Flora - Aceite de Linaza Alto en Lignanos - Orgánico, Sin Gluten y No Transgénico

What is High Lignan Flax Oil?

Flora's high lignan flax oil is a 100% pure, unrefined food supplement made from organic flax seeds. It combines the benefits of essential omega 3, 6, and 9 fatty acids with a high concentration of lignans, plant compounds that support digestive balance and are part of a healthy diet.

Obtained through a gentle cold-pressing process, this oil retains all its nutritional properties. It is ideal for those seeking a high-quality plant-based source of omega-3 (alpha-linolenic acid), suitable for vegans and people with gluten sensitivity.

Key Benefits of Flax Oil with Lignans

Omega-3 fatty acids contribute to normal heart function and the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels (according to EFSA). In addition, lignans act as natural antioxidants that protect cells against oxidative damage.

This flax oil also offers:

• Digestive support: lignans promote a balanced gut microbiota.
• Healthy skin: omega-3s help maintain skin in good condition.
• Versatility: perfect for dressing salads, smoothies, or taking directly.

Being organic and non-GMO, you ensure a product free from pesticides and genetic modifications.

Ingredients and Nutritional Profile

The only ingredient is organic flaxseed oil (Linum usitatissimum). It has a balanced fatty acid profile:

• Omega-3 (ALA): approximately 50-60% of the content.
• Omega-6: around 15-20%.
• Omega-9: close to 10-15%.

Each recommended daily dose (1 tablespoon, 15 ml) provides about 7 g of ALA. In addition, it contains lignans such as secoisolariciresinol, which act as phytoestrogens and antioxidants.

What Makes This Flax Oil Special?

Unlike other flax oils, Flora High Lignan Flax Oil maintains a high lignan content by not being refined. Cold pressing at low temperatures protects heat-sensitive compounds, ensuring their biological activity.

Furthermore, it comes in a dark glass bottle that protects it from light and oxygen, preventing oxidation. It is important to store it refrigerated after opening to preserve its freshness and flavor.

How to Take Flax Oil?

The recommended dose is 1 to 2 tablespoons per day (15-30 ml). It can be consumed alone or mixed with yogurt, salads, smoothies, or cooked vegetables. It is not recommended to heat it, as heat damages essential fatty acids.

Shake well before use. Once opened, keep it refrigerated and consume within 6-8 weeks.

Precautions and Contraindications

This food supplement should not replace a varied and balanced diet. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep out of reach of young children.

Consult a health professional before taking it if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking anticoagulant medication, or have a hormonal disorder (lignans can interact with estrogens). Store in a cool, dark place; once opened, refrigerate.

Food supplements should not be used as substitutes for a balanced and varied diet. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep out of reach of children.
