Nutra-Life Hi-Omega Flaxseed Oil 1000mg Capsules #1453269047

100% Pure Organically Grown Flaxseed

Nutra-Life Hi-Omega Flaxseed Oil is 100% pure High-Omega 3 flaxseed oil, cold-pressed from special organically grown whole flaxseed. It provides 70% Omega 3 Alpha Linolenic Acid and is an ultra-rich source of this essential nutrient compared with some other flaxseed oils. In addition, Hi-Omega Organic Flaxseed Oil also provides Omega 6 Linoleic Acid, and Omega 9 Oleic Acid.

Current research suggests that the typical Western diet provides a ratio of 15:11 Omega 6 to :Omega 3. However, for optimal health and wellbeing, health professionals recommend the ratio should be less than 3:1. Nutra-Life has increased the balance of Omega 3 in Nutra-Life Hi-Omega Flaxseed Oil to help address the Omega imbalance in the modern diet.

What are essential fatty acids? EFAs are essential for health and wellbeing and since the human body cannot manufacture them in sufficient amounts they must be supplied in the diet each day.

EFAs are just as important to health as vitamins and minerals and have numerous important functions in the body. They help form and maintain the membrane that surrounds each cell in the body and also help make powerful hormone-like substances called prostaglandins, which control the activity of many cellular and tissue functions. In particular prostaglandins are involved in the inflammatory and anti-inflammatory processes in the body, and Omega 3 EFAs are thought to help manage this balance.

What is the recommended ratio of Omega 6: Omega 3 essential fatty acids? Nutritional research confirms that maintaining a balance of Omega fatty acids in the diet is important to health. However, although Essential Fatty Acid consumption has increased dramatically over recent decades, the ratio of Omega 3 fatty acids to Omega 6 has declined to one-sixth of the level found in our food supply in the 1850’s.

This mostly due to the increased consumption of Omega 6-rich grains, processed foods and seed oils that has resulted in an overall EFA imbalance.
