Main Ingredients Of Flaxseed Extract?

Beyond its high oil and protein content, flaxseed also contains significant dietary fiber, minerals, vitamins A, B, D, E, as well as phenolic acids, flavonoids, phytic acid, lecithin, and other nutritional compounds.

  1. Flaxseed oil: Flaxseed contains over 35% oil and is rich in alpha-linolenic acid. Li Gaoyang employed GC-MS technology to analyze the chemical composition of flaxseed oil and identified 13 fatty acids, comprising 4 saturated fatty acids and 9 unsaturated fatty acids. The 9 unsaturated fatty acids constituted 87.1% of the total fatty acids. Among them, linolenic acid (49.05%), oleic acid (22.34%), and linoleic acid (13.73%) were the primary components. Wang Peipei also conducted a similar analysis, identifying 10 types of fatty acids. The 4 types of unsaturated fatty acids accounted for 82.38% of the total fatty acids, with linolenic acid having the highest proportion at 74.01%.


  2. Flaxseed gum: Flaxseed gum is a novel natural plant colloid extracted from flaxseed. Also known as Flaxseed gum, it is found in flaxseed shells with a content of 10 g/100 g~15 g/100 g. Its main components are 80% polysaccharides and 9% protein. The polysaccharides are primarily D-xylose, L-rhamnose, D-galactose, L-arabinose, L-fucose, and others.


  3. Lignans: The main lignans in flaxseed extract powder are secoisolariciresinol (SECO) and its glycoside secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG).


benefits of flaxseed extract?

  1. Lower blood lipids, prevent coronary heart disease and atherosclerosis: α-linolenic acid (LNA) in flaxseed can significantly reduce serum triglycerides and cholesterol.


  2. Anti-tumor: α-linolenic acid and its derivatives EPA and DHA can prevent tumor occurrence and inhibit tumor cell proliferation.


  3. Prevent colon cancer, prostate cancer, and thymus cancer: It has been demonstrated that lignans can inhibit the activity of the enzyme (cholesterol-7α-hydrolase) that promotes the formation of primary bile acid, thereby influencing bile acid and cholesterol metabolism to prevent colon cancer. Studies have shown that high levels of EL in prostatic fluid can reduce the incidence of prostate cancer. The lignans in flaxseed can promote the production of ED and EL, thus preventing the occurrence of prostate cancer. Clinical studies have indicated that flaxseed lignans can reduce the size and number of breast tumors and are closely related to the prevention of breast cancer.


  4. Prevent diabetes: The rich soluble fiber in flaxseed extract powder can reduce postprandial blood sugar production and the response to elevated blood insulin, delay gastric emptying, slow down the digestion of starch in the small intestine or reduce the absorption of glucose in the intestine, thereby having a preventive effect on the development of diabetes.


  5. Strengthen the brain and improve eyesight: α-linolenic acid can be converted into DHA in the liver. DHA, known as "brain gold" in China, can not only prevent and treat cardiovascular diseases but, more importantly, possesses the characteristic of easily passing through blood vessel walls to enter brain cells. It is an essential substance for maintaining the normal physiological functions of cranial nerves and meninges, playing a vital role in the formation, growth, and development of brain cells.


Used in health drinks, sports drinks, chocolate, candy, baked goods, breakfast cereals, the recommended dosage is 50-150mg/day.
