OmegaFactors Certified Organic Flaxseed Oil is derived from certified organic Canadian flax, grown in Alberta, and high in the omega-3 fatty acids. These fatty acids may help maintain healthy triglyceride and cholesterol levels, thus protecting against cardiovascular disease.

Solvent-free, cold-pressed (below 40 degrees Celsius), OmegaFactors Certified Organic Flaxseed Oil is not refined, deodorized or bleached and is regularly tested for peroxides, guaranteeing the freshest possible product. A small amount of vitamin E has been added to prevent oxidation.

Note: "lignins". Although related structurally, they have in common a cinnamic acid residue and may be synthesized in a similar pathway, they differ in their biological effects. Lignins are a type of insoluble fibre found in plant cell walls and they do not have the anti-estrogen effects that lignans do.

Pregnancy and Nursing: Historically, flaxseed oil has been recommended during pregnancy and lactation because it may help reduce constipation that can often occur during pregnancy. It is also an excellent vegetarian source of omega-3 fatty acids. Flaxseeds and flaxseed oil have also been used historically to encourage lactation. However, recent animal studies have shown a negative effect during pregnancy and therefore some experts are recommending that flaxseed oil be avoided during this time. The Natural Medicine Comprehensive Database says that "flaxseed oil is likely safe when used orally in amounts found in foods and possibly unsafe when used orally in medicinal amounts." Therefore we suggest that pregnant women check with their knowledgeable health care practitioner if they have any concerns about taking flaxseed oil during pregnancy.

Seniors: No special precautions are known.
