Processed foods have become more common place in the American diet, making it harder to get the high quality nutrition needed to keep our mind and body functioning optimally. Our Organic Flax helps to restore the essential omega-3 fatty acids that are required for heart, circulatory, joint and overall cellular health. The Institute of Medicine recommends men consume 1.6 grams per day and women consume 1.1 grams per day of omega-3 fatty acids. However, some people have more difficulty than others converting ALA omega-3 into the more active EPA and DHA fatty acids. Therefore, our product has you more than covered with over 6 grams of ALA per serving to help you reap the benefits of omega-3s. Perfect for vegetarians, vegans, or anyone looking for all the benefits of Organic, cold-pressed Flax.
