Flax Seed Extract
Indications and Usage
Flax is an annual plant that thrives in deep moist soils rich in sand, silt, and clay. The small, oval-shaped seeds of the flax plant contain oil ( sometimes called linseed oil) .
In addition to the important omega-3 fatty acid ALA, flaxseed ( not the oil) also contains a group of chemicals called lignans that may protect the body from cancer. Lignans are plant compounds that mimic the action of the natural hormone estrogen. For this reason, lignans are considered phyto ( plant) estrogens. Because of their estrogen-like activity, scientists aren' t sure whether flaxseed would be harmful or helpful for breast cancer. Several laboratory studies support the use of flaxseed oil in preventing cancer development.
Research shows flax lignans may offer incredible health benefits for prostate health, bone health, breast health, reducing symptoms of menopause, heart health, hair loss, acne and inflammation. Laboratory studies have reported reduction in breast tumor growth and metastasis ( spreading) in rats. A human study has examined the effects of dietary flaxseed in postmenopausal patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer. The authors found that dietary flaxseed may have the potential to reduce tumor growth in patients with breast cancer. Laboratory studies show that lignans may slow the growth of colon tumor cells and some studies have found that flaxseed may significantly reduce the number of abnormal cell growths ( early markers of colon cancer) . More research is needed. Animal studies suggest that lignans from flaxseed may also offer some protection against skin cancer including, possibly, the prevention of metastatic spread of melanoma from the skin to the lungs.
