Flaxseed has been around for centuries.  All major cultures of the last 9000 years have used it in one form or another. Even in the Bible, flax is mentioned as a food.  Some used the seed to grow the stalks to be utilized in the manufacture of linen to make tents, sails, and very durable clothing. For thousands of years it was used as an ingredient in making breads and cereals, but no one really knew why.

Then in 1985, Paul Stitt, biochemist and founder of Natural Ovens Bakery™ and  INENRECO®,C., gathered information from many different sources and carried out research to show that flax was a very nutritional additive to breads and could replace conventional fats.  The positive results of Paul’s initial scientific research were the reason scientists at several universities around the world started very serious work to determine all the possible health benefits of flax. Presently, because of Paul Stitt’s pioneering vision, there have been thousands of articles published on the health benefits of flax.

Amazingly, flax has been shown to help benefit almost every chronic inflammatory disease that afflicts mankind today.

Flaxseed proves effective natural alternative to HRT for Menopausal symptoms.

The American Heart Association found that women with increased dietary intake of the isoflavones and lignans found in soy and flax decreased their risk for atherosclerosis and arterial degeneration.  Flax is "...by far the richest source of lignans", according to the Journal of the American College of Nutrition which asl noted their beneficial effects on bone.
