What it is
Flax seed is the tiny seed of the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum), which has been cultivated for thousands of years. Organic sprouted flax seed has undergone a germination process, which may increase nutrient availability. The seeds are typically dried after sprouting.
Why it's used
Flax seed is used as a source of fiber, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids. Manufacturers add it to foods like chips, pretzels, breads, and snack bars for its nutritional benefits and texture.
Health notes
Flax seed is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a good source of dietary fiber, which can aid digestion. Some research suggests flax seed may have benefits for heart health and blood sugar control, though more studies are needed. JECFA has evaluated flax seed and established specifications for its use.
Allergen info
Flax seed is not one of the nine major allergens. It is not related to wheat and does not contain gluten.
