NSI Flax Seed Lignans -- 40 mg - 120 Capsules
Super-concentrated formula.
A convenient supplement that promotes a wide range of health benefits.
How do Flax Seed Lignans work? Secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG) is the technical name for lignans, which are present in the hulls of flax seed. Compared to straight ground up flax seed, products manufactured from lignans contain up to 70 times the amount of SDG, which is the active ingredient.
Flax seed lignans may promote benefits for such concerns as prostate, bone, heart and breast health, inflammation and menopause.
NSI Liquid Purified Fish Oil Omega-3 EPA & DHA Lemon Flavor
Excellent source of omega-3 essential fatty acids DHA and EPA. Delicious lemon flavor! Can be taken by teaspoon, or added to beverages or dressings.
NSI® Liquid Purified Fish Oil contains a blend of fish oils derived from fresh, deep-sea, cold-water fish that has been molecularly distilled to ensure high-level concentration and purity. Each two-teaspoon serving provides 1,518 mg of omega-3 essential fatty acids (EFA's) eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and 966 mg docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).
Omega-3 EFA's are polyunsaturated "good" fats found in oil from cold-water fish such as salmon, mackerel and tuna, or in seeds of flax and other plants. They're classified as "essential" because your body needs them for proper health, yet cannot produce them on it own. They must be obtained through diet or supplementation.
