Flax Seed Oil

Flax seed oil is recognized as one of nature's richest sources of essential fatty acids, and because it contains two essential fatty acids: alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 essential fatty acid, and linoleic acid, an omega-6 essential fatty acid, in just the right proportions. Flax seed is also a great source if lignans, vitamins and minerals. ALA is an omega-3 fatty acid that, to a limited extent, can be converted in the body into two other important omega-3s — EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). Flax seed is also rich in lignan. Research has reveal that lignan in flax seed shows a lot of promise in fighting disease. It is thought that lignan metabolites can bind to estrogen receptors, inhibiting the onset of estrogen-stimulated breast cancer.
