You probably use flaxseed even if you don't know it. Fiber made from this plant's stems are spun into linen. The seeds are pressed to produce linseed oil. A slender plant with delicate blue flowers, flax is widely cultivated. The small brown seeds and their oil are also used for health benefits.

Potential Health Benefits

Flaxseed can be used to help support chronic constipation, irritable colon, diverticulitis, and colons damaged by abusing commercial laxatives. Assertions by researchers that flaxseed (or linseed oil) supports healthy immunity levels and eases menstrual discomfort weren't addressed by Commission E. Flax preparations can soothe irritations when rubbed on the skin.

Scientific Evidence

Flaxseed contains fiber and fatty oil with 52-76 percent linolenic acid esters. A University of Toronto study found that flaxseed fed to animals for seven weeks supported healthy immunity levels. The same study found that an ingredient in flaxseed, called lignan, seemed to be responsible for this. According to the Prevention magazine book Nature's Medicines, "Many plants have some lignan, but flaxseed has at least 75 times more than almost any other plant."

Flaxseed provides approximately 50% more omega-3 oils than the amount available from fish oil. The species name "usitatissimum" means "most useful." This truly useful plant has been cultivated for over 7,000 years. In the 8th century, the French king Charlemagne passed a law requiring citizens to consume Flaxseed so that they would be healthy subjects. The fibers of some of the species of this plant can be used to make paper, linen and twine. Linen from Flax was used to wrap mummies in ancient Egypt.

Flaxseed contains omega-6 and omega-9 essential fatty acids, linolenic, linoleni and oleic acids, linamarin (a cyanogenic glycoside), mucilage, cyanogenic glycosides, B vitamins, fiber, protein, potassium, lecithin, magnesium, zinc, and vitamins A and E. The body does not naturally produce certain essential fatty acids, so it is necessary to receive them via the diet. Flaxseed supplements the body with these fatty acids, which are vital for maintaining body temperature, building nerve insulation, protecting tissues and producing energy. Fatty acids are important for building prostaglandins, which are necessary for several body processes, including dilation of blood vessels, cholesterol metabolization, and other critical bio-chemical functions. Prostaglandins are essential hormone-like substances that help regulate systems functions, including immune, reproductive, cardiovascular and nervous systems.

Several scientific studies show that consumption of sources of omega-3 oils leads to a substantially lower risk of death from coronary heart health issues. Until recently, experts believed the best sources of omega-3 were fish oils. However, Flaxseed contains twice as much omega-3 essential fatty acids as fish oil products, without the fishy aftertaste. The common name Flax also includes the species Linum lewisii and Linum perenne, which are used interchangeably with Linum usitatissimum.

Medicine makes great use of the Flax seed or Linseed. The seed holds a mucus containing acetic acid and salts, extractive, starch, resin wax, a coloring matter, gum, albumin and principally a fine oil. The mucilage of Linseed is very viscous, and has emollient properties. Linseed is frequently used in the form of powder or flour. It is the basis of most poultices. The non-expressed flour is used, i. e., with the oil not removed. Macerated cold in a dose of 10-20 grams to 1 litre of water, Linseed is widely used as a sedative drink. It is particularly useful in genito-urinary problems.

Flax
Linum usitatissimum L.

Family: Linaceae.

Other Names: Linseed; Lin (French); Lein, Flachs (German); lino (Italian); lino (Spanish).

Description: An erect annual herb of up to 1 m in height with slender stems bearing small, hairless leaves and attractive blue flowers. The fruit capsules contain reddish-brown, smooth seeds. Some cultivars are grown for stem fibres (flax); others for the seeds or seed oil.

Origin: Mediterranean region and western Europe. Flax is an ancient cultigen (probably derived from L. angustifolium) with large, indehiscent capsules and large seeds.

Parts Used: The ripe, dried seeds (linseed; Lini semen).

Therapeutic Category: Bulk laxative.

Uses and Properties: Whole or crushed linseeds taken orally as a bulk-forming laxative to help support chronic constipation and symptoms of irritable colon, spasmodic digestive tract issues and diverticulitis. The mucilage is beneficial in cases of stomach aches and enteritis. Seeds or seed flour can be applied externally to help support local inflammations.

Active Ingredients: Large amounts (6-10%) of mucilage are present in the external wall of the outer cell layer of the seed coat. The seed itself contains 35-45% oil (including linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid, ALA), 20-25% proteins and 25% fibres. Also present are sterols arid triterpenes (cholesterol, campesterol, stigmasterol, sitosterol and others) together with up to 1% cyanogenic di- and monoglycosides (linustatin, neolinustatin, and linamarin, lotaustralin, respectively).

Pharmacolgical Effects: The mucilage causes an increase in the volume of the colon contents (leading to the stimulation of peristalsis) and lubricates the stools. If cracked seeds are ingested, the oil adds to the lubricating and emulcent effects. Overweight people should use only whole seeds to avoid unnecessary calories. The cyanogenic glycosides release cyanide (HCN) which is rapidly inactivated in the human body; there is no danger of intoxication (especially if whole seeds are ingested). Linseed lowers triglyceride and cholesterol levels. Disinfectant, hypoglycaemic and anticarcinogenic effects have been observed.

Notes: L. catharticum contains lignans (such as podophyllotoxins) and can be used as a purgative.

Status: Pharm.; Comm. E+; ESCOP 1; clinical studies+.

Preparation and Dosage: One tablespoon of whole or cracked (not ground) seeds with 150 mL of water taken three times per day. A compress or cataplasm can be made with 30 - 50 g of linseed flour.
