About Ground linseed

Ground linseed, also known as flaxseed meal, is derived from flax plants, native to regions of the Mediterranean and Asia. It’s a powerhouse of essential nutrients, including omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and lignans, which are plant compounds with antioxidant properties. A staple in vegetarian and vegan cuisines, it’s often used as a nutrient boost in smoothies, baked goods, and cereals or as a replacement for eggs in recipes. Ground linseed supports digestive health, heart health, and provides sustained energy, thanks to its balance of protein, healthy fats, and carbohydrates. However, intake should be moderated as it contains compounds called cyanogenic glycosides, which can be harmful in excessive amounts if not heated or processed properly. Versatile and packed with health benefits, ground linseed is a simple way to elevate nutrition in virtually any meal.
