Flax meal is a 100% natural product, free of preservatives, colorants and aromas - in healthy cuisine it is replacement for wheat flour, used for cakes, biscuits, dumplings, pancakes, as well as meat buns or soups.

Flaxseed flour is produced by grinding raw and unroasted flaxseeds - because the milling process is controlled at temperatures below 40 degrees Celsius, flaxseed flour retains valuable vitamins, minerals and enzymes - and what is to be kept!

Flax protein is one of the most digestible, most valuable and fully digestible vegetable proteins. The digestibility index of flax protein under the influence of human digestive enzymes is higher even than the digestibility of milk protein.
