Produced from the popular Brown seed, and grown under NASAA full organic certification.
The nutritional benefits of Brown Flaxseed Meal are similar to those of Golden Flaxseed Meal, although the flavour is generally 'bolder'. Add to your favourite home-baking recipe for extra texture and flavour.
'Cold Pressing' is the term given to the process of mechanically separating oil from the seed by application of pressure only, without the addition of heat or chemicals. This method retains the natural structure of the oil, with all the inherent characteristics of the seed. Flaxseed Meal is the broken seed solids that remain from the cold-pressing process. This is milled to the desired grade prior to packing in food-lined cans and bags, and simply stored in a cool, dry place.

A further stage of the milling process produces a finer, more uniformly-textured flax flour.Flaxseed meal and flour are extremely rich in protein, soluble & insoluble dietary fibre, and lignans (which the body may convert into beneficial phyto-oestrogens). Both products retain an oil content of up to 10%.Flaxseed meal can be added to almost any food – eg sprinkled over breakfast cereal, natural yoghurt and fruit, mixed in fruit smoothies. It provides a nutty-tasting, nutritious alternative to bran or psyllium products.Flaxseed meal and flour are ideal additions to your home-baked fruit loaves, health bars, cakes and bread.Note: As flaxseed meal and flour are genuine high-fibre products (up to 47%), their consumption must always be accompanied by adequate fluids.
