PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The botanical name for flax of . Flax is a versatile, blue-flowered crop. The seeds for food products are harvested and then sieved through screening systems, resulting in a clean, uniform batch of whole seeds considered 99.9% pure, or human food grade. The seed itself is flat and oval with a pointed tip. It is a little larger than a sesame seed and measures about 4-6mm. The seeds have a crisp chewy texture and a pleasant, nutty flavor. Flax seeds range in color from a deep brown to a light yellow. Seed color is determined by the amount of pigment in the outer seed coat, the more pigment, the darker the seed. Seed color is easily modified through simple plant breeding techniques. Brown flaxseed is light brown to black in color. COMPOSITION Flax is rich in fat, protein, and dietary fiber. An analysis of Canadian flax averaged 41% fat, 20% protein, 28% total dietary fiber, 7.7% moisture and 3.4% ash, which is the mineral-rich residue left after samples are burned. The composition of flax can vary with genetics, growing environment, seed processing and method of analysis. The protein content of the seed decreases as the oil content increases. The oil content of flax can be altered through traditional plant breeding methods, and it is affected by geography. The cool night of northern Canada improves oil content and quality. Flax is extremely rich in Omega 3 and linolenic acid.
