Introduction
The average American diet contains far too
much saturated and hydrogenated fat, and yet is deficient in
beneficial fatty acids responsible for many functions in the
body. Scientists have attributed the importance of these good or
essential fats to their production of hormone-like compounds
called prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are beneficial for
promoting adequate cardiovascular, immune, and healthy nervous
system health. It is important that individuals receive a
balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, two classes of
essential fats that have positive health benefits on the body.
Flax seed oil capsules are a convenient and suitable way for
individuals to receive a plant source of the essential compounds
found in fish oils.
