Get your omega-3s and feed your body


I keep reading about the benefits of flax in just about every magazine I pick up these days. So when Flax USA sent me a sample of their Flax Sprinkles I was more than willing to give it a try.

Flaxseed is one of the richest sources of Omega-3 fatty acids. Highly concentrated in fiber, lignan and other vitamins and minerals, Flax Seed is suggested to help reduce cholesterol, fight cancer and control blood glucose levels.

Flax Sprinkles, freshly-milled flax seed in a convenient shaker style container, can be used several ways - on cereal, in pasta, on salads, in smoothies, or even in baking.

FLAX USA, a family-owned business, using a Real Cold Milled™ process, which means fresh, easy to use and longer shelf-stable flax. Visit their Web site at www.flaxusa.com to learn about the benefits of adding flax to your diet, as well as recipes and suggestions for use.
