Background Info:
Flax seed, also known as linseed, is noted to have high nutritional value. In particular, flax seeds contain a high content of alpha-linolenic fatty acids (an essential omega-3 fatty acid) and fibre. In fact, more than 70% of fat in flax is of the healthful polyunsaturated type. A unique feature of flax is the high ratio of alpha-linolenic acid (an omega-3 fatty acid) to linoleic acid (an omega-6 fatty acids).
Flax seeds contain generous quantities of both soluble and insoluble fibres.
At Pet Grocer we recommend the use of freshly ground flax seeds as another way to add certain Omega 3s to your pet's diet.
