The body has an essential need for omega 3 fatty acids that must come from the diet or be gained through supplements. Apart from fish, flax is one of the best sources of omega 3 fatty acids. Flax seed oil provides these essential fatty acids (EFAs) in a form that even people with fish and seafood allergies can use. The EFAs in Flax Seed Oil help promote cardiovascular health and support neurological health in conditions where deficient EFAs is considered a contributing factor, including Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis, depression, and menopausal mood swings. Omega 3 is known to support the immune system and to help reduce the painful inflammation of rheumatoid arthritis.
