Melrose Australian Flaxseed Oil 500ml^{^} (always read the label)

Melrose Australin Flaxseed oil is cold-pressed from Australian-grown flaxseeds. Flaxseed oil has one of the highest concentrations of plant-based essential fatty acid omega-3 alpha-linolenic adcid (ALA) and is an excellent vegan alternative to fish oil. ALA is converted to EPA and DHA in the body, which are essential fatty acids required for optimum health.

Omega-3 essential fatty acids EPA and DHA are important for optimal health, yet they can be difficult to come by for those who don't eat fish and don't want to take a fish oil supplement. Many plant foods contain omega-3 fatty acid ALA, which converts within the body to EPA and DHA, yet conversion can be low, so you need much more ALA to produce the same amount of EPA and DHA you may get from fish or supplements. Flaxseeds are one of the highest plant-based sourced of omega-3, further concentrated by extracting the oil. Melrose Australian Flaxseed Oil is an excellent option for those avoiding fish to take in adequate omega-3 fat daily. Our Australian Flaxseed Oil goes through a fine filtration process to remove impurities, resulting in a shelf stable oil. We recommend refrigerating after opening.
