Omega-3 / Flax / Borage Supports Heart Health
Scientifically Optimized Blend of Omega-3
Better than Fish Oil
Natrol's Omega-3 Complex is the first to combine fatty acids from both grain
and marine sources - in exactly the right ratios-in one single product. This
unique combination of essential fatty acids (EFAs) helps support numerous functions
in the body including cardiovascular health. At 400 mg of Omega-3 per serving,
two Natrol Omega-3 Complex softgels daily give you the same EFAs as eating three
servings a week of salmon (a food known for its levels of "good fats").
FAQ About Flax Borage Omega-3
What is "Flaxseed Oil"?
Flaxseed oil is oil gently pressed from flax seed, containing up to 60% Alpha
Linolenic Acid (ALA). It is cold processed and hexane-free.
Flax seed has been used by various civilizations around the world for more than
10,000 years. In modern times, we are rediscovering its nutritional benefits.
The oil of the seed is a rich source of Essential Fatty Acids, containing 50-60%
ALA.
Flax seed also contains other nutritional components including fiber and lignans.
Flaxseed oil is prepared commercially in liquid form or in soft gel capsules.
The seed is also available whole or milled for use in breads, or for sprinkling
on salads and cereals.
What is "Borage Oil"?
Borage Oil is oil from the seed of the Borage plant, containing up to 24% Gamma
Linolenic Acid (GLA). It is cold processed and hexane-free.
Borage, also known as Starflower, is a shrubby garden herb. The Borage plant
has a long history of use in salads, soups, and drinks. It was also grown for
the sake of its flowers, which yield excellent honey.
According to Mrs. M. Grieve's "Modern Herbal", first published in
1931, cooks of the 19th century preserved the flowers and candied them. Today,
the plant is grown as a commercial crop and harvested for the seed, which is
nature's richest source of the fatty acid GLA. Oil produced from Borage seed
contains between 20 and 24% GLA.
