Dried Organic Linseeds (Flaxseeds)
Botanical Name: Linum usitatissum Organic Status: Organic, Country of Origin: Australia, Plant Part: Seed
Linseed is rich in mucilage, fiber and unsaturated fats, and makes a valuable remedy for many intestinal and chest problems. Taken whole internally, the seeds soothe irritation throughout the digestive tract. They also absorb fluid and swell, drawing in toxins and forming a jellylike mass, which acts as an effective bulk laxative. Linseeds, if taken with plenty of water, are of great benefit in chronic constipation, diverticulitis, irritable bowel, and in irritation of the colon due to laxative abuse
