Quest Flax Seed Oil is a high-quality, high-lignan flax seed oil supplement derived from the finest quality cold-pressed organic Canadian flax seeds. Flax seed oil is a rich source of essential fatty acids (EFAs) in a 3:1 ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids. These fatty acids have anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal effects, and they are beneficial for regulating bowel movements, balancing blood sugar and cholesterol levels, reducing high blood pressure, and enhancing the immune system.
