 Why choose Golden Omega Flaxseeds? Q: What is flaxseed? What
health benefits does it provide?
A: Several substances in flaxseed may provide health benefits:
Many experts
believe the typical Western diet has too little omega-3 fatty acids. Flaxseeds, non-gmo canola oils, walnuts and fatty fish (swordfish, salmon, mackerel and herring) all contain
omega-3 fatty acids. You can also buy omega-3 enriched eggs produced by hens that are fed
flaxseed.
Canadian dietary guidelines recommend 1.0 to 1.5 grams of omega-3 fat per day, which you
can get in 1 teaspoon of flaxseed oil. Although the United States has no specific dietary
guidelines for omega-3 fat, health experts recommend foods containing this fat as part of
a healthy diet.
Incorporating flaxseed into your diet is simple and can add a tasty twist to routine foods
and dishes. The small, reddish-brown whole seeds have a nutty taste. Sprinkle them over
salads, soups, yogurt or cereals. Whole or ground flaxseed can replace some of the flour
in bread, muffin, pancake and cookie recipes. Because of flaxseed’s high fat content,
you can use it to replace part or all of the fat in baked goods recipes: Substitute 1 cup
of flaxseed for 1/3 cup of fat. Adjust your oven temperature and the total baking time to
allow for more rapid browning.

WE'RE FLAX CRAZY! Whats the history?
Common flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) was one of the first
crops domesticated by man. Flax is thought to have originated in the
Mediterranean region of Europe; the Swiss Lake Dweller People of the
Stone Age apparently produced flax utilizing the fiber as well as the
seed. Linen cloth made from flax was used to wrap the mummies in the
early Egyptian tombs. In the United States, the early colonists grew
small fields of flax for home use, and commercial production of fiber
flax began in 1753. However, with the invention of the cotton gin in
1793, flax production began to decline. During the 1940's fiber flax
production in the U.S. dropped to nearly zero. Today a few individuals
still grow fiber flax for their own use to make linen. Presently the
major fiber flax producing countries are the Soviet Union, Poland, and
France and parts of the USA. Naturally great for health!

Help treat acne, eczema, psoriasis, sunburn
and rosacea: The essential fatty acids in flaxseed oil are largely responsible
for its skin-healing powers. Red, itchy patches of eczema, psoriasis and
rosacea often respond to the EFA's anti-inflammatory actions and overall
skin-soothing properties. Sunburned skin may heal faster when treated with the
oil as well. In cases of acne, the EFAs encourage thinning of the oily sebum
that clogs pores.
Flaxseed Oil:
Flaxseed is 35% oil, and 55% of that oil includes the crucial omega-3
fatty acid and 45% Omega-6 fatty acid. Remember, both omega-3 and 6 are
essential oils that need to be included in your diet to promote heart
health but are sorely missing in the foods we eat today. Essential
means that your body cannot make it but requires it and so must derive
all of it from the food you eat. Flaxseed Fiber:
Flaxseed is 35% fiber with one-third being Soluble (digestible) Fiber
and two-thirds Insoluble (non-digestible) Fiber. Soluble Fiber has been
shown to lower cholesterol and regulate blood sugars, thereby helping
with both heart disease and diabetes.
Lignans:
Lignans are an exciting type of insoluble fiber that act as
phytoestrogens and have been shown to help relieve the symptoms of
menopause, as well as having anticancer, antibacterial, antifungal and
antiviral properties. It is the anticancer effects of lignans that have
received the most research lately.
Suggested Daily Usage:
4 Tablespoons of Flaxseed or 1/4 cup of seeds is the suggested daily
usage. Flaxseed is a hard seed that needs to be ground into fine flour
and this is easily accomplished with most coffee grinders. Immediately
pour the flaxseed flour into a glass and add at least twice as much
liquid. Stir and drink immediately. If the drink is too thick, add more
liquid then stir and drink. Any kind of juice will work, and is also
tasty with just plain water. Add a couple of Tablespoons or more of
ground flaxseed to Pancakes, Yogurt, Cereal, Soups, Salads, Smoothies,
Peanut Butter for smaller children and whatever else you can think of.
 Why Go Organic?
Organic products meet stringent standards : Organic certification is the public’s assurance that products have
been grown and handled according to strict procedures without
persistent toxic chemical inputs.
Organic food tastes great! It’s common sense – well-balanced soils produce strong, healthy plants that become nourishing food for people and animals.
Organic production reduces health risks: Many EPA-approved pesticides were registered long before
extensive research linked these chemicals to cancer and other diseases.
Organic agriculture is one way to prevent any more of these chemicals
from getting into the air, earth and water that sustain us
Organic farmers build healthy soilSoil is the foundation of the food chain. The primary focus of organic farming is to use practices that build healthy soils.

Healthier Younger Skin
Flax seed oil contains high levels of omega 3 and omega 6 essential fatty
acids which can either be taken internally by eating the flax seeds or taking
flax seed oil supplements or it can be applied externally as a pack for healthy
skin. Used in soaps and lotions works wonderfully for it’s healing properties and
for general healthy skin.
Flax seed oil is useful for healing scars, abrasions and also has
anti-inflammatory properties and so is useful for inflamed skin or skin
disorders such as psoriasis and eczema. Flax seed oil is also useful for dry
skin.
Many skin problems today such as acne, eczema and psoriasis may also be
partly due to the fact that the modern diet is lacking in omega 3 essential
fatty acids. As a rich source of omega 3 fatty acids flax seed is able to
replenish the correct body levels of these fats and so benefit skin disorders
that may result from a deficiency.
Patrick Holford says in his book "New Optimum Nutrition Bible",
"Another important component of a good skin diet is the Omega 3 and 6
essential fats. Each cell membrane - in effect the skin of each cell - is
composed partly of essential fats, and in turn your skin is made up of
countless cells. So the fatty acid content of your cell membranes is vital. Not
only do the essential fats keep cell membranes smooth and soft, but also they
help the membranes to do a better job of controlling what goes in and out of
the cells. Without enough fats in the cell membranes, they are not able to
retain water and they lose their plumpness.
Flax seed oil benefits acne as the fatty acids present in flax seed help to
prevent the clogging of the pores of the skin and thin the sebum which causes
these clogged pores.
Psoriasis is another skin disorder that is benefited by taking flax seed.
Flax seed contains the omega 3 fatty acid ALA which is broken down by the body into
EPA. EPA supplementation has been found to be beneficial for psoriasis
sufferers when used with their normal medication.
You can take flax seed oil internally by sprinkling ground flax seed over
cereals and salads or adding whole flax seeds to a glass of water and drinking
immediately (if you leave it too long it will solidify the water).
Omega 3 essential fatty acids such as are found in flax seed are essential
for healthy skin and can benefit skin disorders such as acne, psoriasis and
eczema. In order to get the full benefits of flax seed for your skin include
flax seeds in your diet, take flax seed supplements and use external
applications of flax seed oil packs.

FLAX HEALING SOAPS wonderful! | |

is absolutely wonderful. It is a “One Of A Kind” product. How we started? We used a ground up flax seed mixed with water and applied it to an insect bite. The pain lessened, and there was little swelling; Once the flaxseed paste
dried and was removed, they noticed how smooth the skin around the bite felt. This was the beginning of months of trial and error and
research and testing to come up with the right mixture of ingredients
that makes our Flax Soap so special--only available from Nature's

Psoriasis, and other skin problems have been seen to improve within a few days.

and rub the soap directly onto your body or with a washcloth and feel
the difference. Try shaving with it and you’ll think you don’t have a
blade in your razor because it is so smooth. After shaving, you will

  | Flax Healing Lotion with Minerals Nutrients for Healthy Skin Inside and Out...
Vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients can give your skin the youthful glow of good health.
Of all the news coming from the beauty community, the loudest buzz may be
about the power of vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients to give skin a
more radiant, healthy, and, yes, youthful glow.
The excitement is focused not only on creams and lotions you put on
your skin but what you put into your body as well. Health experts say that
vitamins and minerals in all forms play an integral role in a healthy
complexion, whether the source is food, supplements, or even a jar of cream.
"Your skin is the fingerprint of what is going on inside your body, and all
skin conditions, from psoriasis to acne to aging, are the manifestations of
your body's internal needs, including its nutritional needs," says Georgiana
Donadio, PhD, DC, MSc, founder and director of the National Institute of Whole
Health in Boston.
If you feed your skin from the inside and out, experts such as Donadio and
others say you can't help but benefit.
"There is a lot of important new research showing tremendous power of
antioxidants in general, and in some specific nutrients in particular that can
make an important difference in the way your skin looks and feels -- and even
in how well it ages," says nutritional supplement expert Mary Sullivan, RN,
co-founder of Olympian Labs. "When combined with a good diet, the right dietary
supplements can help keep your skin looking not only healthy, but also
years younger."
So which nutrients do you need to keep your skin healthy and looking its
best? According to the experts interviewed by WebMD, plus new information from
the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), the following vitamins, minerals,
antioxidants, and other nutrients nourish your skin, whether you take them in
supplement form, apply them directly to you skin, or make sure you get enough
from the foods you eat. |
