Flaxseed powder (ground) is made by grinding flaxseeds into a fine powder. Flaxseeds are a rich source of nutrients, including protein, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids.

Here are some benefits of flaxseed powder:
  • May help lower cholesterol levels: Flaxseed powder contains fiber, which may help lower cholesterol levels and improve heart health.
  • May help reduce the risk of some cancers: Some studies associate flaxseed intake with a lower risk of breast cancer, particularly for postmenopausal women. Animal and test-tube studies also show flaxseed to protect against colorectal, skin, blood, and lung cancer.
  • May help maintain a healthy weight: The fiber in flaxseed powder can make people feel less hungry when taken before eating. It might also help limit how much cholesterol the body absorbs from food.
  • May help lower blood pressure: Flaxseed powder is renowned for its ability to decrease blood pressure levels.

There are no specific recommendations for flaxseed intake, but 1-2 tablespoons a day is considered a healthy amount. The recommended daily intake of ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), an omega-3 fatty acid found in flaxseed, is 1.1 g for women and 1.6 g for men. The most common dosage of flaxseed powder is 20-30 grams by mouth daily.

There are potential side effects of consuming flaxseed powder. It may cause digestive problems such as bloating, gas, and diarrhea if consumed in large amounts. Additionally, it may interact with certain medications such as blood thinners and diabetes medications.

Here are some case studies regarding the benefits of flaxseed powder:

  • A review of 15 studies found that supplementing with flaxseed can help reduce total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL or “bad”) cholesterol levels in people with high cholesterol and in people who are overweight.
  • A study published in the Journal of Nutrition found that consuming 30 grams of ground flaxseed daily for six months improved glycemic control in people with type 2 diabetes.
