What it is

Flax lignans are a group of naturally occurring plant compounds found in flaxseeds. They are extracted from flaxseed and are often concentrated to create a supplement or food ingredient.

Why it's used

Flax lignans are added to foods for their potential health benefits, particularly as a source of antioxidants. They are most commonly found in snack bars, energy bars, and granola bars.

Health notes

Flax lignans are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Research suggests they may have antioxidant properties. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated lignans, but no specific numeric limits were set. Evidence on specific health effects is ongoing and may be mixed.

Allergen info

Flaxseed is not one of the FDA's 9 major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
