Common Uses

What are the benefits of Flax bloom? Flax bloom is the product of choice for women who are wanting to become pregnant, are pregnant or are breast feeding.

If Mum is breast-feeding, baby will derive the benefit through her milk.

These are just some of the reasons why women should use Flax bloom: If mum is breastfeeding, baby will derive the benefit through the mothers milk. Because a women on the average modern diet will be lacking in Omega-3, this blend provides twice as much Omega-3 as Omega-6 to provide the crucial Omega-3s needed to build a healthy brain and body for the baby.

The brain is developed in utero and supplementation with essential fatty acids during this time aids in the "hardwiring" process in the brain of a newborn, for things such as vision, feelings, movement and language.

It can even help sleeping patterns. Recent research is linking brain disorders as diverse as post natal depression and Attention Deficit (hyperactivity) Disorder (ADD/ADHD) with a lack of Omega-3.

Because a woman on the average modern diet will be lacking in Omega-3, this blend provides twice as much Omega-3 as Omega-6 to provide the crucial Omega-3s needed to build a healthy brain and body for the baby.

The brain is developed in utero and supplementation with Essential Fatty Acids during this time aids in the "hardwiring" process in the brain of a newborn for things such as vision, feelings, movement and language, it can even help sleeping patterns!

The blackcurrant and evening primrose seed oils contribute the secondary Omega-3, stearidonic acid (SDA) and the secondary Omega-6, gamma linolenic acid (GLA), which are easier for your body to utilise because no conversion is required, ensuring your developing baby has the building blocks they need for a healthy brain, eye and nervous system and for general health of all body cells.

The pumpkin seed oil provides phytosterols (which possess anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidation activities) and a wide range of vitamins (E and A) and minerals (selenium, zinc, calcium, copper, iron, manganese).

The coconut oil provides lauric acid, which is the main fatty acid in breast milk and contributes to increased metabolic rate/energy levels and healthy skin.
