Organic Brown Linseed

Organic Brown Linseed

Our organic brown linseed (also known as brown flaxseed) is a time-honoured nutritional staple with a slightly earthier, nuttier flavour than its golden counterpart. Grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, it's a wholesome, planet-friendly addition to your daily diet.

Health Benefits

• Outstanding source of Omega-3 fatty acids – one of the richest plant-based sources of ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), supporting heart health, brain function, and reducing inflammation.
• Exceptionally high in dietary fibre – both soluble and insoluble fibre support healthy digestion, regularity, and a thriving gut microbiome.
• Rich in lignans – brown linseed contains up to 800 times more lignans than most other plant foods. These powerful antioxidants have anti-inflammatory properties and may support hormonal balance.
• Good source of plant-based protein – contributes to muscle maintenance and repair, ideal for vegan and vegetarian diets.
• Supports heart health – the combination of omega-3s, fibre, and lignans may help lower LDL cholesterol and support healthy blood pressure.
• May help regulate blood sugar – soluble fibre slows the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream, helping to maintain steady energy levels.
• Organically certified – free from synthetic chemicals, better for your body and the environment.

How to Use

For maximum nutritional benefit, grind before eating — whole seeds may pass through undigested. Add ground linseed to smoothies, porridge, yoghurt, soups, or baked goods. Use whole seeds to add texture to bread, crackers, and granola. Can also be used as a vegan egg substitute (1 tbsp ground linseed + 3 tbsp water = 1 egg).
