Reference Information
| introduction | flaxseed, commonly known as flax seed, is the seeds of flax, an annual or perennial herb in the flax family, which contains unsaturated fatty acids, protein, dietary fiber, vitamins, trace elements and other beneficial ingredients to human body, and is suitable for human health care. The oil content in flaxseed reaches 35% ~ 48%, the mass fraction of unsaturated fatty acids in flaxseed oil reaches more than 80%, and it is rich in α-linolenic acid, vitamin E and flavonoids. Alpha-linolenic acid is an essential fatty acid in the human body. It has rich pharmacological effects and can be converted into DHA in the body, which is of great benefit to the development of intelligence and nervous system. in China, flaxseed is mainly distributed in North China and Northwest China. Gansu, Inner Mongolia, Shanxi and Ningxia have large planting areas, among which Gansu Huining is known as the best flaxseed producing area in China. |
| main ingredient | flaxseed, also known as flax seed, is rich in fat (30% ~ 41%), dietary fiber (20% ~ 35%) and protein (20% ~ 30%), as well as water (4% ~ 8%), ash (3% ~ 4%) and monosaccharide (1%), and starch content is very low. At the same time, flaxseed is rich in a variety of bioactive compounds and elements, including linolenic acid, linoleic acid, lignans, cyclic peptides, polysaccharides, alkaloids, cyanogenic glycosides and cadmium, and is widely used in natural health products. |
| efficacy and function | linseed oil, also known as linseed oil and linseed oil, has a wide range of uses in food, medicine, chemical and other industries. The content of α-linolenic acid (ω-3) in linseed oil is 45% ~ 65%. Flaxseed oil is currently one of the known vegetable oils with the highest content of essential fatty acids (omega -3 fatty acids and omega -6 fatty acids). Studies have shown that α-linolenic acid has the functions of preventing coronary heart disease, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, lowering cholesterol, anti-thrombosis, lowering blood pressure, and improving the flexibility of the arterial system. Once the human body lacks α-linolenic acid for a long time, it will lead to the decline of brain organs and visual organs and the occurrence of Alzheimer's disease, and will cause the incidence of modern diseases such as high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, and cancer to increase. |
| application field | flaxseed is often used as the main component of anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory drugs. it plays a significant role in preventing cardiovascular diseases, reducing the incidence of cancer, preventing diabetes and atherosclerosis, reducing cholesterol, promoting growth, etc., and has great development prospects in food and medicinal resources. |
| extraction process | at present, the extraction methods of linseed oil at home and abroad mainly include pressing method, solvent extraction method, biological enzyme method, supercritical extraction method, etc. |
| nutrition | the main micronutrient of linseed oil is vitamin e. a large number of clinical trials have proved that VE has physiological functions such as anti-oxidation, anti-aging, prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and enhancement of human immunity. The VE content in different varieties of cold pressed flaxseed oil was compared. The results showed that the VE content in different varieties of flaxseed oil changed greatly (39~60 mg/100g), and the content of γ-tocopherol changed from 28 to 41 mg/100g. The VE content in linseed oil, safflower oil and poppy oil was compared. The results showed that linseed oil and poppy oil were rich in γ-tocopherol, 75.67 mg/100g and 21.74 mg/100g respectively, accounting for 95.3% and 70.3% of the total tocopherol content. The VE content of linseed oil obtained by different extraction methods is also |
| medical applications | a large number of animal and human experiments have proved that n-3 fatty acids can significantly reduce triglycerides and cholesterol in serum. Its mechanism of action is generally believed to be that after intake of n-3 fatty acids, it inhibits the synthesis of apolipoprotein B in the body and the clearance of low-density lipoprotein and triglycerides. The brain tissue of mammals is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids that are beneficial to the formation of normal visual and cognitive functions. Therefore, linseed oil rich in α-linolenic acid can improve memory ability and eye diseases. |
