Omega-3 Fatty Acids In Organic Raw Or Cold-Pressed Flaxseed Oil Protect Against First Heart Attack…
2002 -- There's more
good news for the Vegan Vegetarian. There are particular ingredients, namely
omega-3 fatty acids found in flaxseed, which aid in the prevention of
cardiovascular disease. These omega-3 fatty acids among other things do prevent
further damage in persons who have already had a heart attack. They may also
help prevent a first heart attack in both men and women, and they may even help
ward off sudden cardiac death in people without signs of cardiovascular
disease. It has been reported that "Among women, higher consumption of omega-3
fatty acids is associated with a lower risk of [heart disease], particularly
[heart-disease] death." Organic raw or cold-pressed flaxseed oil is the best
natural source of omega-3 fatty acids.
