Jarrow Cold Milled Flax seeds, 15oz
Jarrow Formulas Cold Milled Flax seeds contains EFAs which helps maintain overall health. Cold Milled Flax seeds are carefully chosen for nutritional value and taste. Cold milling chops the seed without heating the mill blades, so the essential fatty acids remain intact. The flax is not crushed, so the precious oil is retained. Vacuum-packed in 1 lb. lined, resealable foil bag to retain freshness.
Flax seeds offer both lignans and essential fatty acids (EFA's). EFA's are essential for maintaining good health by acting as building blocks in cell membranes and aiding in the production of hormone-like substances that are necessary for energy metabolism.
Flax seed also contains high concentrations of lignans, making it the richest available source. Plant lignans are converted in the colon by bacterial fermentation into a form of lignans that can be used by humans. Lignans are structurally similar to estrogens and work within the body to balance estrogen levels.
Product Features:
- Balance cytokines that play key roles in the body’s metabolic responses
- Support cardiovascular health
- Promote mental health
- Lowers total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels.
- Supports Healthy Insulin & Blood Sugar Levels
- Supports the Immune System

What are the fatty acids?
|
|
|
Chemically, a fatty acid is an organic compound with an acid group at one end of its molecule and a methyl group at the other end. Fatty acids are typically categorized in the omega groups 3, 6 and 9 according to the location of their first double bond. There’s also an omega-7 group, but these are compartively less important to human health.
|
|
|
|
|
What are the essential fatty acids (EFA)?
|
|
|
The term essential fatty acid (EFA) refers to a fatty acid that the body cannot manufacture and must, therefore, obtain from dietary sources. These EFAs were originally designated as Vitamin F, until it was realized they should be classified with the fats.
There are two fatty acids designated as EFAs: Linoleic acid (LA) (omega-6) and Alpha linolenic acid (ALA) (omega-3). This does not mean the other 15 or so fatty acids found in the omega 3, 6 and 9 groups aren’t important, just that a healthy body can manufacture them as long as it gets enough LA and ALA. Nevertheless, research demonstrates there are health benefits to be had by obtaining some of the other nonessential fatty acids directly.
|
|
|
|
|
What roles do Essential fatty acids (EFAs) play in our body?
|
|
|
EFAs Plays an important role in our body. The body uses EFAs for the formation of healthy cell membranes, the proper development and functioning of the brain and nervous system, and for the production of hormone-like substances called eicosanoids (i.e., thromboxanes, leukotrienes, prostaglandins). These chemicals regulate numerous body functions including blood pressure, blood viscosity, vasoconstriction, immune and inflammatory responses. Here are some main functions of EFAs:
- Energy Production
- Diffusion of oxygen into the bloodstream
- Brain and nerve tissue development
- Control cell membrane fluids
- Strengthen immune system
- Reduce water retention, by assisting in sodium and water removal
- Calming effect and regulates mood
No doubt, essential fatty acids are of extreme importance. There is more to them though.
