Omega 3, 6 & 9
Polyunsaturated fatty acids used by the body that may help maintain a healthy heart, health brain function and promote a health immune system. These are essential fatty acids as our body does not produce them and therefore they must be obtained through our food. Flaxseed is one of nature’s richest plant sources of Omega 3, with 7.2g of this essential fatty acid in every 30g/1oz serving.

B Vitamins
These are water soluble vitamins, meaning they are quickly depleted in the body and must be replaced regularly. Complex B vitamins can maintain healthy body metabolism by assisting in breaking carbohydrates down into glucose and converting glucose to energy. They can also maintain a healthy heart function (Vitamin B1) and the normal functioning of the nervous system. Vitamin B deficiency can lead to decreased energy production, lethargy and fatigue.

Co-Enzyme Q10
Co-Q10 occurs naturally in the body but natural production declines with age so dietary sources are important to help maintain adequate levels. Co-Q10 contributes to the production of energy in every cell in the body and improves the way the body functions. It is also a highly effective antioxidant.
