What You Should Know About Supplementation


 

Flaxseed Oil

 
 

 

 

    Using Flax Seed Oil on a regular basis can supply the essential fatty acids, amino acids, anti-oxidants and phyto-nutrients needed to repair nails, skin cells and hair follicles.

    It can also shield the skin from wrinkling and boost production of new skin, hair and nails. More importantly, the high lignan Omega-3 constituents of  Flaxseed Oil can lower risks of breast and colon cancer, help to restore proper metabolic function and enable the excretion of fat and toxins that are trapped within the tissues.

Flax Seed Oil and Dry Eyes

     In their healthy state, the surface of our eyes has a protective coating called tear film that helps keep the eye moist underneath.  When there is a dietary imbalance of the ratio of healthy fats (omega-3) to unhealthy fats (omega-6), the tear film becomes inflamed and weak, resulting in dry eye.

    The dry, itchy, sand-in-your-eye feeling known as "dry eye" affects over 59 million Americans and is their top complaint at the eye doctor.  And, it is also a major complaint of those who undergo lasik, laser or other kinds of corrective eye surgery

    Recently, researchers in the Harvard Women's Health Study have discovered a dietary link to this irritating condition: a lack of healthy fats in the diet.

   Specifically, eating sufficient quantities of omega-3 fatty acids and keeping omega-6 fatty acids to a minimum helped to significantly lower study subjects' risk of developing dry eye.
