 cheap vegan source of omega-3s Jul 11, 2009
By Aaron Marcuse-Kubitza
Flaxseed oil is a great vegan source of omega-3 fatty acids. When purchased in a bottle, it normally must be refrigerated and goes bad in a few weeks, but these pills take away the hassle by packaging the oil in vegan cellulose capsules. I have read widely varying estimates of the RDA for omega-3 fatty acids, so I just take one capsule a day, which contains 550mg of alpha linolenic acid (omega-3). This costs me only 10 cents a day to have the health benefits of omega-3s!

Quality Product, Makes Me Feel Great, Responsible Company Aug 24, 2009
By Jack Jack
"Pups"
It's virtually impossible to find capsuled flax seed oil without gelatin. When I didn't really know (or rather didn't really want) to care that I was ingesting gelatin, I took flax seed oil capsules that did wonders for me. I remember having so much energy, never getting sick and just feeling great when I had it.
Recently, I've become more careful about what I eat and didn't want to have gelatin in my diet (I am vegetarian). I started purchasing raw flax seeds and incorporating a tsp or so in my food. The effect of that was nowhere near what I experienced with flax seed capsules. Also, the caloric value of the seeds itself was pretty ridiculous compared to the capsules. (I take 3 capsules and it's just about 20 calories)
I was ecstatic to find Deva's vegan flax seed oil supplements. I immediately ordered this on Amazon (free super saver) and it literally arrived in 3 days! I've had 3 capsules everyday since. I've been able to work out for hours without feeling tired, I feel more alert during the day, I feel well...I honestly feel like I could conquer the world. Looking at Deva's website, I also feel good about my purchase. This is a responsible company that takes its customer's well being seriously. It puts quality, cruel-free ingredients into its products and should be supported.
I find these capsules have really helped me in many good ways and I look forward to the long-term great effects flax seed oil will have on my health!

Good Flax Oil product Feb 09, 2009
By S. Carter
Though I don't mind the taste of flax oil that much I know some people do. I tried this product and found it very good in terms of masking the taste of flax oil. If you are one of those people who cannot stomach flax oil this is a great product for you. Capsule is vegan so are the rest of the ingredients. Thanks Amazon for carrying it.

 Low dose per capsule May 27, 2010
By N. Barton
Just so you know, according to the Vegetarain Society, the RDA for Omega 3 is 2-3g. This means you need 4-6 capsules of the product daily making 18 daily doses per bottle. Nevertheless, this is comparable in cost to plain Flax speed oil.

Great Vegan Source for Good Cholesterol and Omega-3!! May 24, 2010
By Joey Fisher
"Joey"
One of the only vegetarian flax-oil filled capsules I could find! Most other capsules are made of gelatin! The other alternative is to get flax oil in a bottle and take it by the spoonful - yuck! Well you can also put it on salads and stuff, so it may not be too bad, but I find the capsules much easier!
I'll find out if it's working when I have a blood test after a month or two to see if my good cholesterol (HDL) levels have increased. My good cholesterol level was extremely low on my last blood test. This is partially due to be being vegan/vegetarian. My blood test showed am a fairly healthy vegan besides this and having low vitamin D, for which I am taking 2000 IU of D2.
