Flax Seed Oil
Flaxseed, also known as linseed, is a blue flowering plant grown on the western Canadian prairies for its rich oils, according to Essortment.com. Some researchers say flaxseed oil is the most important health-promoting supplement, next to a multi-vitamin. Nearly every system of the body can benefit from its natural properties. It is high in omega-3 fatty acids, necessary for healthy functioning of the heart and immune system, and also helpful in restoring skin health. Flaxseed contains up to 50 percent more omega-3 fatty acids than fish oil supplements, according to Essortment.com. When applied topically, flaxseed oil may be more effective for skin treatment than when taken as a supplement. PROFILE
