Description
Solgar Cold Pressed Flaxseed Oil 1250mg is a food supplement containing flaxseed (linseed) oil in 100 softgels. Flaxseed oil comes from the seeds of the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum) and is a source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 essential fatty acid. The softgel format and 100-softgel pack suit a daily routine of 2 softgels, which gives 50 days per pack.
Key Features
- Cold pressed oil: The flaxseed oil is cold pressed without chemical solvents.
- Source of ALA: Flaxseed oil provides alpha-linolenic acid, an essential fatty acid that the body cannot make in adequate amounts and needs to get from the diet.
- 1250mg softgels: Each softgel is 1250mg, and the pack contains 100 softgels.
- Other fatty acids: As well as ALA, the oil provides linoleic, oleic, palmitic and stearic acids.
- Softgel shell ingredients: The shell is made from gelatin (from bovine) and vegetable glycerin (from palm kernel oil).
What is alpha-linolenic acid (ALA)?
ALA is an omega-3 fatty acid. It is classed as an essential fatty acid because the body cannot make enough of it, so it has to come from the diet. Flaxseed is one of the most concentrated plant sources of omega-3 fatty acids.
How many Solgar Flaxseed Oil softgels should I take, and how long does a pack last?
The recommended intake is 2 softgels a day. At that intake, one pack of 100 softgels lasts 50 days.
Is Solgar Cold Pressed Flaxseed Oil suitable for vegetarians and vegans?
No. The softgel shell contains gelatin (from bovine), so this product is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans.
