Description
Our nutritionally dense flaxseed supports a balanced diet and active lifestyle.
Tastes great with porridge, cereal and yoghurt, or try sprinkling on fruit and salad.
Our Flaxseed is cold milled to protect all the nutritional goodness and Omega oils contained in the seed. Flaxseed, also known as Linseed, is one of nature's richest sources of the essential fatty acid Omega 3 (ALA).
Our body does not naturally produce Omega 3, therefore we must get this valuable fatty acid from our food, and Linwoods Flaxseed provides an easy, convenient and tasty source with 5.8g of Omega 3 per 30g. Our healthy super foods are cold milled to aid quick and easy absorption into the body, so you can feel the immediate nutritional benefit in your diet, naturally.
Health Benefits Include:
Omega 3 (ALA)* - Essential fatty acid which contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels.
Protein - Contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass and the maintenance of normal bones.
Iron - Important for oxygen transport in the body and the formation of red blood cells.
Magnesium - Beneficial for normal healthy bones and teeth and aids proper muscle function, nervous system function and energy metabolism.
*The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 2g ALA.
