Origin of flaxseed
Linseed is the seed of flax, a plant which has been cultivated for a long time. Linseed is grown as a food and fibre crop in regions with a temperate climate. The most suitable soils for flax, besides alluvial ones, are deep loamy soils with a high content of organic material. Flax often grows just above the water line in cranberry bogs. Heavy clay is unsuitable, as are gravelly or dry sandy soils.
Production process of whole flax
Flax grown for whole flaxseed is allowed to mature until the seed capsules are yellow and just beginning to split, then it is harvested. This can be done by cutting only the heads of the plants or the whole plant. After harvesting, the line seeds are cleaned and ready to be packaged.
Healthy properties of Flaxseed
Linseed contains vitamin B1 and vitamin B2, potassium, zinc, calcium, magnesium, omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids. In addition, linseed for a vegetable product contains many different and essential amino acids.
