It is recommended to take from 1,1 to 1,6 g of omega-3 fatty acids daily for women and men, respectively. Omega-3 fatty acids are often lacking in our North American diet. Flax oil contributes to rebalancing the proportion of omega-3 compared to omega-6 in our diets. Currently, this ratio is about 10:1 to 30:1, while it should ideally be around 1:1 to 4:1.

Flax seed oil is the best source of alpha linolenic acid, the only vegetable omega-3. Other omega-3 such as DHA and EPA come from fish oils. ALA is the health alternative for vegans or those that do not well tolerate fish oil.
