Great-Tasting
Flaxseeds
from Heintzman Farms
Do you
choke down brown flaxseed just for the health
benefits? Or take a spoonful of flaxseed oil chased
with a glass of water? Then you’ve got to try this
great-tasting alternative! Heintzman Farms’
Dakota Flax Gold is a plump, golden flaxseed
variety with all the nutritional benefits – and a
surprisingly mild, nutty flavor. Try it toasted, or in
muffins, pancakes, granolas, and more. Flaxseed is the
richest plant source of omega-3 fatty acids and
lignans (plant hormones related to the isoflavones in
soy). Recent medical studies have found whole ground
flaxseed to be helpful in preventing and treating
illnesses ranging from Type 2 diabetes to hormone
imbalances and even certain cancers.
