Does flax seed oil really work?

All these people saying it helps with fiber, omega 3, etc.





Is it true? And what does it REALLY do?





I almost drank the Kool-Aid with my rents.Does flax seed oil really work?
Yes, it IS rich in Omega 3, 6, and 9 fatty acids (although moreso the Omega 3 and 9) and fiber. It's not cult-ish, nor hype... that's the basis of what it is. ';Omega'; fatty acids are a classification of nutrients that are divided up between the 3 categories (3, 6, and 9) and Flax Oil has one from each of those categories, plus it naturally has a lot of fiber (as do most fruits, vegetables, and grains).





What you said is completely true and the scientific basis of the nutrients in Flax. Byocoma is right that it's very good for cardiovascular health because of those nutrients, but it's also good for skin health, heart health, digestive health, and even some aspects of joint health. It has literally been used for centuries in different cultures because of those benefits.


You can even find more detailed information about it at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flax_oil#Nu鈥?/a>


Good luck!Does flax seed oil really work?
One thing about vegetable omega 3 that is not particularly well known is that the omega 3 in flax seeds, walnuts and soy products is ALA which has no brain benefits.





Flax oil has various health benefits such as anti-inflammatory benefits and others that you can find in a web search for ';flax oil'; + ';health benefits';.





The omega 3 in fish oil is DHA and EPA and DHA has brain benefits so if you want brain benefits you need fish oil.
I take it everyday it's one of the richest in omega 3 oils it's so good for you barleen's has one of the best.
