Benefits
Flax seeds are known for their many health benefits, which include providing a hearty dose of protein and fibre, reducing appetite and aiding in weight control.
- The Accept Organic flaxseed oil is loaded with heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.
- Flaxseed oil has a wide variety of uses, ranging from cooking to skin care.
- Flaxseed oil improves the elasticity of the arteries.
- Flaxseeds are believed to reduce inflammation.
The high concentration of Omega-3 makes flaxseed oil one of the most potent anti-inflammatory ingredients and therefore it is very efficient at soothing dry, irritated skin. It locks in the water molecules in the skin, keeping it hydrated.
Additionally, Omega-3 refreshes skin cells and rebalance any discoloration, making it firmer, more elastic, and provide you with an overall clearer looking skin. Applying flaxseed oil directly over the skin, especially in people with psoriasis, can offer the skin with essential fatty acids it may lack.
Usage
