Description
FLUID AVAILABILITY. Our commercial flax lignan facility and grain elevator burned down in early 2024. Our Ancient Seeds and Grains and Organic facility was spared. The next year will be really iffy for getting commercial grade, and when it runs out, will go out of stock on this website until we have more. At this time, we project having plenty of Ancient Seeds and Grains and Organic (both higher quality) and are working on being able to provide those at the lowest cost possible for you. The situation is fluid, and we will update you as we go.
Flax Hull Lignans For the Immune System
Concentrated Flax Hull Lignans (FHL) are a natural immune system supporter and builder. Studies published online by a Non-profit AIDS-based organization say that in their studies, FHL Flax Hull Lignans raised CD-4 counts (the measurement of the immune system in the blood). We recommend you do the research (try a search for flax hull lignans and AIDS). When you have to be around crowds of people, you want to know your immune system is working right. FHL is a natural immune system support for your body.
FHL is not the same as the flax seed you grind yourself. Whole ground flax naturally has a small amount of lignans in it because it includes the shell of the flaxseed, and the shell is where the lignans are. However, you’d still need to consume 2 gallons of whole ground flax seed a day to get the immune system supporting power in 1.5 teaspoons of these concentrated Flax Hull Lignans! The MCP process is a cold-milled extraction that is important in preserving the lignans.
Our Flax Hull Lignan MCP Extraction Process
We us a special process of extraction called the “MCP” process. We mechanically extract the lignans from the shells of the flax seed and concentrate them into powder form. It is the Flax Hull Lignans MCP Process. There is no seed in this product, only lignans from the shell. Each 1.5 teaspoon sized serving has from 150-300 mg of SDG (the dominant lignan) as well as all of the other natural lignans in the flax seed shell. Manufacturer recommends 1 scoop daily for adults, and 1/2 scoop for children. We include a scoop in each jar.
How FHL Works in the Body
FHL doesn’t just help the immune system, it supports multiple body systems. FHL is very beneficial to the prostate, breast and brain. They support properly replicating DNA and help everything to run smoothly.
They are very high in anti-oxidants, more potent than the darkest leafy green vegetable – kale! Kale is a vegetable that has one of the highest ORAC values(the measurement of antioxidant). Kale’s ORAC value is 1770, while concentrated FHL has an ORAC value of 19,600!
FHL is 8% oil and fat, and 55% of that fat is ALA (Alpha-Linolenic Acid). If a person were to consume 2.5g (3/4 tsp) daily of FHL, they would be consuming approximately 110mg ALA. The National Academy of Sciences, USA has given daily recommendations of ALA to be 110mg for women and 160mg for men. 1 scoop of FHL give approximately 220 mg of ALA.
There is 2.1g of dietary fiber and 1.4g of protein in each scoop of FHL
Purity is Important – No Chemicals In Our Lignans! Flax Hull Lignans with MCP Process only!
There are no chemicals used in extracting the lignans from the shell and therefore, no chemicals in our flax hull lignans! You should be aware of ALL liquid forms of flax hull lignans, because they use chemical extraction.
Note: These are certified natural commercial lignans – the same ones that have undergone rigorous testing by various organizations. While these are not certified organic, they are a very clean, all-natural lignan product that meets the high standards of health & wellness professionals worldwide and meets the rigorous standards to be qualified as Kosher. Though the farmer tries to get non-GMO flax for all his lignans, you have to purchase the “Better Than Organic” non-GMO lignans to guarantee that standard.
