Health Support - Flax Facts
Research proves everyone needs Omega-3 in their diet, and most people do not consume
enough. A shortage of Omega-3 reduces the ability for your body to efficiently function or
perform at its best. Omega-3 is vitally important in many areas of adult and child health.
According to the American Heart Association, 80 million Americans are affected by one or
more types of cardiovascular disease. Flax Seed is one of the richest sources of the omega-3
fatty acid, ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), a polyunsaturated fat that offers support for heart
health benefits.
Scientific studies reporting health benefits for omega-3 fatty acids, show that these fatty
acids are required for proper infant growth and development.

Why Flax Seed Oil?
Small Seed - Big Results!
Flax Seed Oil is nature’s richest vegetarian source of Omega-3 essential fatty acid. Essential means
just that - Essential to life!
Your body cannot exist without Essential Fatty Acids. They act as lubricants, cushions and
insulators, guarding against the stresses that we encounter. They provide structure to
all cell membranes.
Your body cannot produce essential fatty acids, so most importantly, we need to eat
them in our food everyday - they only come from food.
Today, many people are now realising that it is a necessity to consume the ‘good fats’
and reduce the ‘harmful fats’.
The table below - Shows that many of the oils and fish you eat do not contain the
Omega-3 levels that most people believe they are consuming. A deficiency of either
Omega-3 or Omega-6 may result in progressively poorer health.

Flax Seed Oil or Fish Oil?
Flax Seed Oil is the Perfect Balance – Omega-3-6-9
• Flax Seed Oil contains the primary Omega-3, alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) an
essential fatty acid from plant source.
• For the human body to function it needs and uses all of the Omega-3s, ALA,
EPA and DHA as well as Omega-6 and Omega-9.
• Humans use and benefit from the ALA, and also convert ALA in their bodies to
EPA and DHA, which are the Omega-3 essential fatty acids found in fish.
• Fish eat plants and algae rich in Omega-3 ALA, and then convert the ALA to
EPA and DHA in their bodies.
• Fish oils do not contain ALA.
• Flax Seed Oil does not contain mercury, which some fish may.
• A quality Flax Seed Oil does not use chemical processes such as bleaching
and deodorizing, which may damage the oil.
• Tru2U’s Flax Seed Oil is unrefined and cold pressed without heat or light,
to ensure quality without oxidation - no ‘burpy’ after taste!
• Flax Seed is a sustainable crop.

From the Field
• Some people believe Flax Seed Oil comes from the native New Zealand flax plant. It is actually
derived from the linseed plant.
• Linseed oil and Flax Seed Oil are both derived from the same plant.
• The difference stems from the way the oil is obtained from the seed.
• Food-grade Flax Seed Oil is cold-pressed, without heat or light, where as linseed oil is usually
extracted using a solvent, and used for industrial purposes.
• Flax Seed Oil also comes from seeds that have been breed to have more essential fatty acids.
