Ancient seeds ultra-concentrated in vegetable omega-3 and anticancer compounds (lignans).
Small, brown or golden seeds of the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum), one of the richest sources of vegetable lignans and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). They also contain significant amounts of fiber and phenolic compounds.
Flaxseeds are a legendary source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a plant-based omega-3 that the body can partially convert into EPA and DHA. They contain the highest concentrations of lignans, polyphenols with beneficial antioxidant and hormonal properties, particularly for menopausal women. Flaxseed fiber supports digestive health and weight control. They should be ideally ground or soaked for better bioavailability.
Reduce chronic inflammation, support female hormonal health, and promote digestive health.
Consume 1-2 tablespoons (15-30g) of ground flaxseed daily, added to your breakfast or smoothies. Grind your seeds just before consumption or store ground flaxseed in the refrigerator to preserve omega-3.
