Flax seed is the seed of the flax (Linum usitatissimum L). The typical use of flaxseed is as a source of the essential fatty acids. Flaxseed is also rich in lignans, secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG), which are known to possess various pro- estrogenic properties. It has a balancing effect on hormones. Lignans also exhibit strong antioxidant activities and have numerous biological properties. Flax lignans are being hailed as one of the emerging new active ingredients benefits to both men's and women's health. As more and more research is being completed, the scientific community continues to uncover new and exciting news about lignans.

Usage:
Because of the good solubility of high quality SDG in water and in alcohol, and its bright color and meaningful results, Flax seed extract has been widely used in drink and wine. It be used as one natural function ingredient to resist oxidation. It can be also added to variety of common food.
Function:
1. Lower blood lipids, prevent coronary heart disease and atherosclerosis: α-linolenic acid (LNA) in flaxseed can significantly reduce serum triglycerides and cholesterol.
2. Anti-tumor: α-linolenic acid and its derivatives EPA and DHA can prevent tumor occurrence and inhibit tumor cell proliferation.
3. Prevent colon cancer, prostate cancer, and thymus cancer: It has been proven that lignans can inhibit the activity of the enzyme (cholesterol-7α-hydrolase) that promotes the formation of primary bile acid, thereby affecting the metabolism of bile acid and cholesterol to prevent colon cancer. cancer effects. Studies have shown that high levels of EL in prostatic fluid can reduce the incidence of prostate cancer. The lignans in flaxseed can promote the production of ED and EL, thereby preventing the occurrence of prostate cancer. Clinical studies have shown that flaxseed lignans can reduce the size and number of breast tumors and are closely related to the prevention of breast cancer.
4. Prevent diabetes: The rich soluble fiber in flaxseed can also reduce the production of postprandial blood sugar and the response to elevated blood-insulin, delay gastric emptying, delay the digestion of starch in the small intestine or slow down the digestion of glucose in the intestine. Absorption also has a preventive effect on the occurrence of diabetes.
5. Strengthen the brain and improve eyesight: α-linolenic acid can be converted into DHA in the liver. DHA is known as "brain gold" in China. It can not only prevent and treat cardiovascular diseases, but more importantly, DHA has the ability to easily pass through blood vessels. The characteristics of entering brain cells are essential substances to maintain the normal physiological functions of cranial nerves and meninges, and play an important role in the formation, growth and development of brain cells.
