Omega 3-6-9 Flaxseed Oil, 1000mg – 60 softgels

Each softgel in this 60-capsule pack contains 1,000 mg of cold-pressed flaxseed oil (Linum usitatissimum), standardised for its content of omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 unsaturated fatty acids. Specifically, each capsule delivers a minimum of 500 mg of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), 110 mg of linoleic acid (LA), and 110 mg of oleic acid (OA). The oil is unrefined and cold-pressed to preserve the fatty acid profile, and the packaging is made using BioPET, with 30% of the plastic sourced from sugar cane.

Alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3) and linoleic acid (omega-6) are classified as essential fatty acids, meaning the body cannot produce them and they must come from food or supplementation. Oleic acid (omega-9) is categorised as partially essential. Flaxseed oil is one of the plant-based sources where all three fatty acid types occur together, making it a useful option for those who prefer a vegetarian-friendly alternative to fish-based omega supplements.

The softgel format is easy to swallow and requires no mixing or preparation. This product suits those following a plant-based diet, as well as anyone looking to top up their intake of essential fatty acids through a straightforward daily capsule.
