Western Family's Whole Flax Seed is a purely natural ingredient with many health benefits with nothing added and nothing removed. The seeds have a crisp chewy texture and a pleasant, nutty and oily flavour. Flax seed is a plant-based food that provides healthful fat, antioxidants, and are very high in fiber. Theyre rich in fat and one of the best plant-based sources of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids (ALA). Whole flax seeds can be used like nuts: mixed into baked goods, blended into smoothies, or sprinkled on top of food. They'll also add an attractive texture to dishes, especially when paired with nuts and other seeds. For over 50 years, Western Family has been committed to providing high-quality products that people can trust, backed by our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.
