Barlean's Organic Flaxseed Oil
In nature 50 essential nutrients
have been discovered that are necessary to sustain human life.
Of these, two essential fatty acids have been identified, alpha
linolenic acid, an Omega-3 fatty acid, and linoleic acid, an
Omega-6 fatty acid. Of all known food sources organic flaxseed
oil has been recognized as nature's richest source of these
vital essential fatty acids containing 55% alpha linolenic and
16.7% linoleic acids. Modern manufacturing methods of
polyunsaturated oils have done much to remove these important
fats from our food chain. Large scale nutritional surveys
suggest that much of our population is deficient in essential
fatty acids. Recent scientific research, coupled with flaxseed
oil's long history of therapeutic use, has propelled essential
fat supplementation into the forefront of human nutrition.
