Flora's High Lignan Flax Oil is 100% pure and unrefined. This premium quality oil offers the nutritional health benefits of omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids, along with lignans which help provide natural fiber for the digestive system.*

Flax seeds are one of the richest sources of lignans, a chemical found in the cell walls of plants. The primary lignan from flax seed is secoisolariciresinol diglucoside, or SDG.

After you consume SDG, it is metabolized by the natural microflora in the gastrointestinal system into the mammalian lignans, enterodiol and enterolactone, which have antioxidant properties to support the immune system and help promote and maintain healthy cholesterol levels.* Flax seeds are also high in phytoestrogens, which have been shown to exert a positive effect on menstrual activity.*

Flora's High Lignan Flax Oil contains a minimum 10% flax particulate.

Flora Oils are truly cold-pressed, unrefined and unmodified. Most seeds used in Flora oils are grown organically by Canadian and U.S. farmers and are selected for their high quality and abundance of Essential Fatty Acids, EFAs.

EFAs such as omega-3s and omega-6s are needed by our bodies, but the body cannot make them on its own. They must be obtained from dietary sources. Using only the finest ingredients, Flora is proud to support your healthy lifestyle with a full line of Pure Premium Oils.

The quality of these oils is ensured by a third party certifying agency, Quality Assurance International (QAI). Unlike other commercially produced oils, Flora Oils are pressed in a light- and oxygen-free environment on highly sophisticated presses, where friction heat is kept well below 118˚F (50˚C) to produce truly cold-pressed oils that preserve the fragile EFAs.

These oils are then bottled in non-reactive dark brown glass bottles to prevent deterioration from light, and are stamped for freshness. As an additional protective measure, Flora uses a nitrogen flush to ensure oxidation cannot occur, and that top quality is maintained.

Made with care and the utmost attention to detail, Flora Oils retain their authentic color, delicate flavor and primary nutritional characteristics. Providing valuable essential fatty acids from natural sources, these healthful, Pure Premium Oils complement a wide variety of nutritious meals.
