Linseed oil - properties

Flax seeds, i.e. linseed ( Linum usitatissimum L.), are prized oilseeds that yield non-GMO oil with an excellent fat profile. The raw material used to produce the Swanson ^® brand preparation includes, among others: alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 fatty acid, as well as linoleic acid (LA), i.e. omega-6 and oleic acid (omega-9) in appropriate proportions.

Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) helps maintain normal blood cholesterol levels. The beneficial effect occurs when 2 g of ALA is consumed per day. A similar effect is demonstrated by linoleic acid (LA) consumed at 10 g per day from all sources in a properly selected diet.

Each package of Swanson ^® 1000 mg Flaxseed Oil contains 200 gel capsules, which will provide almost two months of daily supplementation.
