HOW FLAXSEED OIL WORKS
Flaxseed oil is rich in omega-3 (as Alpha-linolenic acid), omega 6 (as Linoleic acid) and omega-9 (as Oleic acid). Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) can be metabolized into EPA and DHA, both which are important in maintaining good cardiovascular health. Flaxseed oil contains a high amount of omega-3 which also has anti-inflammatory properties.
WHAT THE RESEARCH SAYS
Flaxseed oil has been shown to have a positive impact on cardiovascular health, largely due to the high amounts of ALA[1,2]. The inflammatory properties also aids in reducing the risk of atherosclerosis[3].
