FOWA FOODS 100% Natural Raw Flaxseed

Natural flax seeds are an excellent source of fiber, lignans, protein, essential fatty acids, omega 3, 6, and 9, vitamins, and minerals. Researchers believe lignans have antioxidant properties. Flaxseed has up to 8 times more lignans than other vegetables and grains and an assortment of other vitamins and minerals needed for daily health.

Research has recently shown that flax seeds may support the body’s ability to protect itself against external environmental exposures, especially concerning the lungs. A study by the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania found that flax seeds might also have a role in supporting the body’s ability to protect other healthy tissues and organs when consumed immediately before exposure. Due to their staying power, these amazing, chemically stable seeds can last for years when stored properly, possibly making them an excellent environmental protective agent.

Golden flax seeds are a superb HDL source and may help lower LDL levels, possibly supporting healthy lipid levels. Menopausal and postmenopausal women might especially benefit from flax seeds. Study results released in 2005 concluded that dietary flaxseed may reduce growth in newly diagnosed female patients due to flaxseed biological markers and lignan components.

Preparation-wise, our Natural Golden Flax Seed has similar nutritional value to brown flax seed and can be used in the same traditional ways. When preparing any flax seed, it is important to grind the seeds so they can be easily absorbed thoroughly. This allows the body to benefit from golden flax seeds’ fiber content, vitamins, minerals, and powerful antioxidants.
