Flax
Seed Oil
Flax seed oil is derived from
the seeds of the flax plant. Flax seed oil and flax seed contain
substances that promote good health. Flax seed oil is rich in
alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an essential fatty acid that appears
to be beneficial for heart disease, inflammatory bowel disease,
arthritis and a variety of other health conditions. Flax seed,
in addition to ALA, contains a group of chemicals called lignans
that may play a role in the prevention of cancer. <More> |
