Flax seed oil is natures most concentrated source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an essential omega-3 fatty acid. Douglas Laboratories Flax Seed Oil provides 55- 60% ALA, as well as significant amounts of oleic acid and the essential linoleic acid in their natural triglyceride forms. Flax Seed Oil is extracted without the damaging effects of heat, light, and oxygen using a mechanical expeller press. Using this process, the oil never is exposed to temperatures above 96 F, and it retains its natural color and contents of naturally occurring fatty acids, phosphatides, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
Suggested Usage: 1 - 2 tablespoons daily as a dietary supplement. Can be mixed with foods, used as a salad dressing, or taken directly. Do not use for cooking or baking as heating may destroy some of the nutritional value of the oil.
