About Flaxseed Oil
Flax is a plant with seeds filled with flaxseed oil, which contains more than twice as much omega-3 oil as fish oils.

They can also help support healthy bone density, energy endurance, a healthy cardiovascular system, and cholesterol levels.

5.0 out of 5 stars Flaxseed Oil by Barlean's, September 5, 2005

(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   

I started taking Flax Oil for a number of reasons. A chiropractor friend suggested I take it for joint inflammation, and in researching the product, I found out it has other benefits as well. Since starting Flax, my joint pain is no longer significant, I have dropped 3-5 points in my diastolic blood pressure, and my total cholesterol and LDL are significantly lower. I surely cannot attribute all these positive benefits to flax oil alone, as I have instituted other dietary and exercise protocols as well. However, my research indicates that flax oil benefits all the conditions I mentioned. After several bottles of Barlean's Flax Oil, I switched to Swanson's brand of Flax Oil due to the lower cost. I did not notice any difference in efficacy between the two brands. Some claim that Swanson's has a bitter taste to it. Since I mix mine in with salad oil dressing, any flax taste is masked by the dressing.

Flax is a plant. The seeds in the flax plant are filled with flaxseed oil, (sometimes called linseed oil). The seeds contain fatty oils called alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and linoleic acid. ALA is the omega-3 oil in flaxseed. Flaxseed contains both omega-3 fatty acids and omega-6 fatty acids. Flaxseed is nature's richest storehouse of omega-3 fatty acids, and contains more than twice as much omega-3 oil as fish oils, and it costs less , ounce for ounce. Flax also contains other important substances like lignans, which may protect against some types of cancer. The husks of the seeds are rich in mucilage. Both the seed oil and mucilage have many nutritional and therapeutic properties.

There are many potential benefits from taking Flax seed oil:

Flaxseed Oil lowers cholesterol levels, thereby improving cardiovascular health and lessening the risk of arteriosclerosis.

Flaxseed also contains plant nutrients like phytoestrogens. These are natural estrogen-like substances that can lessen the discomfort of menopause.

Flaxseed oil may lower high blood pressure.

Flaxseed oil helps some people improve their psoriasis and eczema, as it has anti-inflammatory properties. Flaxseed may also reduce the itching, swelling, and redness associated with certain skin disorders such as acne.

Flaxseed oil has a positive effect on rheumatoid arthritis due to its ability to calm inflammation.

Flaxseed reduces LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol (the body's "bad cholesterol") and lowers triglyceride levels. Research shows that flaxseed oil gives much better protection against heart attacks than canola oil or olive oil.

Taking flaxseed may reduce cancer risk. This is because flaxseed contains the richest sources of lignan building blocks, which play a major role in preventing cardiovascular diseases and cancer. New research indicates that the lignans in flaxseed have both short-term and long-term protective effects against colon cancer.

It is always important to purchase you Flaxseed Oil from a well-known reputable company. One tip: keep your flaxseed oil away from light and heat, as both degrade the oil. If you purchase a bottle of flaxseed oil, make sure to refridgerate it after opening.

The usual beneficial dose of Flaxseed Oil is 2-3 grams once per day taken with a meal. Barlean's is pure Flax oil. Measure out the dose you wish to take and drink it or put it on a salad (or whatever).

The benefits of Flaxseed Oil are cumulative. Commit to taking it every day without fail. Like any herbal supplement, don't expect dramatic quick results. The results you get will be subtle at first and then build over time. For specific conditions such as Rhematoid arthritis, exzema, psoriasis, acne, etc,. the results should be apparent in 4-8 weeks. Be patient! Know that even if you don't "feel" different, you are sill protecting your body from the harmfull effects of many disease conditions.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best way to take flax oil, September 29, 2007

By 

PenaltyShot (CA) - See all my reviews

Barlean's flax oil is the best value for the money, and REFRIGERATED liquid flax oil is the best way to take flax. I mix this with cottage cheese, following Dr. Johanna Budwig's advice, along with fruit juice or protein powder/milk for flavor, and it turns out great.

Omega-3 and 6 fatty acids are so beneficial to health. But you probably know that already or you would not be here on this page.

I've only bought this from my local health food store, which has it in a refrigerated section. This is necessary because flax oil very quickly breaks down and loses its potency when exposed to heat, air and/or light. So my question for Amazon is, how is this shipped? Hopefully it is kept cold; either that or shipped VERY quickly.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT QUALITY & PACKAGING, August 21, 2006

This packaging can't be beat. The flip top cap has a NO SPILL spout and it really works! You can hold the bottle upside down with out the cap on, and it won't spill a drop!

Barlean's has a lot of other things going for its Flaxseed Oil WITH Lignans, such as: it's really great for Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia sufferers. SHAKE BOTTLE HARD BEFORE EACH USE, so that your oil comes out in a "bronze" color. That way you'll be getting a perfect balance of lignans.

A lot of my customer's use it mixed in equal portions for their dog's and cat's that have tumors and cancers. Great Stuff and it's even cheaper to buy it here than for me to buy it locally...go figure!

Jim wrote a wonderfully informative review, and I want to add that because I'm on a health & wellness educating mission...I choose this product for myself, my family and my customers!
