Flaxseed is a vegetable source of omega-3 essential fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), the parent fatty acid of all omega-3 fatty acids such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The essential fatty acids in flaxseed oil are part of the basic building block of cell membranes and a good source of energy. Flaxseed oil may contribute to the reduction of inflammation by providing a building block of anti-inflammatory biochemicals and by decreasing the inflammatory effects of excess omega-6 fatty acid linolenic acid (AL) so abundant in vegetable oils. ALA may also reduce platelet aggregation. All important for maintaining good heart health.
