What it is
Milled flax seeds are whole flax seeds that have been ground into a coarse or fine powder. Flax seeds come from the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum), which is grown for its fiber and seeds. The seeds are typically harvested, cleaned, and then milled.
Why it's used
Milled flax seeds are often added to foods as a source of dietary fiber and omega-3 fatty acids. They can also act as a binder, similar to eggs, in baked goods. They are frequently found in breads, cereals, muffins, and energy bars.
Health notes
Milled flax seeds are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They are a good source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 fatty acid, and soluble and insoluble fiber. Some research suggests that flax seeds may have a beneficial effect on heart health and digestion, though more research is needed. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated flax seeds.
Allergen info
Flax seeds are not one of the nine major allergens identified by the FDA. They do not contain gluten.
