Camelina Omega3 ® 300 is a natural remedy for lipid metabolism (triglycerides). It also has supportive and restorative action.
Natural food supplement consisting of pure oil cold extract without solvents from Camelina sativa, naturally rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids and omega 3.

The oil of Camelina:
– Improves lipid metabolism (triglycerides)
– Restorative and supportive action

For its content of ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) Camelina Omega3 ®:
– contributes to the maintenance of normal cholesterol levels
– counteracts dryness of the skin
– reduces cardiovascular risk factors
– reduces inflammation mediators
– improves the integrity of skin membranes

Camelina sativa is an oilseed known since the Bronze Age that belongs to the family of the Brassicacee as rapeseed, mustard and rapeseed. It is also called “false flax” (false flax) or “wild flax” (wild flax) because of its similarity to linseed oil.
From the harvest is also obtained an oily seed from which a very rich oil of Omega 3, Omega 6 and other polyunsaturated fatty acids is obtained. It has a perfect balance between Omega-3 and Omega-6 (ratio 2:1).  It is also an excellent source of Vitamin E with well-known antioxidant properties.

The cultivation of Camelina has the advantage of having a low environmental impact because it adapts to low temperatures and semi-arid climates. It can also be grown in marginal areas. It is a strong plant that resists diseases, pests and insects, which is why it does not need agrochemicals and herbicides.
For these reasons, the cultivation of Camelina is suitable to help the development of poorer areas and countries and also does not create pollution and overuse of land.
