Organic Flax Oil Super Lignan Overview
When flax seeds are cold-pressed to extract their nutritious omega-3 rich oil, small seed particles called lignans settle out from the oil and are usually filtered before the oil is bottled or encapsulated, since consumers associate clear oils with purity. They can't claim to provide healthy omega 3 fats like flax oil, but lignans are actually very healthy nutrients in their own right. Intestinal bacteria ferment flax lignans into compounds with hormone balancing properties that may be especially beneficial for mature men and women. Nature's Way EFA Gold Super Lignan is the highest-quality lignan-rich flax oil available, providing rich amounts of both omega 3s and flax lignans. EFA Gold is a healthy addition to shakes, salad dressings and other cold foods.
