Lignans are a highly studied and researched class of plant chemicals and a form of insoluble fiber that has recently come to the forefront of nutritional research. Compelling studies funded by the National Cancer Institute have shown that lignans may possess impressive preventative properties. Research has established that the amount of lignans present in human blood samples is directly related to the amount of lignan-rich foods consumed. When flaxseed was compared to other lignan-rich foods, it was found to have 200-800 times more lignan precursors. By using the Barlean's Bio-Electron process the flax particulates (high in lignan precursors) is retained in the oil, offering nature's richest source of these valuable plant chemicals. Suggested use: 1-2 tbsp. daily. Can be used in salad dressings, mixed with yogurt, cottage cheese, oatmeal or used in blended beverages and protein drinks. Best kept refrigerated. Freezing will extend shelf life up to one year. Ingredients: 100% unrefined, unfiltered, organic flaxseed oil, flaxseed particulates. One tablespoon provides approximately: 6,200 mg Omega-3 alpha linolenic, 1,810 mg Omega-6 linoleic, 2,040 mg Omega-9 oleic, and 2,660 mg flaxseed particulate.
