"The presence of high energy pi-electrons found in the two fatty acids of flaxseed oil, allows the body much greater assimilation and transport capacity of oxygen which enhances the normal metabolic requirements of oxidation and detoxification of cellular waste. These unsaturated fatty acids also repair and restore the lipid membranes of all cells in the body, improving intra and extracellular osmotic potentials and mineral balances. These two marvelous fatty acids, linolenic and linoleic acids, are found in very high concentrations in flaxseed oil. They are essential ingredients in many important bodily functions including the production of prostaglandins, which play a major role in the inflammatory response of the body to injury and disease; enzyme activity of the brain; the clotting mechanism of blood; blood flow and blood pressure; repair of injury to the inside walls of arteries; prevention of the aggregation of platelets in the blood which minimizes plaque formations and clots and a host of other functions." |
