Flax seed oil comes from Common flax that has been a source for food, fiber (linen), oil, and has been used in herbal preparations for centuries.
Flax Seed Oil (aka Linseed Oil) is one of the best vegetarian sources of essential fatty acids. It contains approximately 50-60% of omega-3 essential fatty acid linolenic acid or alpha-linolenic acid, and roughly 18-20% of omega-6 essential fatty acid linoleic acid.
Flax Seed Oil is nature's richest source of linolenic acid, which is frequently deficient in American diets. Most Americans consume diets that contain too much of the omega-6 fatty acids and not enough of omega-3 fatty acids. Flax Seed Oil is a very important nutritional supplement because it is nature's best vegetarian source of omega-3 fatty acid.
