- taking care of your child's fatty acid needs
What is it?
Flax Seed Oil is regulated as a food in New Zealand and Australia. It keeps you healthy and vibrant as part of a balanced diet.
Because the goodness of pure, fresh, cold pressed brown flax seed oil is enriched with hemp, blackcurrant, golden flax and evening primrose seed oils, this blend has a balanced fatty acid profile that includes five important polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids, to give your child the very best start in life.
Because a child on the average modern diet will be lacking in Omega-3, this blend provides twice as much Omega-3 as Omega-6. Because it contains both primary and secondary Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, it is easy for the developing body to use, ensuring your child has the building blocks he or she needs for a healthy brain and nervous system and for general health of all body cells.
Why use it?
- flax magic is the product of choice for infants and children, who may not yet be efficient at converting ALA and LA to the secondary Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids.
- If Mum is breast-feeding, baby will derive the benefit through her milk if she takes a waihi bush organic farm oil. Otherwise, add flax magic to baby's food.
Description
flax magic is pressed from certified organic seed from the flax plant Linum usitatissimum (Linseed), hemp, golden flax and evening primrose plants. Uncertified blackcurrant seed oil is added. The oil is high quality, extra virgin, unrefined, and containing no toxic substances or cholesterol. The oils are cold pressed in the absence of light, air and reactive metals and packaged in black HDPE plastic to further protect it against light damage.
