http://www.capefearnaturals.com/magento/flax-oil-promotes-cardiovascular-heal... Why Use Flaxseed Oil instead of Fish Oil?

There are 2 types of Fatty Acids, The Omega-6 Fatty Acids and the Omega-3 Fatty Acids. The average person consumes plenty of Omega-6 acids in their daily diet. However, many people are deficit in their Omega-3 intake and therefore have excess Omega-6. It's important to supplement Omega-3 fatty acid with Flax oil to balance the ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3. . Flax seed oil has a high content of alpha linolenic acid, ALA, which is a type of plant-derived omega 3 fatty acid. The body can convert the ALA to the other fatty acids the body needs, EPA & DHA. Flaxseed Oil is the best source of omega-3 fatty acids. Flaxseed oil is similar to fish oil but they do have their differences. Flax contains twice the amount of omega-3s as fish oil. Flax oil is cheaper than fish oil. Flax oil has a nutty taste whereas fish oil tastes "fishy". Flaxseed oil is organic and unprocessed whereas fish oil is not organic and highly process. Fish oil mush be purified of pollutants and then lab tested to rule out dangerous levels of pollutant residues from the ocean. Flax oil comes from a sustainable, renewable, plant source whereas fish oil is from an animal source that is dwindling and difficult to renew. Flax oil is less subject to oxidation. Oxidation causes it to become rancid because when it oxides it produces dangerous lipid peroxides. Be sure to keep your Flax Oil refrigerated. Cape Fear Naturals keeps our Flax Oil Refrigerated and sells a jar of 60 softgels, 1,000mg each for only $5.95.

  • just bought 200 capsules of flax seed oil for $10, so cheap ;)

  • It takes a ton more omega 3s from flax to get the same benefits as fish. flax has to be converted into what the body needs and only a small percentage of what you take in actually gets converted. Be carefull taking advice about a product from a person who sells that product. They tend to leave out litle tidbits like that.

  • cheaper and better, sounds like a good deal to me. Gonna research this!

  • fish are and will not be difficult to renew granted they continue to be profitable. just assume take flax anyway...

  • this background reminds me of my last acid trip!

  • is there someway i can sense if flaxseed has oxidiced?
