Flax seeds are thought to have originated in the ancient Middle East during biblical times. They are an important source of polyunsatured fatty acids, including Omega-3, plus Magnesium, Zinc and dietary fiber. Flax oil from flax seeds is the richest known source of linolenic acid. It contains protein, mucilage, phytosterols and lignans, which are naturally included at 100 times the level of the next best source, wheat bran.
 
Suggested Use: Grind your own seeds on a daily basis for the freshest and healthiest seed oil. Add to cereals, salads and blender drinks. Take with plenty of fluids
