Flax Seed Oil contains omega-6 and omega-9
essential fatty acids, protein, zinc, potassium, B vitamins, lecithin, magnesium, fiber,
and more omega-3 oils than fish oil. Reasearchers say flaxseed oil may be a more important health supplement than a multi-vitamin.
Omega-3 fatty acids lower cholesterol and
blood triglycerides, preventing clots in arteries, that result in strokes, heart attacks
and thromboses.

The recommended daily dose is 1,000 mg
taken one to three times a day. However, adding flax seeds into your diet in breads,
muffins or in your salads is better. Scientific studies have shown up to 30 grams of flax
seeds a day can be taken safely without side effects. Our family takes about one
tablespoons a day of fresh refrigerated flaxseed oil for adults and one teaspoon a day for
our children. In some cases, results can take up to six weeks to notice. If you really want to feel great have lots of energy and stay healthy, there are three most important things you can do for yourself and your family. 1. Cut out all hydrogenated oils and partially hydrogenated oils. 2. Add the right oils to your diet such as flaxseed oil and coconut oil. Flaxseed oil cannot be heated, however coconut oil can be reasonably heated and used for frying. 3. Cut out all refined products, especially refined sugars. Do a search on Dr. Johanna Budwig. She was one of the worlds leading expers on oils and fats. She also has an excellent cookbook with easy recipes using flaxseed oil and coconut oil that you can purchase on amazon.com. Dr. Budwig successfully cured cancer and other diseases with a special flaxseed oil/cottage cheese recipe. This was truly an amazing woman. She died in 2003 at the age of 95.
