Complete range of high-quality, organic flax seed oil products, rich in Omega-3.

The Omega-3 essential fatty acid (EFA) is alpha linolenic acid (ALA). It is important to realise that 'essential' means just that - we absolutely have to have them to live and be healthy; our bodies cannot make them, so we have to obtain them from our food or from food supplements.

There are four important Omega-3's:

• alpha linolenic acid or ALA - flax seed oil
• stearidonic acid or SDA - blackcurrant seed oil
• eicosapentaenoic acid or EPA - fish oils
• docosahexaenoic acid or DHA - fish oils

Healthy people are able to convert flax seed oil to EPA and DHA, but some of the stresses of modern living mean that some people need to consume additional SDA to ensure they produce adequate EPA and DHA.
