• The body does not produce essential fatty acids (EFA's) i.e. Linolenic acid and Linoleic acid and, as a result, they must be supplied through diet. Ground Flax Seed is rich in EFA's.
• Un-ground flax seed is not digestible and, as a result, it will not supply the body with the necessary lignans or ALA. To be effective, flax seed must be ground before it is ingested
• For optimum nutrient value, use ground flax seeds instead of flax oil. Flax oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, but it does NOT contain the beneficial lignans and fiber. The lignans and fiber are removed in the production process.
