Bob's Red Mill Organic Whole Ground Flaxseed Meal

Bob's Red Mill® Organic Whole Ground Flaxseed Meal. An employee-owned company. To Your Good Health®. -Bob Moore. Gluten Free™. Packed with potential. USDA Organic. Dear friends, Milling flaxseeds is like opening a treasure chest. Flaxseeds contain a wealth of nutrients, but as whole seeds most of these nutritional treasures are locked away. Milling the seeds into meal gives your body access to the amazing nourishment stored within. In order to maintain the integrity of the wholesome nutrients in the flaxseed oil, the seeds must be milled with great care. That is why we don't make compromises or cut comers. Our proprietary flax milling machinery keeps the meal cool, which preserves the freshness of those precious oils. It's not the fastest way, but it's the right way, and it is absolutely worth the time and effort. The result is flaxseed meal with optimal nutrition and a fresh, nutty flavor you won't find anywhere else. Just a couple spoonfuls each day in your cereal or smoothie will be a wonderful way to maintain your wellness. That's why I say these bags are "packed with potential." I add a tablespoon to my oatmeal every morning, and I truly believe there is no better way to start the day. To your good health, Bob Moore.

The wisdom of the ages: Flax has been prized since ancient times. Its Latin name, Linum usitatissimum, means "most useful."

King Charlemagne was so convinced of its benefits that he passed laws requiring his subjects to consume flaxseeds. The science of today: Today, the nutritional data backs up the wisdom of the ancients.

You can also inhale oxygen from a tank, but wouldn't you rather breathe fresh air from the great outdoors We just believe that eating the whole seed, as nature intended, serves your body and soul best.
