Why we love it

Made from finely milled flax seeds (also known as linseeds), this nourishing flax meal can be used to add a tasty nutritional boost to almost any meal. Perfect for mixing into porridge, yoghurt, smoothies and soups, Health Connection Flax Powder is loaded with omegas and has a pleasantly mild nutty flavour. Flax meal is a great source of fibre and protein; in fact it’s one of the few plant-based “complete proteins” out there, making it a great choice for vegans and vegetarians.

Description

What nutritional goodness does flax meal offer you?

Rich in fibre, promotes healthy digestion & keeps you regular

Source of omega-3 fatty acid; a great anti-inflammatory that promotes heart health & brain health

I use this is in cooking and foods as a nutrient source and it is a great vegan egg substitute. Pleasant, nutty tatse.

Chuck it in some oats or a smoothie and it's a great way to get the good stuff into your body.

Not a huge fan of the taste of flax seeds but this works great in smoothies or mixed into oats. Great value for money.

I use this in my porridge. Definitely helps with my constipation, but it does leave me bloated. I prefer to use it alternative days.

Love this. I have a very sensitive tummy, and that makes it hard to get all the good stuff when you can't actually eat any of it. This is a great way to keep my gut healthy, and it tastes lovely.
