“Here we have a bottle containing 120 Organic Flaxseed Oil Capsules from Vegavero, which are 100% vegan, and they’re just up my street.
Flaxseed oil is a source of omega 3 fatty acids which are essential to maintain healthy brain and cardiovascular functions. Therefore taking them regularly is good for the heart, brain and blood circulation. I’ve been taking fish oil capsules for years, and the advantage of the vegan friendly capsules here, is that no fish have been killed. I’ll be pleased about that, when I get round to taking them ( I’m currently working my way through some other vegan capsules, which were sourced from the algae that oily fish eat, which is where the fish get their omega 3 from ).
I advice you to take one capsule a day, with food, which is what I’ll do, and therefore we’ll have four months supply.I also have actual flaxseeds in my porridge every morning, for the same reasons, btw. I’m whole heartedly ( no pun intended ) recommending these capsules to you… :).”
“This bottle is 3/4 full of capsules so not too much wasted packaging which is always a good start. The capsules are a manageable size and I like how they look (with the oil moving about inside).
I usually take a fish oil supplement but thought I would swap to this one for a while.
I can't see any difference in the effects on my health from my regular supplements which is unsurprising.
Taking the recommended dose makes these tablets cost 31p per day which is quite expensive although that seems to be standard for these supplements so that wouldn't put me off. Fish oil is definitely cheaper though and I think I'll revert to that.”
“As I have high cholesterol and I'm struggling to add flaxseed in my daily menu, I decided just to grab this as a solution. Hope it will contribute to the process to lower my cholesterol. I love that it's organic too.”
“I have been using Flaxseed Oil Capsules for a number of years now, they help to manage my IBS symptoms to maintain healthy digestion in addition to the other meds I’m prescribed from my GP for the same condition.
I have been living with IBS for a long while & over the years I must have tried just about every medication or supplement on the market which claimed to help with this, even down to drinking Kombucha & Bay Leaf Tea, most had little effect but these flaxseed oil capsules I couldn’t be without!
My condition negatively impacts everyday of my life with cramps, pain, bloating, constipation & diarrhoea, anyone living with a chronic condition such as this will know how debilitating it can be to you living your life, not only dealing with the physical effects but also the psychological impacts it can have on you so if you find something that brings a bit of relief you cling to it, taking just 1 of these daily helps me.
Flaxseed Oil is sometimes referred to as Linseed Oil, it has many more health benefits too, it is high in Omega-3 fatty acids similar to Cod Liver Oil but without being a byproduct of fish - great for vegans!
It also may help to reduce inflammation & maintain healthy skin & heart.”
“I really like this German company and have ordered a number of their products. As a vegan it is an excellent way to get your omegas. They come in gel capsules that are of typical size for capsules, possibly slightly bigger than normal. I find them easy enough to swallow. You are getting 120 of them and if you stick to the recommended dosage of two daily then they will last you two months. The fact that this is a vegan brand is excellent as you know that not only are the omega oils vegan sourced but the capsules are too. You get an expiry date of a year from the time of ordering so plenty of time to use.”
“I’ve read articles recommending flaxseed oil for soothing kp and for creating softer new hair growth. However supplements high in omega 6 can come with some pretty gnarly side effects for anyone who’s acne prone, this includes painful inflamed cystic acne on your cheeks and jawline.
I’ve avoided acne break outs whilst taking this supplement by only taking one capsule a day, 4-5 days a week with two capsules of the Omvits vegan omega 3 dha supplement. The only benefits I’ve experienced so far is softer skin and a moisturised scalp (no flaking or dandruff)
Will update in a month if there is any other noticeable benefits and to see if it reduces kp.”
“I usually don’t stray from H&B for supplements but wanted to give these a go. They are well packaged and the dark green container protects the oil from harmful light. The capsules are lightweight in an easy to swallow size (much smaller than ones I’ve had before - so this was very welcome). The product seems very good quality and the price is comparable to other companies’ flaxseed oil supplements, so this is a good alternative if you want to shop for supplements on Amazon.”
