Flaxseed Extract

What Is Linum usitatissimum (Flaxseed)?

Linum usitatissimum, also known as common flax or linseed, is a domesticated plant grown for use in food and textiles. It has small, tan-colored seeds, which are loaded with minerals, such as manganese and thiamine, and are great sources of dietary fiber. One of the most abundant forms of plant-based protein, Linum usitatissimum seeds (flaxseed) are also filled with heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.

Omega-3 fatty acids are a type of polyunsaturated fatty acid that your body doesn’t naturally produce on its own and which may have many benefits.

Linum usitatissimum (flaxseed) has an earthy-nutty flavor that complements a lot of sweet and savory foods. Now an emerging superfood, its name means “the most useful” due to its many uses.
