Introduction |
Flaxseed is native to China and is usually propagated through sowing. Mainly distributed in Gansu, Xinjiang, Qinghai and other places. It is suitable for a mild, cool, and humid climate with a small temperature difference between day and night. From emergence to flowering, there is a lot of rainfall and even distribution, with weak sunlight. From flowering to maturity, there is less rainfall and sufficient light, which is beneficial for the nutritional growth.
Linseed oil, also known as flaxseed oil or flax oil, is a colourless to yellowish oil obtained from the dried, ripened seeds of the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum). The oil is obtained by pressing, sometimes followed by solvent extraction. It is an edible oil in demand as a nutritional supplement, as a source of α-Linolenic acid, (an omega-3 fatty acid). In parts of Europe, it is traditionally eaten with potatoes and quark. It is regarded as a delicacy due to its hearty taste, that enhances the flavour of quark, which is otherwise bland.
The main components of flaxseed are fat, protein, dietary fiber, and other components include minerals α- Linolenic acid, lignin, flaxseed gum, vitamins, etc. Scientific research has shown that flaxseed contains toxic substances such as cyanogenic glycosides, anti VB6 factors, phytic acid, or anti nutritional factors. Cyanogenic glycosides, also known as cyanosides or cyanohydrin glycosides, can be hydrolyzed by enzymes( β- Under the action of glucosidase, cyanide is produced. Raw flaxseed contains different levels of cyanogenic glycosides, which vary greatly depending on variety, place of origin, and environment.

Application |
1.Animal Feed Use--Flax seeds contain rich mineral elements. Potassium content was the highest, even much higher than the orange, peanut kernel, and small shrimp. Content of zinc in flaxseed is also high, zinc is an essential trace element, and plays an important role in maintaining the normal physiological function of the body. Flax seed oil can also be used as raw materials to process food, animal feed.
2. Cosmetics use---Flaxseed oil also contains VE, VE is a strong and effective free radical scavenger,and it has anti-aging and antioxidant effects.Flaxseed contains flavonoids 23 mg / 100g. Flavonoids have lipid-lowering, anti-atherosclerotic good effect. High linseed oil content of unsaturated fatty acids, an iodine value is higher.
3.Cooking use
1).A low-temperature cooking: cooking oil used alone or in combination with daily reconcile cooking, healthier, more delicious.
2). Soup seasoning: in cooked porridge, soup by adding flaxseed oil, enriched and fresh tune.
