What is Flaxseed Oil?
Flaxseeds come from the plant Linum Usitatissimum and have become popular for their numerous health benefits. Flaxseeds are naturally high in fibre and contain Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA) which is a form of Omega 3.
Flaxseed Oil is different to other types of Omega 3 supplements such as Fish Oil. Fish Oil contains three Omega 3 fats which are ALA, (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) and DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid). Flaxseed Oil only contains ALA, which can make it ideal for those wanting to increase just their ALA intake.
Omega 3 is an essential fatty acid (EFA) and cannot be produced in the human body, meaning that it must be obtained through diet or supplementation. ALA contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels. Traditionally, flaxseeds contain nutrients such as Vitamin B1, Vitamin B6, Calcium, Iron & Magnesium.
