Personal Wellness Benefits
- Promotes heart health
Flax seeds are a rich, plant-based source of omega-3 fatty acid ALA. Plant-based ALA fatty acids are proven to have heart health benefits and are linked to a lower risk of stroke.
- Reduces cancer risk
Flax seeds contain a group of nutrients called lignans, which have powerful antioxidant and estrogen properties. They may help in preventing breast and prostate cancer, as well as other types of cancer.

With so much fiber packed in each tiny seed, adding flax seeds to your diet promotes regular bowel movements and can improve your digestive health.

FAQs
- What is the difference between brown and golden flax seeds?
While both variants are rich in nutrients, golden flaxseeds have more polyunsaturated fatty acids and less monounsaturated fatty acids compared to brown flaxseeds. They also have larger amounts of the two essential fats that your body isn’t able to produce: alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and linoleic acid.
