Flax or Linseed is a blue flowering plant that is grown on the Western Canadian Prairies for its oil rich seeds. Flaxseed oil is rich in omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids (EFA’s) that are required for the health of almost all body systems. Your body needs these fats to function properly, yet it doesn’t produce them on its own. This makes EFA’s an important part of your diet.
