Flaxseed Oil
Flaxseed oil is sourced from the flax plant Linum usitatissimum, commonly known as Linseed. Flaxseed oil has the highest ALA content (the plant form of Omega 3) of any vegetarian source. Its 3:1 ratio of Omega 3 to Omega 6 helps reverse the dietary imbalance typically present in the western style diet.

Flaxseed Oil Info
Flaxseed oil taken to supplement dietary essential fatty acids is unrelated to the New Zealand flax plant (harakeke of the genus Phormium), which is really a lily unique to New Zealand. Flaxseed oil is sourced from the flax plant Linum usitatissimum, from the Linaceae family native to eastern Europe and parts of Asia, commonly known as Linseed. New Zealand Flaxseed oil is produced from a blue flowered, annual crop grown mainly in the South Island.
Flaxseed Oil Benefits
Research has linked Flaxseed oil to improved outcomes in coronary heart disease, heart arrhythmias, blood pressure, cholesterol reduction, artery health, cancer prevention, diabetes, hormonal imbalances, menopausal symptoms, excess weight gain, stress response, injury prevention, joint pain, arthritis, digestive function and constipation, Alzheimer’s symptoms, acne, skin condition and cognitive function.
Flaxseed oil contains 60% Omega 3 (alpha linolenic acid), 20% Omega 6 (linoleic acid) and 20% Omega 9 (oleic acid). This is a 3:1 ratio of Omega 3 to Omega 6, helping reverse the dietary imbalance present in the western style diet.
Flaxseed oil has the highest ALA content (the plant form of Omega 3) of any vegetarian source. This is definitely the most stable form because it contains high amounts of the protective antioxidant Vitamin E, compared with fish oil Omega 3s which do not.

Would love to see larger bottles
Great vegetarian omega-3 option. Quite pricey for how quickly I moved through the bottle. Would be great to see a larger bottle size.

Skin and nails
I took flaxseed for a few years, not sure why I stopped but when I noticed my nails were thin and my skin was dry I realised I had stopped taking my flaxseed . I started taking the flaxseed again and probably six weeks latter I started to notice the improvements. Now my nails grow ridiculously fast. They are incredibly strong and thick. My skin particularly on my body is softer and smoother. I used to have very dry itchy skin, that I would scratch in my sleep. No more. Highly recommend for people with dry skin problems.
