Product Notes:
Flaxseed oil has a very high concentration of ALA, which is one form of the essential fatty acid Omega-3 which our livers can then convert to the EPA and DHA forms that people usually turn to fish oils for.
Flax is of course a plant rather than a fish, which is produced as a highly sustainable crop with virtually no negative impact on the environment and without acquiring heavy metals or other toxins, and many find it a far more neutral or even pleasing taste, and it can be seamlessly integrated with your diet in many more ways.
