100% All Natural Canadian Harvested Flaxseed
Linagold® Flaxseed products contain 100% Canadian Harvested flax seed. Flaxseed can be harvested anywhere in the world but Canadian flaxseed due to the cooler temperature in the soil, contains more Omega 3, 6, and 9 fatty acids.

Can Prevent Cancer
Currently, scientists are trying to determine how effective lignans and other chemicals in foods (phytochemicals) are at preventing cancer. They are also looking over evidence that suggests the omega-3 fatty acids in flax are potential anticarcinogens. Flaxseed has 27 identified components that may help prevent cancer. Flaxseed is beneficial for cancer susceptible to hormones such as; prostate and breast cancer.

Helps Prevent Obesity & Helps Weight Loss
Canadian flaxseed contains soluble and insoluble fiber. It facilitates the burning of fat and cleanses the colon of toxins and parasites. For better results in weight loss, try taking two tablespoons of Linagold® Flaxseed products in the morning and night with your beverage of your choice. Try to drink as much fluids as possible during your day. Linagold® Flaxseed products regulates the appetite because of the high count of fiber. It can give the feeling of fullness because of the expanding effect of flaxseed when it is moist.

Slows Development of Diabetes
Flaxseed regulates the active insulin and the level of sugar in the blood. The main cause of type 2 diabetes is being overweight and lack of excersize. High carbohydrate diets increase the glucose in the blood therefore increasing the production of insulin. For that same reason people with diabetes experience dizziness, weakness and cravings. Studies show that diabetes in adults is caused by deficiences in linolenic acid; and acid that can lower the requirements of insulin. Regular consumption of flaxseed can control the level of sugar in the blood.

Regulates Digestion
Helps with chronic constipation due to a dirty colon. Not surprisingly, studies show that the insoluble fiber in flax, like that in wheat bran, is helpful for regulating bowel movements and preventing constipation. Because flax's insoluble fibre components have the capacity to hold water, they help soften the stool and allow it to move through the colon more quickly. The sweeping mechanism of fiber can clean the colon, thus preventing colon cancer. It also alleviates damages caused by unnatural laxatives.

Enhanced Vitality
One of the most noticeable signs of good health due to the consumption of flax seed is the increase in energy and vitality. It is especially beneficial for athletes because it helps for muscles to recuperate faster from the fatigue of exercise. Also great for those that desire a more toned and healthy build.

Skin & Hair Health
With frequent use of Linagold® Flaxseed products it will soon be noticeable how the skin has a smoother feel and even alleviates the problems of psoriasis and eczema. Home remedies include the use of flaxseed products as a face mask for a deep facial cleansing and as a gel for hair nourishing.

Sexual Problems
It has been discovered that flax seed oil is an aprodisiac. Much of the male-female impotence is due to inconsistent circulation of blood due to blockage. Linagold® Flaxseed products will clean and correct arterial circulation, as will help with some sterile problems and even reduce the symptoms of menopause.

Helps Prevent Bodily Fluid Retention
The fatty acids contained in flaxseed help the kidneys to secrete excess sodium and water helping to prevent bodily fluid retention.

Stress Relief
Many testiomonials have explained that by far the best benefit of flax seed consumption is the sensation of calmess. It is excellent for those with a rushed schedule or those who work under a lot of stress.
