Omega-3 fatty acids are termed essential because they cannot be manufactured by the body and must be obtained through the diet. They play a number of important roles in the body and are beneficial in helping to maintain healthy joints. Flax oil contains alpha-linolenic acid, the parent of the Omega-3 essential fatty acid family. In order for the body to use alpha-linolenic acid, it must be converted into eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The Omega-3 EFAs found in cods liver and oily fish are in the form of EPA and DHA and are a more reliable source of EPA and DHA. However, traditional Omega-3 supplements may not be suitable for vegetarians or people who do not like oily fish.Seven Seas Pure Organic Flax Oil is Cold pressed and purified to ensure that the oil is full of omega 3 goodness. |
