Recommendation

We suggest everyone starts with flax boost for 1 -2 months and then try switching to flax original, unless you have one of the below conditions, in which case you should stay on flax boost.

Babies and children, the elderly and those with a chronic health condition such as diabetes, hormonal imbalances or inflammatory conditions may have inefficiencies in the way they metabolise essential fatty acids. Therefore if you fall into any of these groups, flax boost should be your first choice. flax magic is the blend of choice for babies and children and flax bloom is recommended for pregnant or lactating women.

If you have been taking flax seed oil for a long period of time and have been watching your diet you may imbalance the other way and have too much Omega-3 in your system. Your original symptoms may return (e.g. dry skin). This is your signal to switch to flax balance. flax balance is a high quality source of Omega-3 and Omega-6 with a 1:1 ratio.
