A friend tells me that taking Flaxseed Oil keeps her regular. I don't see that listed as a benefit of taking Flaxseed or any Omega3. Anyone know?

Hi! I have read that too, but it hasn't affected me like that. But, I am on some other things that could counteract it. But I can tell you the positives for me. It has helped my cholestrol. My doctor advised along with Mega DHA by Jarrow. I take two each of these daily. Extra benefit: my nails are hard as bricks! Hope this helps!

I'm not sure what you mean by regular but the benefits of flaxseed is: Protecting against cancer, Lowering cholesterol, Preventing hot flashes, Improving blood sugar, and Protecting against radiation

The ultra with Omega-3 was the first Move Free product I have used. My husband and I have good resultswith the ultra Omega-3. My husband had pain in his knee and I had arthritis pain prior to take the UltraOmega-3.

I've stuck with this brand for a while. The most economical! I eat plenty of fish also. Taking this every day(I only take 2 a day instead of the recommended 3) gives you a consistent level of fish oil(I don't eat fish every day). I think if you google the vitamin A amount in this product(255-900I.U) you'll see that's not a high dose at all.

I concur with the previous two responders. If you are interested in the health benefits of coconut oil, you need to look at unrefined organic extra virgin olive oil.

honestly, i have not been taking the Omega XL in the past year. I simply take the Carlson's Cod Liver Oil from Norway and it seems to be doing the job. I don't have any inflammatory conditions, etc. so i could not speak to those.

Research in Germany and (Denmark too I believe)...shows that your Omega 3 index increases faster with the Triglyceride form...and there is quicker absorption too...so you get more for your $ :)

Whole flaxseeds don't go rancid, and they keep amazingly well with very little effort. Once the shell is cracked, however, the oil within them will quickly go rancid. I've been buying flaxseeds in bulk for years. I don't worry about air tight containers, nor keeping them cool (although the latter can't hurt). Mostly, you want to keep them dry and away from pests (e.g. rodents, insects, etc.) I keep them in their original bag, with the top rolled down and a bungee cord to keep it in place. It wouldn't hurt to freeze the seeds to kill any insect eggs, but i've never had a problem so i don't usually bother to do this.

It depends on what you want to achieve with them. DHA improves brain function and EPA reduces inflammation. It is good to have a balance, but again it depends on what you are taking omegas for.

Yes, this is ground flaxseed. Too many products make claims about fiber from flaxseed, but unless the seed is ground, it provides little benefit, unless you chew each and every flaxseed. Buy with confidence.

Well I'm not taking it to reduce belly fat. This is the best fish oil that I have found but only take it once a day if I remember. :| I can't say if it's reduced any belly fat.

Mine did not arrive refrigerated, I just refrigerated after opening. I've seen reference to the need to keep flax oil refrigerated at all times, but it is my understanding that even the big name brand, if asked, will say it is not necessary until opened.

I think the bottle recommends having it with a fatty food or meal. This is NOT ubiquinone. It is ubiquinol, the form recommended for adults (over 40?). It's more easily absorbed. I take it at the same time I take my fish oil. For other daily doses, I make sure I have a cracker with almond butter or a piece of cheese. The bottle sayd: "We highly recommend taking this product with a source of essential fatty acids such as NOW flax oil, Evening Primrose Oil, Borage Oil, or Omega-2 Fish Oil."

hey if you have a Target they usually have a lot of different coconut oils to choose from. At our store its in the cooking oil section. I cook with the refined. The refined you still get the health benefits.

I don't know. However their products were highly recommended to me years ago for their potency and I've taken them ever since. The Omega 3 is excellent. My opinion, I think their products are first class. I hope this helps you.

I went to Nature Made and I construed that they sold off ALL of the flaxseed oil inventory, as none appear on that site. Moreover, the site page has a duration of mere minute(s), another worry-some factor. Last, the label would identify the strength off the Omega3 content (Alpha L., Linoleic Acid and Oleic Acid) . Anyway, Puritan Pride's figures are best: 500, 110 and 110mgs, respectively. Pricing is best, too. Shop you must. Amazon is best for that. Rosie-39@ live.com

You want more EPA so you can have therapeutic effect. Go here and read more about it. http://igennus.com/nutrition/omega-3-science/epa-vs-dha/
