Flax Seed Oil is a very rich balanced source of essential fatty acids. These beneficial fats play an extremely important role in brain, nerve, glandular, and eye functions. In addition, they are concerned in the transport and metabolism of cholesterol and triglycerides. Essential fatty acids are further metabolized into hormone-like substances in the cell known as prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are greatly involved in the reulation of many very important physiological functions.*
