Flaxseed Oil Powder is a microencapsulated powder ingredient derived from cold-pressed flaxseed (linseed) oil, providing a concentrated and stable source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) — the plant-based omega-3 essential fatty acid. The microencapsulation process protects the highly unsaturated fatty acids from oxidation, extending shelf life and enabling easy incorporation into dry formulations such as capsules, tablets, sachets, and functional foods.
Flaxseed Oil is one of the richest plant-based sources of omega-3 ALA and also contains omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids in beneficial ratios, as well as lignans — phytoestrogen compounds with antioxidant and hormone-modulating properties. It is a key ingredient in vegan omega-3 formulations and women’s health supplements.
Applications:
- Nutraceuticals (vegan omega-3 capsules, heart health supplements, hormonal balance formulations)
- Women’s Health (lignan-containing formulations for menopausal support, hormonal balance)
- Sports Nutrition (essential fatty acid blends, joint and inflammation support)
- Functional Foods (omega-3 fortified health foods, protein bars, bakery enrichment)
