BioCare Linseed Oil 1000 - Certified Organic Linseed - 90 x 1000mg Gel Caps

Linseed oil, also known as flax seed oil, is a yellowish drying oil derived from the dried ripe seeds of the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum, Linaceae). Linseed is a good source of dietary fibre, omega-3 fatty acids, and lignans.

Essential fatty acids (EFAs), such as omega 3 and 6, make up the cell membranes of every cell in the body, and produce hormone-like substances that are important for many biochemical processes, including energy metabolism, cardiovascular and immune system health.

Omega-3 fatty acids help maintain a healthy heart and facilitate the utilisation of oxygen by the heart muscle. Omega-3 fatty acids also help maintain the integrity of the epithelial tissue lining the lungs and intestinal tract and the skin.
