Botanical Name: Linum usitatissimum L. Safety Info: This herb should be ingested with at least 6 oz. of liquid. Not for use by persons with bowel obstruction. Product Notes: These seeds have a high oil content, and although the oil is relatively stable while the seed is intact, refrigeration is recommended to slow the oxidation process and prolong the life of the seed. Raw flax (also known as linseed) seeds contain a cyanogenic glycoside which is toxic if consumed in large quantities (20-30 tablespoons per day). The cyanogenic glycosides are volatile and will readily dissipate when flax is cooked.
Flavor - bland, slightly green-grassy taste.
