Flaxseed oil is a rich source of omega 3, 6, 9 fatty acids which are very essential for a healthy living. Broadly it is useful for heart health, arthritis pain, diabetes, weight loss, stress and many more health benefits. Flaxseed oil contains the active form of omega-3 fatty acid known as alpha linolenic acid (ALA). It converts into EPA (Eicosapentanoic acid) and DHA (Docosahexaenoic acid) in the process of metabolism in the liver. EPA & DHA reduce the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels.
