Nature's Richest Plant Source of Omega–3 Fatty Acids

Flax Seed Oil fits perfectly into the good health picture because of its high content of essential fatty acids (EFAs). These are the good fats, and they include omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Flax seeds are even richer in omega-3 fatty acids than fish oil. Both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are absolutely essential to good health. However, because our bodies are unable to produce them, they must be obtained from the diet.

The essential fatty acids found in flax seed oil help form the membranes surrounding every cell, are a component of the myelin sheath, support immune function, and help in the metabolism of cholesterol. Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to promote the proper balance of prostaglandins involved in a healthy inflammatory response. Prostaglandins are hormone-like substances responsible for regulating many systems within the body, including the cardiovascular, immune, hormonal, and reproductive systems.

Because dietary fat is so prevalent in food today, most people assume they are getting enough fat. The fact is, they are probably getting too much saturated fat and not enough essential fatty acids. EFAs are routinely processed out of foods and their production can decline with stress and aging. In addition, saturated fat can diminish the benefits of EFAs.

PhysioLogics' Flax Seed Oil soft gels help support:

• Production of prostaglandins that promote healthy cholesterol levels
• The health of the myelin sheath, a fatty material that surrounds, protects and insulates nerve fibers
• The formation of the membranes surrounding every cell
• Healthy immune system function*

Directions:
Take 1 soft gel, up to three times daily with meals, or follow the advice of your health care professional.
