Product Description

Flaxseed is a highly nutritious seed known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and heart-protective properties. Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, lignans, and fiber, flaxseed helps lower cholesterol, regulate blood pressure, and support cardiovascular health. Its high fiber content promotes digestion, prevents constipation, and supports a healthy gut microbiome. Studies suggest that flaxseed may help regulate blood sugar levels, making it beneficial for diabetes management. Additionally, the lignans in flaxseed have estrogen-like properties that may help balance hormones and reduce the risk of hormone-related cancers. While generally safe, excessive consumption may cause bloating or interact with certain medications, such as blood thinners.
