What it is

Flaxseed fiber is a type of soluble and insoluble fiber derived from flaxseeds. It is produced by processing flaxseeds to isolate the fibrous components, often through mechanical methods or milling.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add flaxseed fiber to foods to increase their fiber content, acting as a nutritional enhancer. It can also contribute to texture and binding. It is commonly found in baked goods, cereals, and snack products.

Health notes

Flaxseed fiber is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Diets rich in fiber are associated with improved digestive health. The WHO and EFSA have also recognized the health benefits of dietary fiber. While generally considered beneficial, consuming large amounts of fiber without adequate fluid intake can lead to digestive discomfort.

Allergen info

Flaxseed is not one of the nine FDA major allergens. Flaxseed fiber is also gluten-free.
