NOW Foods Flax Oil with Essential Omega-3's is a softgel supplement designed to support cardiovascular health and promote healthy skin, according to the manufacturer. It provides 3,000 mg of cold-pressed, unrefined organic flax seed oil per serving, which is a natural source of the essential omega-3 fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid (ALA).
This product is notable for its manufacturing process: the flax seed oil is specially pressed to retain its natural composition, and it is encapsulated in softgels to protect against oxidation and contamination. The manufacturer states that each serving naturally contains approximately 55% linolenic acid (omega-3), 14% linoleic acid (omega-6), and 19% oleic acid (omega-9). It is made in the USA with globally sourced ingredients and holds certifications such as Non-GMO and Kosher (Triangle K, containing gelatin). The 250-softgel size offers 83 servings, and it is also available in a 100-softgel variant.
