Flax Hull Lignans 150 grams Bulk Herb

Flax is one of the most ancient of useful herbs. Flax was traditionally used for culinary and healing purposes. The essential fatty acids in flax oil are the best-known constituents in the flax seed for providing health benefits.

Recent studies have revealed that the substance called “lignan” within the flax seed may surpass flax oil in its health benefits. Lignans are a group of phytonutrients (plant nutrients) which are found in seeds, grains and vegetables. Flax seed is by far nature’s richest source of plant lignans.

The lignans are found in the fibre hull of the seed. Flax seed contains a total of 27 different lignans, the first one being SDG. (secoisolariciresinol diglycoside).


Features & Benefits •NSP’s Flax Hull Lignans are derived through a unique mechanical extraction process that leaves all 27 lignans in the final product. Many other companies use a chemical extraction that is less efficient and only retains the SDG. •NSP’s Flax Hull Lignans are sourced from organically-grown brown flax, and the product is certified organic. •NSP’s Flax Hull Lignans contain 8 – 9% lignans, while most other competitive products contain only 1.6% lignans. •SDG lignan is a potent antioxidant and has also been shown to enhance immune system functioning. •Lignans are considered phytoestrogens. These compounds are able to mimic the hormone estrogen in the body and may reduce the effects of estrogen overload. Label Description:
