Composition & Nutrition

The oil supplies a large amount of ALA, a plant-based omega-3. However, because conversion of ALA to EPA and DHA is limited, you may also want other omega-3 sources if your diet lacks them.

Health Benefits

Earth Source Organic Flaxseed Oil offers multiple potential benefits, especially for those using plant-based diets. For instance, it may:

• Support heart & cardiovascular health: Flaxseed oil may reduce blood pressure, improve cholesterol profiles, and lower risk factors linked to heart disease.

• Promote skin & nerve health: The fatty acids support skin barrier integrity and help reduce dryness; likewise, they support nerve function.

• Provide anti-inflammatory effects: Because ALA has anti-inflammatory potential, flaxseed oil can reduce markers of inflammation in some studies.

• Improve digestive & metabolic function: In addition, using flaxseed oil may enhance gut regularity and support metabolic wellness when paired with a healthy lifestyle.

Suggested Use & Dosage

• Serving Size: Take 1 tablespoon (≈15 mL) daily, preferably with a meal.

• How to Use: Shake well before use. Also, store the bottle in a cool, dry place and refrigerate after opening to maintain freshness.

• Cooking Notes: Do not heat or fry with flaxseed oil because high heat can damage beneficial fatty acids. Instead, use it cold or add to foods after cooking.

Safety & Considerations

• Allergy & Health Status: If you have flaxseed allergies, gastrointestinal sensitivities, or are pregnant or nursing, consult a healthcare provider first.

• Medication Interactions: Because omega-3 and other polyunsaturated fats can slightly affect blood clotting, check with your doctor if you use anticoagulants or have bleeding risks.

• Quality & Freshness: Oils can oxidize over time; therefore, always choose products stored in dark bottles, refrigerate after opening, and use before the expiry date.
