Experts estimate 80% of our population doesn't consume sufficient quantities of essential fatty acids. Yet more than 60 health conditions have been shown to benefit from essential fatty acid supplementation and its antioxidant and immune-boosting properties.
Doctor's Choice Flax Oil combines flaxseed oil-an important source of omega-3 fatty acids-with pumpkin and borage seed oils. Pumpkin seed oil is valued for its plant sterols; borage seed oil is a source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). This formula is stabilized with rosemary antioxidant.
Doctor's Choice Flax Oil is the preferred source of essential fatty acids. The advantages of Doctor's Choice Flax Oil include:
Omega-3 (ALA)................ 5,250 mg
Omega-6 (LA).................. 2,625 mg
Omega-9 (Oleic)............... 2,600 mg

Capsules are a convenient alternative to the liquid, and are also available in a 120-count bottle.
