil does not contain any fiber. This means that flaxseed can help improve digestion and lower cholesterol levels, while flaxseed oil does not have these effects.

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.
