- Providing essential fatty acids - EFAs*
- Development of brain, eyes & nervous system*
DHA, or Docosahexaenoic Acid, is an omega-3 fatty acid that is essential for the proper functioning of our brains as adults, and for the development the nervous system and visual abilities during the first six months of life.* This makes DHA supplementation important for pregnant and nursing women.*
Flora's DHA Flax Oil is a vegetarian source of unrefined DHA, blended with organic Flora Flax Oil to provide you with a DHA-rich oil from tank-grown algae, not fish. Because Flora DHA Flax Oil uses only cultivated algae instead of fish oil, it is naturally free of ocean-borne contaminants like PCBs, dioxins and mercury. As an added environmental benefit, cultivated algae are a completely renewable resource that does not have a detrimental impact on the depletion of fisheries anywhere in the world.
Flora’s DHA Oil is blended with Flora's Flax Oil, which is cold-pressed from certified organic flax seeds that have been carefully selected for flavor and maturity. The seeds are pressed in a state-of-the-art, low-heat, light-and oxygen-free environment and then bottled in environmentally friendly, light-resistant amber glass to ensure maximum nutritional value and freshness.* This gluten-free unrefined oil contains no GMO material and is processed without hexane extraction in a GMP, Kosher facility in order to control to purity.

ASSISTS WITH:
- Providing EFAs*
- Increasing energy, stamina, metabolism*
- Skin irritations*
Flax-O-Mega® capsules are cold-pressed from certified organic flax seeds to provide the Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) required for optimal health.
Omega-3 and omega-6 EFAs are necessary for the normal functioning of every cell, tissue, gland and organ. Since the body cannot make EFAs on its own, they must come from foods or dietary supplements.
Because omega-6s are found in a wide variety of foods, most people consume adequate amounts of this essential fatty acid. In fact, many people overindulge in foods that contain omega-6s. These items include polyunsaturated vegetable oils made from safflower, sunflower, soybean, sesame, pumpkin, wheat germ, corn, cottonseed, walnut and wheat germ. Seeds and nuts are rich in omega-6s and so are most meats, fast foods and snack foods.
Omega-3s are more likely to be lacking in the average person’s diet, because there are relatively few foods that contain these important foundational fats. Dietary sources include oils from fish as well as some plants and nuts. Omega-3s are found in oil from halibut, salmon, sardines, mackerel and tuna. Vegetable oils, such as soybean, olive, canola and flax seed contain alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a type of omega-3 fatty acid.
Flax oil is one of the richest sources of omega-3s. It is also less expensive and does not contain environmental toxins as is often the case with fish.
The effects of Omega-3 deficiency include:
- Low energy
- Weakness
- Impaired vision and learning
- Poor motor coordination
- Tingling sensation in limbs
- Behavioral changes
- High serum triglycerides; high blood pressure; sticky platelets (tendency to form clots in blood vessels)
- Water retention (edema) due to inflammation and kidney deterioration
- Problems associated with skin, joints, digestion, connective tissue, kidneys and other glands, organs and tissues
- Weakened immune response
- Mental deterioration
- Low metabolic rate
- Weight gain
USEFUL FOR:
- Exerting a positive influence on skin irritations.*
- Increasing energy levels, metabolism and stamina.*
- Providing required levels of omega-3 EFAs, including during pregnancy and nursing for the optimal growth and development of children.*

- Helps to enhance cognitive function and memory in an aging population.
- Also supports peripheral circulation, which is blood flow that reaches the upper and lower extremities of the body and the surface of the skin.
Ginkgo biloba seems to improve blood circulation, which helps the brain, eyes, ears, and legs function better. It may slow down Alzheimer’s disease by interfering with changes in the brain that interfere with thinking. By improving blood circulation, Ginkgo Biloba improves conditions including memory loss, headache, ringing in the ears,vertigo, difficulty concentrating, mood disturbances, and hearing disorders. Some people use it for other problems related to poor blood flow in the body, including leg pain when walking (claudication), and Raynaud’s syndrome (a painful response to cold, especially in the fingers and toes).

Vegetarian-Sourced DHA Blended with Udo’s Oil™
Made with DHA sourced from unrefined algae, not fish,Udo’s Oil™ DHA 3•6•9 Blend offers you vitally important omega-3 fatty acids made from completely sustainable plant sources. A renewable resource, cultivated tank-grown algae has no detrimental impact on worldwide fisheries. We get our DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) the same way fish get theirs—directly from algae. Because it’s tank grown-algal sourced, this DHA product is free from ocean-borne contaminants.
DHA supports the proper functioning of our brains as adults, and supports the normal physical development of the brain, eyes and nerves, primarily in children under two years of age. One serving of Udo’s DHA Oil Blend provides 100 milligrams of DHA omega-3 fatty acids.
Udo’s Oil™ DHA 3•6•9 Blend combines DHA-rich algae with a special formulation of natural, unrefined oils from fresh organic flax, sunflower, sesame and evening primrose seeds as well as oils from coconut and rice bran. DHA is one of the most important long-chain fatty acids in the omega-3 family: the majority of the fatty acids found in the brain and in the retina are in the form of DHA. The body can convert DHA to EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), an omega-3 fatty acid that is a precursor to the production of prostaglandins which help promote good health.
