USER'S OPINION  

FAQ
What is the EPA and DHA content in Doctor's Choice Flax Oil Plus?
Doctor's Choice Flax Oil Plus contains the eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) precursor, linolenic acid (LNA). LNA, an omega 3 essential fatty acid, is converted to EPA and DHA in the body. The manufacturer has confirmed that approximately 6 percent of LNA is converted to EPA and 4 percent is converted to DHA. Thus, one serving (one tablespoon or 14 softgels) of Doctor's Choice Flax Oil Plus, which contains 5,250 mg of LNA, provides approximately 315 mg EPA and 210 mg DHA. Keep in mind that these amounts are approximations, actual amounts can be highly variable across the population.

Is flaxseed oil more beneficial than fish oil?
There are positive health benefits associated with both flaxseed oil and fish oil. Research has shown that both fish oil and flaxseed oil support healthy lipid (triglycerides and cholesterol) metabolism, circulation, and cardiovascular function. Fish oil, however, contains fatty acids in the form utilized by the body; the fats in flaxseed must first be converted by the body before they can be utilized. GUARANTEE/ SHIPPING INFORMATION
