What it is

Fermented oregano and flaxseed is a food ingredient created by fermenting oregano and flaxseed. Fermentation is a process that uses microorganisms, like bacteria or yeast, to break down substances. This process can alter the flavor, texture, and nutritional profile of the original ingredients.

Health notes

Fermented oregano and flaxseed is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. Both oregano and flaxseed contain various compounds that may have health benefits, such as antioxidants. However, specific health effects of the fermented form at typical consumption levels have not been extensively studied. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated related compounds, but no specific evaluations for this fermented blend are widely published.
